Thanks, Lightening, for your reply.
Yes, I just press the tray back into the drive without touching the disk and press OK on the screen as advised. Normally, this works without any problems. It was fine a few days ago. I thought myself it may be a hardware/drive problem, but yesterday I was able to watch a home movie DVD using the same drive.
I see what you mean. Instead of waiting all day for the Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present - Tray Closed) message to disappear, you are suggesting I eject the disk and then reinsert it for X amount of times. I will try that this weekend. Could it not be a problem with the disks themselves?
Thanks again.

Hello
When I try to burn a home movie to a blank DVD disk, halfway through the process when the CD-DVD tray pops out and then pops in (I have to do it
manually), I get the following message:Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present - Tray Closed)
This message lasts forever and in the end, I have to cancel the job. I have now wasted three Verbatim-R disks trying it over and over again. I can see the drive in Windows 10 Explorer and can play a DVD in the same drive. In fact, I used ImgBurn only a few days ago in exactly the same way without any problems.
I have tested a home movie DVD I burnt in ImgBurn and that plays just fine which suggests that my CD-DVD drive, the hardware, is working just fine.
Is the error I get related to this particular home movie file? I haven't done anything different to what I would normally do.
Thank you.

Many thanks to you both - sorted out now!

These are the only files with the name Boot in them that I can see on the Win XP Pro CD after doing a search for 'Boot'.

Do you mean for me to insert a CD with Win XP Pro on it (I have it on a CD and on the desktop in a folder), or do you mean for me to insert a blank CD in the CD tray?
Am I attempting to extract BootImage from my installation files on the desktop and save it to a blank CD?
What should be the file extension of the BootImage file, please, because I will go through the XP Pro files and folders to see if it's there.Sorry, I am a bit confused.
Please disregard those two attachments - I can't seem to delete them
Thanks again

Hello
I am trying to follow this useful tutorial:
Under the Advanced tab as per the tutorial, I have the following: (ImgBurn2)
So far, so good. However, I have had to leave the Boot Image field blank and so I get this message: (ImgBurn1)
because I am not sure which file to select in my Win XP Pro folder which looks like this:
Which file should I be selecting in that folder, please, to go into the Boot Image field under the Advanced tab in ImgBurn?
Thank you.

it depends on the player and the disc you used to burn with. As long as it's a quality disc and the DVD player can play them properly, the player shouldn't have a problem playing it.
Well, that's encouraging - many thanks!

I have Windows 10 with Autoplay on.
If I start up VLC and then File | Open folder and choose VIDEO_TS, the movie plays. But I doubt that will be possible on a TV DVD player. Is it likely that all she will need to do is press the TV DVD's 'Play' button?
Sometimes when I have burnt to a blank disk, the movie plays on my PC, but not on a TV DVD player.
Thanks again.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I am trying to have the DVD begin automatically on my PC, but I will give the burnt disk to a friend who has no PC - she has a TV DVD and the disk should start automatically in that as well.
I have got Windows Media Player and VLC Media Player installed. Sometimes, VLC loads up and other times I have an option.
I will try burning the disk again and see what happens!

Hello
I am trying to burn a movie onto a blank DVD for use with any DVD player.
I was hoping the DVD disk would play automatically after burning but, instead, I can just see this on the disk when I double-click on it. Please see attached.
What am I doing wrong, please?

Hello Cholla
Thanks for your reply.
As you can see from the attached screenshot, I now have my ISO file (3.01GB). So I put as blank DVD in my D drive, open up ImgBurn, select Mode | Write from the menu and Tools | Automatic Write Speed at x8, then click on 'Write image file to disk', then File | Browse for a source file, select my ISO file, and ensure the name of my D drive is in the Destination field.
Does that sound about right?
Thanks.
-
Thanks again, especially for the link. In the guide, it says: Now you need to enter the file name for your image file in the 'Destination' box. In this example, we use 'I:\DVD ISO\STAR_WARS_EPISODE_IV.iso'. You can enter it manually or click the 'Browse for a file...' button.
I do not have an iso files in my VIDEO_TS folder, only 2 BUP files, 2 IFO files, and 4 VOB files.

1 hour ago, LIGHTNING UK! said:
Lots of guides for this in the Guides forum.
So, under Tools I should have 'Build' ticked? (At the moment, I have 'Write' selected).
Thanks again.

Hello
Can I ask, please, what my ImgBurn settings should be for me to burn a movie (video + audio) onto a blank DVD disk. The disk will be used in a TV DVD player and it is important that it starts automatically.
On loading ImgBurn, I choose 'Write image file to disk' and I know the write speed should be set as 8x and that I have to point ImgBurn at the location of my VIDEO_TS folder. The 'Destination' should be the name of my D drive (CD/DVD tray).
Is there anything else I should know, please?
Thank you.

Many thanks for your advice and to you Ch3vr0n for the link - I have downloaded it.

Hello
I have quite a few image 'stills' (jpgs) that I would like to burn to a blank DVD (the person who the disk is for only has a TV DVD player and not a CD player).
What is the best way of doing that, please, in IMGBURN? If possible, the images should appear on his TV screen in a slideshow.
Many thanks
-
Thanks to you both.
I will take a look at the Verbatim site.
I notice that while Verbatim DataLife + CDs are recommended for burning audio (MP3) files, there seems to be no equivalent for burning movie/video files (movie downloads, footage from a camcorder), such as Verbatim DataLife + DVDs.
What would that be, please?
Thanks again for your time.

I take it that the other big brands https://www.tesco.com/direct/technology-mobile/blank-cds-dvds/cat3375479.cat such as Philips and Sony, are also reputable?
-
Yes, I will.
I didn't realise that there are Rolls Royce disks and Ford disks!
I suppose you get what you pay for.
-
That worked!
Thanks for your help!
-
I will give it a go with Verbatim and post back.
Cheers

Thanks.
I have a number of Verbatim DVD+RW disks (4x speed vitesse) which have Windows recovery files on them.
I am happy to clear all data on these disks if you think they would be up to the job.
Thanks

Hello
I would be grateful on what I am doing wrong, please, before I waste anymore blank DVDs (Traxdata 8x).
I have an MP4 movie which plays fine on my PC, but fails right at the end (97% complete) when burning the VIDEO_TS folder to a blank DVD.
This is the error I get:
I am also attaching the log file.
Thanks for any help.

Yes, I think we all agree I need an audio CD-R/RW blank disk.
I will get a set as soon as the holiday is over.
Error: Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present - Tray Closed)

Hello again Lightening
After posting my previous message here, Windows decided to self-configure which took about an hour. Then it installed updates. I was able to then burn a DVD without a problem though I am not sure what Windows has to do with it. Then I burnt a second DVD, but had to push the tray back it a few times after again receiving the Device Not Ready (Medium Not Present - Tray Closed) message.
It reminds me of an old stuttering car that starts first time sometimes but not always, but yes, I am beginning to think it's a CD-DVD ROM drive problem although the PC is not much more than a year old.
Thanks again for your help.
