Follow this guide: ImgBurn Build Mode Notice that this will create a data DVD with your MKV inside. But, if you want to burn a disc that will play on any DVD player, you'll first need to convert that MKV to DVD-Video. You can find guides for this conversion at VideoHelp.com Layer break for data DVDs is calculated automatically, and only for DVD-Video you'll have to choose an optimal layer break.

Can you use ImgBurn in Read mode and make an ISO of the DVD you're having problems with? This way we'll see if there are indeed bad sectors.

Just found it: 'Prefer Format Without Spare Areas' in Write tab of the Settings. Thanks for the light!

The same happens to me: ImgBurn's full erase formats the disc to the preferred capacity. Interestingly enough, DVD Decrypter's full erase works as it should: Current Format Capacity: Sectors: 2.295.072 Size: 4.700.307.456 bytes Time: 510:02:72 (MM:SS:FF) Preferred Format Capacity: Sectors: 2.236.704 Size: 4.580.769.792 bytes Time: 497:04:54 (MM:SS:FF) Maximum Format Capacity: Sectors: 2.295.072 Size: 4.700.307.456 bytes Time: 510:02:72 (MM:SS:FF) For some reason the full erase command(s) that DVD Decrypter sends are able to free the whole 4.38GB of the DVD-RAM.

SPTI is only available in the Windows NT family (NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista) and needs an account with administrator rights to work. You should only use ASPI if your account doesn't have administrator rights, if you're using Windows 9X/ME or, maybe, if you're using ImgBurn in an emulated environment, like Wine, VMWare, QEMU, etc. Overall both have the same speed and they don't interfere with the burn quality. In fact, ImgBurn itself doesn't interfere with burn quality: that's entirely up to your burner and media combination.

Sorry to steal this thread, but this also applies to DVD-RAM and I thought opening another thread wouldn't help much. Feel free to dismember if you want A DVD-RAM formatted with FAT32 will be seen by ImgBurn as an empty disc, and it will overwrite such DVD-RAM with absolutely no warnings, so, please add detection of FAT32 formatted DVD-RAMs, if possible. They're rare but they do exist Also, and I don't know whose fault it is, I burned an ISO to a DVD-RAM with 'Test mode' enabled and the image was really burned to the disc

That screen only appears when DVD-Video content is detected; for normal data DVDs the layer break is calculated automatically.

WinRAR can only read ISO9660/Joliet ISO images, not UDF-only (and maybe others) like this one. For UDF-only and others you should use IsoBuster, UltraISO, MagicISO, etc.

I know that option, but it changes the writer's regional setting, not ImgBurn's, which doesn't have any.

Did this same media work before with your DVD player? You should try better media, like Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden. By the way, where did you set ImgBurn to region 2? As far as I know there's no such option, since ImgBurn can't read commercial DVD-Video discs.

If there was something wrong with the burning process, they wouldn't play on the computer. Also, saying that you use(d) Memorex media doesn't mean much, since what really matters is the dye used by the manufacturer. ImgBurn tells you the DiscID/MediaCode when you insert a disc in your burner, be it blank or burned. You can then search for other users experiences with that media (usually sold under many brands) at VideoHelp.com.

ImgBurn is unable to open 'U.S. A2 1.2 NRG file (ripped by Litespeed)' too. By the way, did you check your image against the MD5 hash given in the page? Flashing firmware is always dangerous, so ensure you have the original image

Which one: 'U.S. A2 1.2 NRG file (ripped by Litespeed)' or 'U.S. XA2 1.3 NRG file (ripped by scorpion90)'?

Have you tried burning at a slower speed?

Please read this topic

You're welcome

ImgBurn doesn't support multi-session images. Use Alcohol 120% to burn it to media or Daemon Tools to mount it to a virtual drive.

ImgBurn sends the 'write speed' command for the speed you've selected, but the burner will use the closest available speed depending on the inserted media.

This is a known problem and is already fixed for the next version. Have a look: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=3706 http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=3727 The 'Don't update IFO/BUP files' option has nothing to do with this problem. Anyway, thanks for reporting it!

He used ImgBurn to make the DVD, and since ImgBurn doesn't handle multi-session, the disc is always closed/finalized.

Very good! This one I'll keep!

Since an ISO image (unlike MP3) isn't a compressed file, the load on the CPU will be the same, no matter if burning from files or from an image.

The WMV must be converted to DVD-Video format before you can burn to DVD and use on standard DVD players. After a quick search, I've found a few guides that explain what you need to do.

ImgBurn isn't a conversion program, so, if you didn't burn DVD-Video data (i.e. VIDEO_TS folder, VIDEO_TS.IFO/VOB, etc) it won't play on standard DVD players. Please give us more details so we can better help you
