Your burner doesn't recognise that disc, so you'll need to try with other discs until you find one that gets recognised and becomes usable.

Try cleaning the burner with a lens cleaning disc. Also try burning at 6x. If it still doesn't work then you could try crossflashing or buying a new burner that has better support for your blanks.

Update ImgBurn. Try burning at 4x. Try a lens cleaning disc on your burner, or even cleaning manually if you know how to do it. Try with the 2.4x Verbatim blanks if you can find them.

It seems your burner doesn't support that DVD+RW disc. What does ImgBurn show in the status bar? Something similar to "Medium Not Present (Reason)".

Please describe what you want to do (what kind of media you're using/etc).

With ImgBurn in Read mode and that disc in the drive, please copy and paste here all the media information text shown in ImgBurn's main window.

Try burning at 6x or 8x to see if it works. You could also try with the 2.4x Verbatim blanks if you can find them. Another option is to get a new burner, but if you decide to do this, try crossflashing your burner to its real SH-S183A model to see if write quality improves.

Yeah, read that again and this time pay attention as there's more information there that could help you solve your problem.

The burner pauses briefly during burning (i.e. the dips you see in the burn graph) to check if the burn quality is good and makes corrections if necessary. This is done by the drive/firmware and the software has no control over it. The OPC option in ImgBurn's settings asks for the OPC information before burning, and if this errors out it could indicate incompatibilty between your burner/firmware/media combination, but in practice it proved to be not that reliable, so that's why it's disabled by default. Notice though that this option doesn't affect the burner's internal OPC.

Try reading that disc with other drives.

Put the I/O interface back to SPTI, or better yet, reset the program's settings to their default values. Try burning at 6x or 8x. You should also read this -> http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=8000

That's a very unusual error to have when using Test Mode

Not a bug, and you should know by now what Auto calculate does.

Old burner with crappy new media isn't a good combination. Try with Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden blanks, preferably the 8x rated ones, and it should work. Alternatively you could get a new burner that can handle the blanks you have. By the way, you should be using the latest ImgBurn version too.

What does it say in the blue screen? I mean the error code(s).

ImgBurn can read and write all the types of discs that your drive supports (right-click the drive's name and choose Capabilities). Notice, though, that ImgBurn doesn't copy protected discs.

Update your burner's firmware and try burning again.

Post the log of that burn (look in ImgBurn's Help menu).

If your virtual burner doesn't simulate a blank DVD+R DL disc in it then you won't be asked. When you do it with a real burner and blank DVD+R DL media in it then you'll be asked.

Try a lens cleaning disc on that burner to see if it helps, but it would be better if you used the good stuff.

Open ImgBurn, click "Write files/folders to disc", drag and drop your picture(s) into the Source box (alternatively switch Input mode to Advanced and drag and drop from the Explorer pane) then click the big Write button.

Your source disc is dual-layer and your blank disc is single-layer. If you want to make an exact copy of your source disc then you'll need to burn to dual-layer media.
