The issue seems to be that the samsung SH-S182D has issues with DVD-R. Apparently the leadin is written improperly, and the drive can't read the discs it has written on certain media (whereas the work are readable with my Sony DVD player). Back to the store the drive goes. Thanks for your help, rob

So I'm using ImgBurn Version 2.3.0.0 with a samsung SH-S182D burning on TYG02 discs. The burn completes just fine, the verify fails on the first sector (see below). When I cancel out of ImgBurn, and start it up again, it sez the disk is empty [Nero thinks it's empty too, but fails on it]. I've tried uninstalling and installing ImgBurn, and get the same results. However NeroExpress works fine with the same drive and media. Any ideas? rob I 19:09:30 ImgBurn Version 2.3.0.0 started!
