Hello, When I try to make image file from disc - ImgBurn freeze. I 01:28:29 ImgBurn Version 2.5.5.0 started! I 01:28:29 Microsoft Windows Server 2008 "R2", Standard x64 Edition (6.1, Build 7601 : Service Pack 1) I 01:28:29 Total Physical Memory: 4 193 324 KB - Available: 2 469 724 KB W 01:28:29 Duplex Secure's SPTD driver can have a detrimental effect on drive performance.

Hi, This suggestion has two aspects: - add an option to create image files sparsely - add the ability to scan existing image files, marking the all-zero regions as holes Some discs contain a large amount of all-zero data. For example, many game DVDs contain hundreds of megabytes or gigabytes of all-zero data. When creating an ISO image from a DVD like that, writing all the all-zero data to disk wastes disk space and time (especially if writing to, say a slow USB hard drive). If ImgBurn had an option to write image files sparsely that would save disk space and improve working with the file later (it will read faster since the all-zero data does not need to be actually read from disk). In most respects sparse files work just like the corresponding non-sparse file; MD5 checksums match, and all programs should work with them fine. They just use less disk space. NTFS has supported sparse files since Windows 2000, and most Linux filesystems do too (so anyone using ImgBurn with Wine/Linux could benefit). It should be quite easy to implement: - Use FSCTL_SET_SPARSE on creating the image file - For each chunk of data to be written, if the data is all-zero, seek forward by that amount in the output file instead of writing the data. For info about sparse files in Windows see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365566%28v=vs.85%29.aspx And for better/more detailed coverage see http://www.flexhex.com/docs/articles/sparse-files.phtml http://www.codeproject.com/KB/files/SparseFiles.aspx I mentioned that many game DVDs contain large amounts of all-zero data. If a user has already backed up many such discs, the image files will occupy many GB more than needed on the hard disk. In Windows, it's possible to create "holes" in an already-existing file using FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA. Using that, ImgBurn could optimise the disk space usage of existing image files: - Use FSCTL_SET_SPARSE to tell Windows that the file is sparse. - Repeat for the whole image file: Read chunk of data. If it's all-zero, use FSCTL_SET_ZERO_DATA to make a hole there. That would free up all the wasted disk space in the image files.

I need to create a BD image from Files on HDD. As far as I can tell there is no "guide" for this. The Guide for "BD from DISC" is over 2 years old. I was under the impression that IB had Blu-Ray support built in by now... If it is please illuminate those features for me as I can find NO direct support for Blu-Ray in the latest version 2.5.5.0... Please Advise. Thanks

Is there a way for ImgBurn to batch-create image files? I have 3 optical-disc drives and want to load them up at once, line them up in ImgBurn, and click go once to have it create all 3 image files on my hard drive sequentially and automatically. Reason is I'm backing up several hundred audio CDs to individual hard-drive image files (cue/bin format). Doing the batch file-create process would cut down on the needed SW interface-tending by two-thirds. Cue/bin seems to be the best image format for audio CDs (as far as max data preservation; file size not an issue for me); if anyone has other advice regarding that, that's also welcome. Thanks!

I'm trying to create an ISO image of my children's Zoo Tycoon CD-ROMs, so they can play without the physical media. I have two different DVD drives and one BluRay drive--all three give me the same errors using ImgBurn v2.5.5.0. I select "Create image file from disc" and change no other options. It successfully reads the first 800 sectors (1,638,400 bytes), with a good read rate, then the read rate drops to zero with multiple retries before finally displaying the following I/O Error: ScsiStatus: 0x02 Interpretation: Check Condition CDB: BE 00 00 00 03 2C 00 00 01 10 00 00 Interpretation: Read CD - Sector: 812 Sense Area: 70 00 03 00 00 00 00 0A 00 00 00 00 11 05 00 00 00 00 Interpretation: L-EC Uncorrectable Error Any ideas? I've made sure the LightScribe service (for my HP drive) is not running, and that AnyDVD HD is not running. This is on a Windows 7 64-bit system with 8 GB of RAM and an AMD Phenom II X4 940 processor at 3.00 GHz. I've tried manually selecting a lower read rate, and ensured the discs are clean. Both the Zoo Tycoon and the Zoo Tycoon Marine Edition discs do the same thing at the same sector. Could this be a copy protection issue?

I have a home movie that I uploaded and saved as an .mpg file. I would like to put that on a regular DVD disc so that it can be played on an ordinary (NTSC) DVD player. I don't need to do any editing, and I don't want any titles or menus. Can I use ImgBurn to do this? If not, can you recommend freeware programs that can do this? Thanks for your help. ...

Since updating to 2.5.4.0 Ive noticed a considerable drop in the read speed when I create an Image from disc. What used to take <30 mins now takes well over an hour. Is there anyway to force the read speed higher to cut the time? The discs were all orignally burnt via IMGburn and verified ok but as I say it used to take 30 mins on average on earlier versions but since update has gone to a crawl. Its about as quick as 1:1 real time copying. Sucks quite frankly. I know that making Images etc at 1x speed is supposed to be the best/most accurate way of doing this but Im not interested in that tbh. Worked fine at good speed before updating so why has it suddenly gone "back to analogue" on the speed front. Any advice welcome. Thanks.

when trying to create image from xbox360 disks(tried three) the program starts ok, then stops at sector 110256 with message 'Illegal mode for this track' Read(10).

Hello! I am helping my brother with a project to take individual recorded sessions from Hi-8 that was converted to DVD years ago(such as taking out old girlfriend vacation titles, with titles with current wife). The discs do not have any copy protection, and have Standard DVD structure. If we want to take separate "clips" that are separate "titles" on a DVD menu, which set of files will I need to make an ISO file playable on one of the new media players that output to HDMI? So far it has been hit and miss with some files generating a playable ISO file, and others not being recognized. Do I just need the related numerical BUP, IFO and VOB for each separate "title" on the DVD menu, or do I also need to include any of the Video_TS files as well. Thanks. So far I have been indescriminate as to the files included, such as Video_TS or not. Before I generate more non usable ISO files, I need to find out what I need to do, so we can finish this project. Thank you in advance. See attached pdf screenshot of editor window for a typical multi-title DVD. Great program by the way!!! Sample.pdf

Hello all! I'm new to the forum so let me tell you what I'm doing and where I'm encountering an issue. I have ripped disc one of Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring (my copy) to a .VOB, .IFO, and .SUB file using DVDFab. I placed all of the files in the VIDEO_TS folder just as the guide says. Files are here: C:\FELLOWSHIP_D1\VIDEO_TS\ I open the program, select build mode, then click the "Browse for a folder..." button and navigate to the above folder. This is where my screens differ from the guide. It appears as though the version ImgBurn I'm using is newer than the one in the guide. In the "Source" box, I now see: C:\FELLOWSHIP_D1\ This leads me to believe that all of the files in that folder (The VIDEO_TS folder and all containing files) will be the root directory on the disc. When I click the calculator, I get the following message: You have only selected one folder... Does the C:\FELLOWSHIP_D1\ folder content represent what should be the root directory content? I'm sure you know the rest of the message. I have an option to click Yes, or No. Selecting Yes, which seems to be the appropriate response, produces and image with only one folder and no files. Selecting No gives me another error which states that the file cannot be added to the image because it's larger than the file size allowed by the file system. (It's a 6gig file) So, either way, this is not working like the guide says it should which leads me to believe that the guide is outdated. Can anyone offer suggestions? Thanks, Garrett

Hi, I think this is an issue with not having the right filters or something. I'm getting these error messages when I try to add a WAV file to the list of files to create a cue sheet from. I can play the WAV files fine in Media Player and VLC. Any suggestions what I can do? This was working fine a day or two ago but since then I got a virus and had to format and re-install Windows XP SP3. Please help, Imgburn is such a great program I really don't want to have to find an alternative. Many thanks, John.

In v 2.5.2.0 when you created a CUE file, the browse for file remembered the last directory you picked when creating a 2nd CUE file. In version 2.5.3.0 it always defaults to the document library.

Hy. i have an ISO UDF image file (created by ImgBurn from a TS file). ok. i would like to get a dvd (with dvd folder video_ts...). I opened ImgBurn> burn image to disk. and....I get the same TS file on my dvd+r dl!!! no. i would get a "normal" dvd+r dl for playback on a standalone bd player. can you help me? also file TS (from dvb-t) > iso 1:1 (without reencoding nor compressing it!) > "normal" dvd structure for standalone dvd player. is it possible? thanks a lot.

Howdy folks! ImgBurn is hanging on me. (Windows XP, service pack 3) I get the "Program not responding" dialog when I try to close it. This happens when I try to load a CUE file that I created myself. It also happens when I try to have ImgBurn create a CUE file. The common denominator seems to be MP3 files. The CUE file that I created references MP3 files, and the program hangs when I try to add MP3 files to the new CUE sheet that ImaBurn is creating. Know that I bought the MP3 files from Amazon, if that has anything to do with it. I also got it hung up when I tried to right-click on a CUE file and open it with ImgBurn. It said it was initializing the command-line interface or something like that when it hung. Since that happened, I uninstalled 2.5.2.0 and installed 2.5.3.0. Quick! Call me a guru! ImgBurn.log

Hey guys, I just used ImgBurn for the first time, and it created a 7.2gb ISO from a regular DVD. Why so big? How can I get it down to under 4.7gb? Thanks in advance.

I followed the guide How to create a single layer DVD Video image file using ImgBurn but was unsuccessful. I was able to copy the contents of a DVD (not protected) to the hard drive. My purpose was to create an image minus some of the content. I wanted to get the content down to under 4.7 GB so that I could burn to DVD rather then using a dual layer DVD. I dumped several of the Video VTS files but when following the directions ImgBurn seemed to balk and would not bild. One of several errors along the way was that ImgBurn could not find one of the VTS files that I removed : ) I am guessing I need to edit something such as an IFO file but I was unable to determine which one and I could not open them in WordPad and Notepad just looked like gibberish to me. Is there a guide available that will show step by step how to remove files from the Video folder and then burn an iso file from that? I have attached the error log. TIA.

How do I create a bootable .iso image from a OEM Windows 7 64bit Professional DVD using ImgBurn so I can save it to my desktop and that I can later add it to the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool and create a bootable USB? I tried using the write method of creating an image and the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool doesn't recognize it as a valid .iso image

Its not possible for me to create a bootable grub2 cd with imgburn. I build the iso image and test it with a vmware and i get only a black screen at boot. I take a grub2 image called super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso from here: http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10921 and take the grub folder from the iso for my data cd. In the grub folder is a file called eltorito.img. I take this as bootimage with options no emu, load segment 07C0 and 1 sector. With cdrtools this works immediately - no problem, but with imgburn this doesn´t work.

I'm trying to create a bootable recovery DVD for my father in law's PC. I tried to make it using its utility and drive but sadly the latter developed a fault and was unable to write to a disk. As he doesn't want to create disks (and thus, not replace the drive), I copied the recovery files with the intention of creating the disk on my PC using ImgBurn. And that's where I've come horribly stuck... I've tried following the guides and searched this forum but nothing I try seems to work. I have all the recovery files (1.8Gb) in a folder and have a boot.img file (47,620Kb) in the i386 folder. Without going into great detail, my efforts have failed dismally and regrettably the ImgBurn Guide on making a bootable disk is written for better minds than mine. Could anyone please tell me (in simple steps for a simple mind) how I can build and burn these files into a bootable recovery DVD? Thanks in anticipation... ******************************************************************************************************************************** It's ten days after I posted the above. Lots of views but depressingly no replies. Just silence. If my request is either unspeakably stupid, technically impossible or embarrassingly naive, couldn't someone say so? Or have I said something to cause offence?

Can ImgBurn be used to create an ISO image file from files and folders on my hard drive? I followed the instructions in the guide, but instead of making an ISO file it made a .mds file, a .i00 file and a .i01 file.

Hi there. I'm attempting to create an ISO from audio CDs. I've tried with different CDs and always get the error message: "As Yoda would say...<snip> ISO is not an appropriate container format for the current disk...<snip> I will not create a true (MODE!/2048) ISO image.... " I am using normal cds some new some old, spoken word and music. My dvd drive is a Qubz one...it is named hp DVDRAM GT20L USB Device in Windows 7, so might be based on Hewlett Packard. Can you help? Thanks.

Hi All, Ik like ImgBurn for its strait forward style and reusing already registered audio converters. What i miss is the possibility after assembling a cue file to create an real disk image. Now the only possibility is to save the cue-file and burn it directly to CD. I like to create an image before burn it in real. Is this possible? Thanks in advance, Ben

I am trying to create a bootable ISO image of my newly installed Windows Server 2008 system. I installed ImgBurn, put C: in the source, defined D:\BackupofC.iso and let it rip. Looks like it is creating the ISO (which I intend to make bootable using MagicISO). Of course ImgBurn can't copy ALL files because some are "being used" so, here's the question: Do ALL files need to be captured? What can be done about those "in use" files? Is this the best way to do this? Thanks.

Can I use ImgBurn to create a CD-Extra disc ? If not, can this feature be added ?
