"Status: Incomplete" on TDK 8x ScratchProof DVD+R

[polopony]

You may also find that if you can somehow burn slightly less you won't be on the outer edges of the media and then you might not get write errors when it's trying to write the lead out stuff.

I see, thanks for the suggestion.

 

I'm going to look at catching the problems during polling sometime later on today...

Great, thank!

 

One weird thing is that when a manual try for closing an "Incomplete" DVD failed, it may succeed on a later try. The disc will then be fully recognized and works fine, but ImgBurn reads some strange properties from the "Last Recorded" Physical Format Informations:

[LIGHTNING UK!]

OK.

The yellow and green curves show the Write speed (although I'm not sure what the green one is showing), while the turquoise and magenta curves show the Verify speed.

 

The PI/PO scanning results shown above have been made by DVDInfoPro 4.56. I'm not sure what these results exactly mean. Maybe the Quality Rating of 84.23% means not a very good result.
