illegal mode for this track

[Joshua]

Ok, I have been using DvDFlick with imgburn My media is verbatim dvdr. And it has just started now that I have updated imgburn. I can still burn music and files just not my home movies. I am having trouble with getting the log posted. But I have tried all burning speeds 1x 2x 4x 8x and 16x with the same problem. Any help out there?

Keep trying with the log please, we need it.

 

You only have to copy + paste everything from the log window once the drive has bombed out... it's should be easy.

The first error is the real one. In your case, that is:

 

W 03:36:20 Failed to Write Sectors 460288 - 460319 - Reason: Peripheral Device Write Fault

 

CMC dye disc are NOT Verbatim.

 

I 03:30:30 Destination Media Type: DVD+R (Disc ID: CMC MAG-M01-00) (Speeds: 2.4x, 4x, 6x, 8x)

 

Matshita drives are never any good (nor are laptop drives in general) and you're using cheapo media. Invest in some decent Taiyo Yuden / Verbatim disc and you'll get much better burns.

 

You should try cleaning your drive too.

yes i switched disks because I got tire of wasting my good one but that was the same result. I'll try cleaning and then buying a new one..

 

Thanks again for your help. Now once I get a new dvdrw rom and it still does the same thing what would be wrong with it.

It won't do the same thing, don't worry

 

Just make sure you get a decent drive - a Pioneer 217 or something should do the trick.
