Imgburn 2.5.0.0 screws up video DVD burns on Asus DRW-2014L1T

[dogshu]

Hi all,

 

I've tried burning a couple of video DVDs with imgburn 2.5.0.0, both from an ISO that imgburn created and from an ISO I got elsewhere, in both cases there are severe video corruption issues that are immediately obvious when playing the DVD. As I said in the title, I'm burning on an Asus DRW-2014L1T. This only seems to be happening since I upgraded to 2.5.0.0 and it asked me to switch to SPTI. Nero burns these ISOs without any video corruption. I've tried switching to ASPI or WNASPI but imgburn tells me they aren't on my system.

 

Any ideas what might be going on here?

ImgBurn doesn't even touch the video/audio of anything you burn, so how could it be the culprit? Care to post the log of one of those burns?

Well, now that I've done a bunch more testing with disks burned by nero and burned by imgburn, it looks like imgburn probably isn't the culprit, I think something is wrong with my DVD player.

 

Sorry for the false alarm. I'll post a log here just for reference:

What's the brand of the media you're using? Use the Verify mode to check that disc against the source image.

 

Next time you're burning leave Verify enabled as that ensures the disc was correctly burned.
