Your drive is just having trouble finding correct laser power setting for burning that media.

 

I assume you've tried burning at 8x too? Same issue?

 

TYG02 are good discs and you've got the latest firmware. As such, you're pretty much out of luck.

 

Search google if you want to learn more about 'Power Calibration' errors.

yep i tried 8x but got a slightly different error. something like an io error.

well im currently using dvd region+css with dvd shrink 3.2 to make iso's then imgburn.

before upgrade of imgburn this combo was doing fine which is why i was wondering if it was a bug of sorts.

i cant go back to old version to comfirm. since shrink is getting more out dated every day what would be a good iso freeware maker for imgburn?

This is not an ISO building problem, as such shrink should still be fine.

 

Just try some different disks, even tho TY's are good, your drive / firmware may not like them, it happens, my LG drive doesn't like them.

 

I tried Verbs with MCC dye and never had a problem, give it a try.
