radorn Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I'm starting to suspect newer versions of ImgBurn have problems with producing working gamecube burns, while it previously worked perfectly. Unfortunatelly I don't remember which version I used last time I had it work, but I know last time it was some earlier version (possibly something earlier than 2.5.0.0). I am now the owner of 4 Verbatim DVD+R coasters. The last one I tried, I ripped one of my WORKING burns and burned it again, and the new burn doesn't work. Here's the data of the "ORIGINAL" WORKING BURN HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B A117 (ATA)Current Profile: DVD+R Disc Information: Status: Complete State of Last Session: Complete Erasable: No Sessions: 1 Sectors: 712,880 Size: 1,459,978,240 bytes Time: 158:27:05 (MM:SS:FF) Supported Write Speeds: 4x; 8x TOC Information: Session 1...

Any clues as to what's causing the production of coasters?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Nope, everything looks fine to me. Maybe your drive is just producing lower quality burns and the console can't read the disc properly.
