ElBoricua433 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 How Do You Change The Booktype to DVD-ROM in ImgBurn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 that would depend on if your burner supports bitsetting. you can find a little book on the bottom right hand side of the gui ,click on it and see if your drive is listed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElBoricua433 Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 if I create an image with another program and I put it to burn with ImgBurn, will ImgBurn automatically turn into a DVD-ROM thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 once you set it in imgburn it will remember the setting unless your drive is an LG which resets itself after every reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lfcrule1972 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 In which case either leave your PC on all the time or remember to reset the booktype before you burn ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Do you have the latest firmware for your drive? It's v.A105. Your log will tell you what version it is. Or post it here and we'll tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenadjian Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Just to add, I run 4 LG drives, and I DO have to set them every time after a reboot. Just the way they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElBoricua433 Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 yep, mines got updated to the latest firmware update, yo is DVD-R supposed to get turned into DVD-ROM or is it just the +R's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornholio7 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 +r , you cant change -r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I also have an LG - I don't suppose there is a way to parse a command via CLI to set the booktype? This would be a very useful feature for me and my fellow LG'ers. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 There's a little program you can add to your startup that'll do it - incase you're not already aware of it I think I read about it over at the cdfreaks forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 (edited) I'll search there. Thanks mate. EDIT: Found Alexnoe's terrific little utility. Thanks a bunch!!!!

blutach Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 No thanks to me - LUK! and Chewy actually pointed me in the right direction. But isn't the prog a godsend for us LG'ers?? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenadjian Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Not that I'm ungreatfull blu, but I'm quite happy to set my drive after a reboot rather than run an another app. I mean after all it's not all that hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 That would annoy me having to keep resetting it !! But then I am lazy and would happily run an app every time !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 The apps runs in literally a flash. Opens a tiny dos box and does its stuff. If you blink, you'll miss it. But each to our own. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 just a batch file right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Yeah each to their own blu - just being lazy your way sounds preferable to me. I know I would forget to do it when I really needed it otherwise !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 (edited) just a batch file right? Even easier than that. You stick this tiny prog anywhere, Get the appropriate command, and it stick it in HKLM\Software\M$\Windows\CV\Run. A batch file does this for you. Total setup of the process - about 1 minute. Time to run at startup - a flash. Just gotta make sure you don't delete or move the prog (hide it away somewhere).
