john lanza Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) I've been using IMG Burn for a few months now without any major issues. Here's my scenerio: I manage a local government access television station where I use DVD Shrink and IMG Burn to transfer files from one DVD to another DVD for on-air playback. Beginning a couple of days ago, these DVD's are not being read by our DVD Carousel player in our master control rack, thus not making it to air. The carousel is fine when it loads DVD's that are created as one-offs in my edit suite. I'm using the same media in both situations. I know it's kind of vague, but I'd appreciate any suggestions.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 We can't help without a log showing you burning and verifying the disc.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 The error from the Plextor drive is its own problem, nothing I can do about that I'm afraid. Try cleaning the drive and using 8x rather than 6x. Of course the drive could just be on it's way out anyway or you ran into bad disc. Your LG drive had no trouble burning and verifying the disc so either the source image file is to blame or the drive in the 'master control room' just isn't as good at reading discs. Again, try using 8x rather than 6x (which resulted in a 4x burn).
