kenmasters1976 Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I have an old burner (LG GSA-4120B) and ImgBurn 2.5.2.0. A few days ago, I bought a DVD-R labeled MATRIX 8x with Disc ID TYG02 and tried to burn some files. During the verification, I got an error so I just trashed the disc. Today, my brother brought me a disc and it turned out to be the same MATRIX 8x TYG02 as they're kinda popular here; he bought it in a different place, though. So I decided to burn the exact same set of files as before and once again I got a verification error, which I thought was a bit weird as I've read good things about discs with an TY ID. Anyway, here comes the weird thing. I was about to trash this disc when I remembered that the other disc had the verification error on exactly the same ZIP file. I inserted the disc again, browsed to that file and then used 7-Zip's Test archive option and it returned no errors meaning the file was readable. I launched again ImgBurn and used the Verify disc option (without an image, though) and it verified that all sectors were readable. So, what's going on here? is it maybe due to an aging burner? faulty HDD? disc errors?. And what about the data on the disc? was it burned correctly or not?. Any comments appreciated. Thanks.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Post the log showing the original verification issue.
kenmasters1976 Posted November 19, 2010 Author Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) I didn't manually save the log 'cause I thought it was just defective discs but I found it in the global ImgBurn log. Anyway, it did also allow me to see that it may just be pure coincidence as the log for the previous disc had the error on a different sector (in the same file but it's a 100 MB file so it's not that strange). I'm guessing it is indeed something with the discs but the fact remains that 7-Zip's verification returned no error.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Maybe the cooling down period was enough to make it so the drive could read the disc (and that's why the standalone verify passed ok).
kenmasters1976 Posted November 19, 2010 Author Posted November 19, 2010 So may I assume that the disc is fine to keep or should I burn the data to another disc?.
kenmasters1976 Posted November 20, 2010 Author Posted November 20, 2010 I guess you're right, spinningwheel. I'll try to verify the content and find out. Thanks spinningwheel and thanks LUK!.
