douirc Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) I have a HL-DT-ST GP08LU30 1.01 and I'm trying to set the booktype to DVDROM but when I choose LG from the tabs and choose Drive (For DVD+R DL Media) it says: unknown (FAILED!) Reason: Illegal Mode For This Track If I chose Advanced, it explains some instructions and gives an example: Drive OEM: Samsung Drive ID String: SONY DVD RW DRU-830A I don't really understand what it's asking me to do, but I'm wondering if this will help me override the issue with setting the booktype.
