Disk ejecting at 10% with no errors?

[wpark2419]

For the second time in a row my dvd has been ejected while burning. For whatever reason it is ejecting at 10% and there are no error messages in my log. I close the dvd tray and it still says "writing sectors" but the time remaining is unknown and it's been sitting for just over 30 minutes. My dvd burner light isn't on and there's no sound coming from it so it's doing nothing. I haven't changed any settings since I downloaded imgburn months ago and have no idea what's wrong. It's probably no help, but here is my log. Any suggestions?

I just updated imgburn in hopes to fix the problem, but now it's ejecting while writing the lead in.

[mmalves]

I've seen that happen when the enclosure isn't able to provide enough power to the burner, and since it's a slimline burner, are you using one of those enclosures that plug to two USB ports? Are both USB connectors fully inserted?

 

If it has an external power supply then such power supply may have developed a fault.

[wpark2419]

My burner is connected with only one usb cord. I think that it came with another cord that plugs into an outlet. I'll look for that tomorrow and plug it in and try it. After one more ruined disk it burned just fine. But then while trying to burn a different disk right after, it just stopped. Imgburn says it's writing sectors but it isn't. It didn't eject this time, but I can open and close the burner and it doesn't change anything on imgburn. I can't figure out if the problem is my burner or the program. Thanks for the help though, I'll try my other cord too.

The program isn't ejecting it, the drive is doing that by itself.
