I can burn a data disc, but not read it. x-219

[databurn]

for others,,,,FYI

Burning data discs (no video) 100 % text and jpgs

ok , using w7 (in each case) with Nec AD7170a burner desktop

i am burning 2 gb web pages on do DVD-R 8000 files

never a problem with small number of large files. like videos...

 

but what huge number of files (has 4000 photos and 600 htmls)

i made the dumb mistake of using level 219 in advanced restrictions (im using all 3 , ISO9660-joilet+ udf) i had issues with long names... and nesting.depths.

 

i find out that my 7170a can not read the disc. after a burn, so made 2 discs, same fails. Coasters are fun.?

tried disk in old 2004 laptop Dell , failed

then, when over to wifes desktop with Toshiba 5112 dvd reader, and it works like gang busters.same, works with sons NEC ND3550A. (a fulltest)

 

lesson learned.

i guess i should have ISO imaged and burned the whole folder after zipping, it.

and not use x 219 extreme and RTM on that too. i should...

just because you can write it , you may not be able to read it, even in the same drive, (ouch) (event viewer says block errors in w7)

Please post the log of that burn.

What you write to the disc has no effect on its readability.

 

If it burns and verifies ok, you should be good to go.
