Cant burn to DVD

[The Incredible Bulk]

I'm new to this so I'm still learning and here is my problem.

 

I am using DVD Shrink 3.1 to rip a DVD and ImgBurn 2.0.0 to burn it on a SONY DVD RW DRU-820A 2.0c.

 

First off, I can't even get it to consider burning to a DVD-R. Here is the error message I keep getting:

 

I/O Error!

 

Device [0:0:0] SONY DVD RW DRU-820A 2.0c (USB)

 

ScsiStatus: 0x02

Interpretation: Check Condition

 

CDB: 2A 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00

Interpretation: Write (10) - Sectors: 0-31

 

Sense Area: 70 00 03 00 00 00 00 0A 00 00 81 00 73 03 00 00 00 00

Interpretation: Power Calibration Error

 

Second, I tried using a DVD-RAM instead and it went through the entire writing processto 100%, only to give an error at the end and produce a DVD that read as "UNFORMAT" on my Panasonic DMR E85H DVD recorder/player.

 

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I'm hoping we can see the full log please? But check firmware, media quality, DMA and burn speed (especially on a USB).

 

And welcome to ImgBurn Forum!!

Now the problem I'm running into is that after it goes through this entire process and I put the DVD into my Panasonic DMR-E85H, it reads "UNFORMAT" on the face of the player and it says on-screen that the disc is not properly formatted.

 

What I had done prior to all this was use DVD Shrink 3.1 and selected the target device as an ISO Disc Image instead of a Hard Disk Folder. Which is more effective? Which is the better option? If I could get a quick step-by-step, it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks again.

Also, I forgot to add that I had to use the "custom compress" feature to make sure that I could fit it on a Panasonic 4.7 GB DVD-RAM and I made it as small as possible. Could this be part of the problem?

what speed were you trying to write to the dvd-r ?

I had the write speed set to the default which was MAX.

I'm not sure DVDRAM will work the same way a normal DVD-R or DVD+R would do. The player may try to read the disc in the true DVDRAM way and not as if it's a DVD Video disc. (Sorry for being a bit vague, I don't have any real experience with standalones / dvdram etc).

 

Your original power calibration error is due to a hardware/firmware/media mismatch. Assuming your firmware is up to date, you need to source some discs that your drive supports properly. The easiest way to do that is to find someone else with that drive, who is getting decent result.

As such I would recommend you pay the cdfreaks forum a visit. They have forums for most makes of drives.

Basically though, you should look to buy some discs using the MCC or TY (Taiyo Yuden) dyes.

When I try to use a DVD-R, this is the error message I get:

 

DeviceIoControl (FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME) Failed!

 

Unable to lock volume for exclusive access

 

Reason: Access is denied

 

Options [CANCEL] [TRY AGAIN] [CONTINUE]

 

 

After I press CONTINUE, I get the error message from the first post above, which is why I switched over to DVD-RAM. It will at least take me to the end of the process, even if the product seems to be unusable.
