lighttear Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Hi, I succesfully burned a personal DVD video on a DVD+R DL medium, but unfortunately I discovered that booktype was set erroneously to DVD+R DL anyway ... Before burning, I checked that in Tools -> Settings -> Write "change booktype automatically" was checked. Under Tools -> Device -> change Booktype I tried query status of my Samsung SH-B083L SB01 device, but I got the message "No way to query current settings !" I was thinking that this Samsung combo DVD writer by default set book type to DVD-ROM so I can't understand what I did wrong. I'm asking if ImgBurn 2.5.6.0 has an incompatibility (regarding book-type) whis this particular device. Can someone answer me ? Many thanks in advance Cheers L.

mmalves Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 ImgBurn automatically booktypes DVD+R DL media to DVD-ROM on Samsung drives, and, on top of that, the drive should automatically booktype to DVD-ROM by itself. In the 'Change BookType' dialog, select 'Samsung', then 'Change (For DVD+R DL Media)', then select 'DVD-ROM' and click the button 'Change'. Is it successful or not? Also, where are you seeing that the burned disc wasn't booktyped? With ImgBurn in Write mode and that disc in the drive, can you copy and paste here the media information text shown inside ImgBurn's window? By the way, you should install the latest ImgBurn.

Hi, many thanks for Your help Before burning my image I didn't try bitsettings since I had "change booktype automatically" flagged in Imgburn and thought that in any case device firmware would have done it automatically.

Following Your suggestion I installed now latest 2.5.7.0, inserted blank DVD+R medium (I have no more DL), tried "manual" bitsetting and ImgBurn reported "Success" So the question is: is it really changed to DVD-ROM booktype ? Why this wasn't done automatically by ImgBurn and/or device firmware ? Many thanks for Your support L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Strange as it may seem, 'SAMSUNG' isn't a normal device identifier for Samsung drives and it wasn't in the lookup table for mapping drive names to the different commands used for the booktype/advanced settings stuff!

Curious. Wouldn't it be possible to add the string SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083L in the advanced box and see if it book types then? The drive uses the Mediatek MT1939LSU controller, also used by LiteOn for its iHES208 BD combo drive. A rebadged Lite-On? http://www.cdrinfo.com/Sections/Reviews/Specific.aspx?ArticleId=27142 Looking at this thread - it seems to book type with firmware ver SB00. http://www.team-xecuter.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-63768.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, what do You mean ? That with current B01 Samsung official firmware and latest ImgBurn I will continue to have my DVD+R DL not book-typed as DVD-ROM ? Thanks for Your support L.

No. Do this in the current version of ImgBurn to trigger the book type function. Look in this guide http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6392&st=0&p=66934&&do=findComment&comment=66934 and jump to section 4.2.13.9 Advanced - replace the example in that one with these values: Select Samsung and add this string SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
