JMSFedaykin Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Hello All! I did a search but I can't seem to find anything similar to my problem. I've got a Pioneer DVR-A07XL drive and for the life of me I cannot get it to correctly identify Verbatim 8X DVD+R DL. I've updated the firmware through all the revisions from 1.10 to 1.22 and it still comes up as "Incompatible Medium Inserted." Here's the ImgBurn Log: ; //****************************************\\; ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 - Log; Sunday, 03 November 2013, 13:38:10; \\****************************************//;;I 13:37:45 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!I 13:37:45 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3)I 13:37:45 Total Physical Memory: 1,571,296 KiB - Available: 373,688 KiBI 13:37:45 Initialising SPTI...I 13:37:45 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices...I 13:37:45 -> Drive 1 - Info: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-107D 1.22 (D:) (ATA)I 13:37:45 Found 1 DVD±RW!I 13:38:10 Close Request AcknowledgedI 13:38:10 Closing Down...I 13:38:10 Shutting down SPTI...I 13:38:10 ImgBurn closed! And here's the info from DVRFlash: Drive Information: Description : PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-107D Firmware Rev : 1.22 Firmware Date : 05/09/08 Manufacturer : PIONEERDrive is in normal mode.Additional Drive Information: Serial Number : DCDC005356WLInterface type : ATADVR generation : 0007 Kernel type : PIO_ADV Normal type : PIO_ADVKernel version : 0002 Status : RPC-2 (region locked) Region : 1 Changes : 4 region changes remaining 4 vendor resets remaining state is 'Region set' Is there some setting or something that I'm missing in ImgBurn? It's my understanding that this is basically just a function of the drive and firmware, but I thought I'd post here in case I'm just missing something obvious. I also posted over at The Firmware Page to see if they could give me any advice. I should also mention that I've checked the drive with Verbatim CD-R's and Verbatim DVD+R Single Layers and it works fine. The only thing I haven't tried yet are the 2.4x DL Verbatims. Thanks In Advance! -J

JMSFedaykin Posted November 4, 2013 Author Posted November 4, 2013 Wow! It didn't even occur to me. I just double checked the order on Newegg and the model I got wasn't actually the model I ordered... Well, that sucks! But thanks for the info! -J
