texasjackson Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I am having issues with setting the book type from DVD+R to DVD-ROM. I have both an LG BH14NS40 and a LiteOn iHBS112 2 CL0K that I use for burning CD-R, DVD-R, and BD-R. I typically burn with the LG and scan with the iHBS112. I want to set my DVD+R to DVD-ROM to make them more compatible with playing in our minivan (for my kids). Are neither of my two drives able to change the book type? I would also like to reset DVD+R DL to DVD-ROM if that is possible. Is it? If it matters, I the media that I use for DVD is either YUDEN000 T02 DVD+R 8X or MKM-001-00 DVD+R DL 2.4X.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I'm sure the LiteOn can... and it'll be done automatically. Not sure about the LG.
texasjackson Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Lightning UK! You are correct. The LiteOn iHBS112 automatically reset to DVD-ROM. I have been unable to get the LG BH14NS40 to reset to DVD-ROM. The burn from the iHBS112 drive (reset to DVD-ROM) works in my mini-van and the LG burn does not. I burned the same movie to each drive as a test. The quality scan (PIE/PIF data) was much better on the LG burn than the iHBS112; but for movies that my kids want to watch in the van, I will burn with the LiteOn since it will book type to DVD-ROM.
