New batch of DVD+RW, help

[vincepachiano]

For the past 5 years I have been using & re-using a batch of 10 DVD+RW's with no problems

I do a quick erase of an old disc, then burn a new image.

 

I just recently got a new set of Verbatim DVD+RW 4X

When I go to burn an image, it get the message (Disc Needs Formatting)

If I do Tools->Drive->Erase Disc->Quick, I get You Must Perform a Full Erase

If I try a full erase, it hangs at 11%

 

I have taken the same disc into Nero Burning ROM and was able to do a quick erase

Returning to ImgBurn, I get the same (Disc Needs Formatting)

You're wasting your time by quick erasing a DVD+RW disc before then burning straight onto it.

 

ImgBurn defaults to formatting discs properly. Nero doesn't and that's why the disc still aren't reported as having been formatted properly in the disc info text on the right.

 

As to why your drive is unable to complete a format on them properly, that's probably some sort of drive/firmware/media combo issue.

 

Post the log please.
