Recommended Posts

Hello, I  am trying to burn  a Blu-ray movie folder to a Verbatim 50GB disk, and keep getting an error message, as shown on the attached image.

 

Can anyome please advise what this error message means, and how I might get around it?

Sorry, I didn't have a chance to look at your log yesterday.

 

I have now though :)

 

Try updating the firmware on the drive to v1.66

How many of those discs have you actually burnt?

 

Can it burn single layer BD discs ok?

 

You could try cleaning the drive with a cleaning disc to see if that makes a difference - especially if it's worked ok (several times) with the same MID discs in the past.

 

If it keeps failing on the 'VERBAT-IMd-000' MID discs, you may have to try some different ones... or buy a new drive that doesn't have a problem with the ones you're using now.

 

p.s. You can update the firmware on your other drive too...

Many thanks for this thoughtfiul and very helpful reply.

 

It is only with this batch of Verbatim disks  that I  had trouble with the burner - never previously, and I  ahve been using it for 4 years.

 

One of the first things I  did was to clean the drive with a new cleaning disk

 

Thanks for the link, I  upgraded the firmware.

 

I  tried to burn a bd folder to disc, but got the same problems, failing to write at the very beginning.

 

I  then change to a TDK disk, and it burned perfectly first time.

 

The burner is getting near the end of tis life, so have just purchased a Panasonic BDR-208 EDK. Will use that for burning, and the Sony for reading

 

thanks for your great support

 

Jill
