Setting Book Type Problem

[jwadle]

I am burning ISOs to DVD+R DL discs and want to set the book type to DVD-ROM as shown in the attached screen shot.

 

This setting says it's successful, but the resultant burned DVD is still DVD+R DL not DVD-ROM.

 

My system is Win 8.1 Update 1 and DVD drive is Samsung (TSST) SH-224DB.

 

Can anyone help?

You shouldn't have to touch that stuff, the program does it automatically.

 

Burn and verify a DVD+R DL disc and then post the log please.

The burn log is below.  I note that the resultant DVD shows the following when read by ImgBurn:

 

Physical Format Information (ADIP - L0):

Disc ID: MKM-003-00

Book Type: DVD+R DL

 

Physical Format Information (ADIP - L1):

Disc ID: MKM-003-00

Book Type: DVD+R DL

 

Physical Format Information (Last Recorded - L0):

Disc ID: MKM-003-00

Book Type: DVD-ROM

 

Physical Format Information (Last Recorded - L1):

Disc ID: MKM-003-00

Book Type: DVD-ROM

 

Is this corrrect for a DVD-ROM.  What is the difference between ADIP and Last Recorded book type?

 

Thanks for your assistance.

The ADIP value doesn't change, it's the 'Last Recorded' one that's important.

[laserfan]

In other words OP it appears to me that your disc has indeed been recorded as book type DVD-ROM. What makes you think it did not--does ImgBurn's Read mode show also DVD-ROM?

 

 

 

You shouldn't have to touch that stuff, the program does it automatically.

 

LUK I must ask what "automatically" means because I just tried some new Memorex DVD+R discs and found that ImgBurn sets them to DVD+R booktype, where before all I'd seen from my burns with Verbatims is DVD-ROM. I don't know if DVD+R vs. DVD-ROM book type makes any difference with my player yet but I did try setting my LG player to assert DVD-ROM for these DVD+R discs and it did work.

 

So how did the program decide in this case that the book type should be DVD+R? And in looking at my DVD+R DL discs I see they've been booktyped as "DVD+R DL". Sorry LUK but I'm seeking understanding that has not arrived with me yet...should I change the setting from Normal to DVD-ROM for both disc types?

Where possible and for 'known' drives (or at least makes of drives with certain device identifiers), the program always attempts to issue the commands to booktype DVD+R, DVD+RW and DVD+R DL media to DVD-ROM. That's the 'automatically' bit. That info can be seen in the log at the start of the burn.

 

You shouldn't have to load up the booktype feature and do it manually - unless you've disabled the 'Auto Change Book Type' option on the 'Write' tab in the Settings.

Thanks LUK for the explanation, and the pointer--oddly, my Auto 'Change Book Type' setting was indeed un-checked!
