pgielen Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 I read some threads here about problems with the Asus BW-16D1HT and since I also have these problems, I must conclude that Imgburn does not work with this drive. Should I give up? Here is my log: I 10:35:57 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!

pgielen Posted June 23, 2015 Author Posted June 23, 2015 Just wrote the same ISO on the same DVD with the same drive and FreeIsoBurner, so I guess the problem is in Imgburn...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 Then you're lucky. Your drive is reporting a 'write error', there's nothing I can do about that. It's tell the program is can't write to the disc for some reason (optodisc are junk) All recent (last 10 - 15 years) drives follow the same command set (detailed in the MMC specs), so ImgBurn supports all drives that comply with that spec. There are a couple of things you can adjust that might make your drive behave differently, but if your drive/firmware/media combo was working correctly, such changes shouldn't be necessary. Things to change are... 1. Enable the 'Perform OPC before write' option. 2. Write type to 'Incremental'. Obviously you aren't going to read threads on here about successes with a drive, nobody is going to bother posting if they *don't* have a problem.
dbminter Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 Yeah, Optodisc was once a quality brand around 2002 to 2003. Then, they switched to CMC and their OPTODISC media went to crap as well. However, it is interesting that since all drives use the basic command set, as was detailed in the response, that one piece of software should work and not another. Unless that other software is issuing non-standard commands. I'd recommend trying Taiyo Yuden DVD-R while it's still around or "pure" Verbatim, i.e MCC DataLife Plus brand not Life series CMC brand. See if that helps.
