get device not ready, media not present

[ph3iron]

I thought I was ok. Selected hard drive video files , hit "image file to disc"

Get "device not ready, media not present"

Help !!!

Ive tried "write files/folder to disc"

write image file to disc"

If you have a file (plays fine on computer) on your hard drive which one do you use?

Thanks - p

Did you actually Build the image first?  Write image file to disc requires the image file be built first by Build or an existing image file from a Read.

 

 

If you did Build the image files and tried to Write that image and still get device not ready, well, make sure you have a disc inserted in your burner first.    If you still get a device not ready/media not present message, try shutting down Windows, powering off your computer, leave it powered off for say a minute (If your burner is an external one, shut off its power for a minute and power it back on.)  Restart Windows and try again.

A firmware update for the drive may fix that... can you post a log so we can see which model you've got?

Thanks for your patience. Here's today's experience.

I select "create image file /build", assume this is ok

not "write r and f to disc"

I choose 5 files, accept imgburn title

Get "operation successful' choose file

 

Switch to write mode,

Choose file

5 files

burn. fine

5 files on disc, play fine from my tv

Put disc in player - 3 files

AFG ok

MP4 NG?

 

What does that mean folks?

Thanks again. I haven't mentioned Sony + are ok _ not

Is some files aren't visible, your player is probably filtering them out because it doesn't support them.

Problem came back . I build, choose write.

Get device not ready, media not present, tray closed. 

I rebooted, reinstalled imgburn.

Same result

Your drive is reporting that status, so it doesn't think there's a disc in it.

 

If it can't see discs, try cleaning it with a cleaning disc.
