LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Was there nothing after that? Oh and 4 minutes isn't long enough to format a disc. Give it longer. It'll take at least as long as it would take to burn the full disc at the max speed your drive supports it at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Do you have anything else other than a Sony made DVD+RW to test with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Oh, yeah, should have checked the times in the log. If you've not tried giving it like 15 minutes for 4x, you should. I know 8x DVD+RW takes 9 to 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway before I created this thread I already waited for more than 30 mins. The thing is, the erase proceeded ok, showing the increasing percentages progressively within 5 minutes, then stuck at 99% for a long time.

Kiwi8 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Do you have anything else other than a Sony made DVD+RW to test with? Yes, I also tried Verbatim DVD+RW, seems ok. Perhaps this is an issue with the disc compatibility with my drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I was trying to see if the issue may be the Sony disc. I don't know if it's a compatibility issue with the drive; I was just isolating if Sony was the problem as Sony has made 95% junk since 2002. The BD-RE I had with Sony's name on it died before its 5th rewrite. I tried a Sony BD-R but it even failed to finish burning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi8 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Anyway tell u what I did after my previous post. I used the default Windows 10's built-in erasing to erase the disc. After that ImgBurn seems to treat the disc well and proceeded to burn my ISO image onto the disc. So consider the problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 The % complete comes from the drive itself and aren't always accurate. Something in the log just doesn't add up, hence why I asked if there was more. It's highly unlikely you enabled I/o debug mode at the exact second the drive stops processing more i/o commands. (At 21:28:48) Anyway, I'm glad it's working for you one way or another now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, seems that the problem is isolated to this set of Sony discs, and doesn't seem to exist in the other Verbatim discs that I used. Thus yeah, thanks to u and the others for chipping in with your opinions and they are greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
