Burning Disc stuck at 50%

[padawanduck]

I'm in the middle of burning discs for a season of a tv show and the previous ones have worked out fine but this one has been stuck at 50% for like 2 hours. Any help would be great thanks!

Sounds like your machine / drive got stuck.

 

Kill the power to the machine and try burning it again. (Yes, that disc is a write off)

Ok thanks!

You might also want to try switching the discs you're using.  CMC makes the worst discs out there.  It might be you got lucky in your previous discs had no problems but this one did cause a problem.  That was my experience with CMC.  50% of them worked and 50% of the 200 disc cake stack failed to either burn or verify.

You may also try the latest version of ImgBurn as yours is way too old.

[dbminter]

Oh, wow, I didn't notice that.  2.5.8.0 was released way back in 2013, so your version is about 5 or 6 years old.  Yeah, you'd better update.
