magmadrag Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Well, today I justd installed my new BluRay-Recorder (Pioneer BDR-209EBK) So burning starts and works. As I always choose the option "verify", during the burning process there is reached the point "Cycling Tray before Verify..." and at this point of the process nothing else happens. What means: The drive doesn't open for cycling - at least not during the first five minutes - altough it worked fine before with other drives. What I did so far: uninstalling and new installing of ImgBurn When this happened for the first time, before I un- and reinstalled, I simply killed the program. The only confusing thing then was that altough I killed the program, it's process still was running and I had no access to the drive. So I had to kill the process, too, and the result was a well burnt BluRay. But as I am used to use verify (easier than to check every disc in the BluRay-Player first), I would appreciate support what goes wrong and how I could change this! Thanks in advance!
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Next time you burn, press the F8 key before the point where it cycles the tray. That'll enable I/O debug mode (confirm it via the Log window) and more will be added to the log. Once it's stuck, save the log and upload it here on the forum please.
magmadrag Posted April 5, 2020 Author Posted April 5, 2020 I don't know what changed since yesterday! Can't see any updates or something else, but today it works! I am a little bit confused about that fact but HAPPY :-)
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Maybe you rebooted your machine? There's no reason for it to get stuck where it did.... it would have been due to something outside of ImgBurn, but a bit more info (in the form of a debug enabled log) would have helped me to help you figure out what it might be. Hopefully it stays working ok for you now.
magmadrag Posted April 5, 2020 Author Posted April 5, 2020 I rebooted several times already yesterday but nothing changed. Then I had to as I even couldn't kill the process of ImgBurn... But there might be kind of a windows-reason: Yesteraday I only rebooted, when I was done, I drove down the system. Maybe driving down and reboot causes different actions? WHo knows.. but as long as the problem is solved, I don't care anymore before it happens the next time :-)
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 That would have power cycled the drive I guess - something a restart doesn't do.
dbminter Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Yes, sometimes it's best to power cycle the PC when dealing with optical drive problems. Sometimes cycling the entire PC power clears out the occasional cobweb that causes an issue.
