Disc says it burned successfully, but when reinserted, it's blank again

For some reason, sometimes whenever I finish a burn, it fake completes, as when I reinserted the exact disc in my Laptop, it shows as blank again. How do I fix this?

And yes, before you ask, it is Dual-Layer media. And it's a DVD+R DL (not RW). I have no idea on how this even is happening

Just to make sure, are you certain you didn't do a Test mode burn?

 

Otherwise, when this happens, check the contents in File Explorer.  If it shows up as blank still, try inserting the disc in a standalone DVD player and make sure it does in fact play.

I actually never had it set to test mode. I'm currently trying another ISO to see if it also has the problem

It still happens, even though I tried different input

As I said, first isolate if anything was actually written to the disc.  Try accessing its contents in File Explorer or playing it in a standalone DVD player.  If File Explorer shows contents and/or a standalone DVD player does play it but ImgBurn says the disc is still empty, you probably need to change your I/O driver in ImgBurn.  First, check to make sure of the first part I mentioned earlier and then we'll proceed from there if ImgBurn is actually writing contents to the discs and just needs an I/O interface change.

I already tested it on my DVD Player. No it does not work. And yay, I already reached the maximum amount of posts I can make today

DVD Video not playing on a DVD player is not necessarily the same as no data being on the disc.  DVD Video not playing on insertion into a standalone DVD player could be other issues.  Also check in File Explorer for any contents that were written to the disc.
