mhaj0865 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 hi everyone. everytime i burn a dvd sl or dl at approximatley 6-8 % being burnt the drive makes a spped change , the time calculated goes out to over an hour then the buffer drops, finnaly on occasions the burn process fails but most of the time it still works. i have 1.5 gig of ram , my HD is new but the old won didnt make a difference. the dvd drive is new pioneer 109.

zacoz Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Could you please post the log from such a burn, as this will help in diagnosing your problem. Logs directory is available from the Help --> ImgBurn Logs menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinningwheel Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hi and welcome to the forum. As zacoz said, please post a logfile from one of the failed or poorly timed burns, we really do get a lot of info off of those. Also, as a first guess, I'd venture to say that your media is bad. We recommend Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim DataLifePlus around here and have found them to be the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontasciime Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 make sure pioneer is master on an 80 wire ide cable and the other end of cable is not connected to the same hard drive the image is on, check your udma settings as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 A picture of the graph data (done via DVDInfoPro and ImgBurn's IBG file) would help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenadjian Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 After looking into my crystal ball, this is what it said. You are using media that has supported speeds above 4X. You have got your burn speed set at MAX. At 6 to 8% of the burn, the drive is trying to kick into high gear (above 4X) At this stage your buffer is emptying due to DMA problems, (Read the FAQ's on how to rectify this) A log will either confirm the above, or, force me to throw my ball in the rubbish.

Movie Junkie Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I know your balls are old ken but surely you would miss them if you tossed them out ? Non use (or misuse) has caused them to turn into crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenadjian Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Trust you LFC to take a subject of the rails. Well, 24 hours and no response, I guess I'll just have to hang on to my ball a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
