disc not empty message

[mama_sunshine]

i have downloaded ImgBurn, and when I place a DVD in my burner in an attempt to copy it, I get a message saying "disc not empty". I have tried more than one DVD and get the same message. What do I do?

imgburn is not a ripper, its a burning tool

By the sounds of it, you're also in one of the writing modes rather than the 'Read' mode.

 

Of course if the disc you had in the drive was supposed to be blank and you were in one of the write modes on purpose, it would appear your drive doesn't support the media you're using.
