When I try to write (backing up movies and data) I get the following message: "Disc Not Empty". This has occured with Sony, Phillips, Verbatim (sometimes) & Memorex (first time, new spindle) DVDs. It has not occured with NexxTech or Office Depot branded discs. Any ideas or is this something done by the disc manufacturers.

With ImgBurn in Write mode, could you copy and paste here all the text that's shown on the right of ImgBurn?

I can't cut or past, but the info in the right widow is:

Are these discs imcompatable with ImgBurn for some reason? I'm at a loss because some discs work and others dont't when they have the same specifications. Also, most of the info above doesn't mean much to me. Anyway, I would welcome any comments, ideas, or referals.

copy and paste ,find the info you want to copy,hold the left mouse button down and run the mouse over all the text you want to copy untill it becomes highlighted when it is right click the mouse and choose copy ,hit add reply in this forum and when the cursor is blinking right click the mouse and click paste done

 

the discs have nothing to do with IMGburn compatibility wise its your drive that will have issues with the media

 

the firmware (instructions for the drive ) you're running is the one it was sold with and its quite a few versions behind and needs updating, to do this open IB and in the destination box right click on your SONY 710 a menu will open and the last line is firmware update click on it ,it will show your firmware version and then go through the steps and you will download the newest firmware open the file and with the falsher utility load the newest instructions for your drive

 

the info in the IB window should look like this

To mmalves, polopony and LIGHTNING UK;

 

Thanks for the help. Did like all of you suggested and ImgBurn works like a champ now.

My system (Sony) is supposed to have auto-updates like Windows but apparently it is

not working/available.
