Thomas Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Hello everyone, I've been using Decrypter and Imgburn for quite awhile now and have never come across this error until recently. Even after selecting 'Retry' and it states that 'Operation Successfully Completed!', it would not play on my dvd player. I would like to make it clear that this LiteOn LH-20A1H dvd burner, as well as my whole PC, is a brand new setup. Is it a hardware issue? something on my end? or something I can do to resolve this in imgburn? Please advise. Thanks for all the help in advance. I 17:29:43 ImgBurn Version 2.3.2.0 started! I 17:29:43 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 2) I 17:29:43 Total Physical Memory: 2,095,532 KB - Available: 1,494,188 KB I 17:29:43 Initialising SPTI... I 17:29:43 Searching for SCSI / ATAPI devices... I 17:29:44 Found 1 DVD-ROM and 2 DVD
cornholio7 Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 is the burner attatched to a pci card or the motherboard? if the mb then check your ide drivers
Thomas Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks cornholio7, for your swift reply. My drivers are all up-to-date direct from the manufacture after I got my system going. But thanks to you for mentioning the motherboard, I went and opened up the case and switched my 2 dvd burners (connected on the same IDE cable because my board only supports 1 IDE controller) around to 'Cable Select'. The previous was set with my samsung burner as master and this Lite-On as slave. Tested 2 different burns and it worked flawless as expected =). Thanks again for the help and reply.
cornholio7 Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 glad to hear its working for you, just out of interest, what is imgburn reporting on the successful burns, still scsi or ata? is this a dell pc?
Thomas Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 It's a custom built rig on a Gigabyte board. And it still indicates scsi. Just thought of something, is it possible that there are 2 burners connected on the same IDE cable, that limits or restricts it somehow? Or perhaps it's something I can change within the bios so that it's indicating ata instead of scsi? P.S... it's a false excitement. I burnt a fourth dvd and the message came back . Problem unresolved.... any help is greatly appreciated once again.
cornholio7 Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 if it is connected to the mb it should be reporting ata so i would say its a bios setting (raid confusion maybe) or drivers edit: is the ide port intel or jmicron?
Thomas Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 Specifically my board is the GA-965P-S3, and I can't be too certain what it is.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 This just looks like a drive / media compatibility issue to me. Try some DVD+R Verbatims instead of the -R ones.
Thomas Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 I suppose I'll grab some Verbatims +R this weekend and test. Will update once I do some test burns...
Thomas Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 I haven't had the chance to buy verbatims yet, but what I've noticed is that the burning will work fine as long as I don't try to burn more than 2 consecutively. Once I try to burn a 3rd, that message pops up. If it was entirely a media issue, shouldn't it not burn at all? I've tested this 3 times so far with similar results. Also note, all these burns have been from within the same PC uptime. So basically, I burned 2 successfully, waited the next day (with PC still on overnight, cause I rarely turn off my PC at all), and burned again successfully. I'll still try to get my hands on some verbatims when I get a chance, but DVDs aren't exactly cheap now-a-days where I would want to spend unnecessarily. Once I get them, I will update once more. Thanks for advices so far and in the near future.
