Jill Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 (edited) ok i'm not all that great at reading logs but at first look you could turn your speed down to 4X and if you have a batch of verbs is it the first time it's happened with this lot or has it happened before ?

Jill Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 (edited) normally when this thing happens you do several things, first is check the brand of discs and turn down the burn speed if it's to high then you can try updating the firmware of your burner also trying a lens clean doesn't hurt, give those things a shot and see what happens Edited February 19, 2008 by Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynthia Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hi and welcome to the forum, aceventura! You have firmware ver TO33 installed and there should be a later version TO35 to install. (Don't have any disc in the burner when you flash it and have the tray closed.) http://www.isd.toshiba.com.au/71/live.dll/...heckDriver=true Edit: Nice to see you here Jill!

aceventura Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 im in australia & VERBATIMS are the better ones we have here available. every forum i visit, they say about TY & Verbs. as i cant get TY here, so why not stay with Verbs???? i have used more than 150 verbs so far with only 3 (including the last one) having a problem 2 of which was the problem with dvdshrink & nero. so im pretty happy with verbs here. about the new IMG, there is an option to select different types of UDF. by default it says 1.02. which one should be used? can nyone pls answer this? thx again to all the wonderful helping people here.

UDF 1.02 is the oldest and compatible with pretty much anything that reads DVDs.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Still only 4x on those 16x discs?! Is that all the drive can handle or what? Maybe you'd be better off with 8x TYG02's instead. Although personally, I'd probably just get an external drive and use that instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although personally, I'd probably just get an external drive and use that instead! i think the drive can handle more. but as per IMGburn, it says the TYG03 can handle 4x. what should i do at this moment cz i just got hands on to TYG discs. i used verbatims before. should i make any different settings? or should i dont have to verify? without verification, will it work?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Verify isn't even starting, the drive won't initialise the disc - full stop! So that means that you won't even be able to see the disc's content via Explorer/My Computer or watch it on a PC based software player. A standalone player might be able to read it but I personally wouldn't settle for that. If at all possible, try and get some 8x Taiyo Yundens DVD-R and try those instead (TYG02 dye) Maybe try some Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD+R or Verbatim 8x +R too. (It doesn't look like you've tried +R's yet?)
