TURGUT Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 When I try to burn an .img file to DVD+RW with ImgBurn 2.4.0.0 i get error "Optimum Power Calibration Failed, Reason: Write Protected"? Running ImgBurn in Windows XP Professional SP2 using a Plextor PX-708A DVD-Recorder.
Cynthia Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Hi and welcome to the forum, TURGUT! Can you post a log from that burning attempt? Main Menu -> Help -> ImgBurn Logs
TURGUT Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Thanx Cynthia! I would also like to mention I'm running Firmware V1.12 on my Plextor PX-708A DVD-Recorder and the DVD+RW media I'm using is TDK branded 4x DVD+RW [RICOHJPN-W11-01]. Here is two logs with the error: ; //****************************************\\ ; ImgBurn Version 2.4.0.0 - Log ; onsdag, 05 mars 2008, 21:46:01 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 21:37:43 ImgBurn Version 2.4.0.0 started!

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Does it only error out like that on DVD+RW? What about normal DVD-R or DVD+R ? If it happens on all discs, just turn off the 'Send OPC' option in the settings (Write tab).
Cynthia Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Trevligt att se någon från Sverige här! Those RW discs are they old/scrached? I can get that issue sometimes with some of my scratched RWs.
TURGUT Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Does it only error out like that on DVD+RW? What about normal DVD-R or DVD+R ? If it happens on all discs, just turn off the 'Send OPC' option in the settings (Write tab). I haven't tried it with normal DVD-R or DVD+R yet, I will try this asap and get back to you with the result.
TURGUT Posted March 6, 2008 Author Posted March 6, 2008 Trevligt att se någon från Sverige här! Those RW discs are they old/scrached? I can get that issue sometimes with some of my scratched RWs. Jepp, Sverige här! Yes, I would consider those RW discs a bit old/scratched but I managed to burn an .img file with the same disc on my laptop with Vista Business and a MATSHITA UJ-852S DVD-RAM Recorder in ImgBurn v2.4.0.0 without any OPC errors! Any clues?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 It's a drive/firmware/media thing so it's no big surprise that it worked in your laptop. Different drives like different media. Your Plextor is also pretty old now and I'm guessing the Matshita is almost brand new.
vadim Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Does it only error out like that on DVD+RW? What about normal DVD-R or DVD+R ? If it happens on all discs, just turn off the 'Send OPC' option in the settings (Write tab). Version 2.4.0.0. Perform OPS Before Write?
Cynthia Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Hi and welcome to the forum, vadim! Changes in ImgBurn 2.4.0.0 : Added: By default, the program now sends the 'Send OPC Information' command prior to sending any 'Write' commands.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Sorry, yes it's the 'Perform OPC Before Write' one.
TURGUT Posted March 15, 2008 Author Posted March 15, 2008 Does it only error out like that on DVD+RW? What about normal DVD-R or DVD+R ? If it happens on all discs, just turn off the 'Send OPC' option in the settings (Write tab). Today I tried with Verbatim branded Printable 16x DVD-R [MCC 03RG20] and no OPC errors at all!
blutach Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 There's a lesson in that. Kabster! Yoo Hoo! Regards
