LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 No, it's the bar at the bottom of the main window. It tells you about everything the program is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blutach Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Status: IncompleteDisc ID: 0@P-!-00 Here's your problem. The disc has been tried to be written to before (unsuccessfully), I suspect (it should say "empty" and have a proper disc ID). Pop a new disc in and throw that one out.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 The status bar message 'Disc Not Empty' should have given that away too. ('Disc ID' always shows up like that on -R media, that field is only used on the +R type) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 ('Disc ID' always shows up like that on -R media, that field is only used on the +R type) Maybe we should force it to say "-R" or something? Or surpress it for -R media? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
