DVD Burning Error- Help


doctadas

Recommended Posts

So I've been using ImgBurn for a quite a while and have yet to experience a problem. Recently, however, none of my ISO images will burn to dvd. Everytime I put a blank dvd in (Memorex DVD+R.... I know you guys dont like that, but it hasnt given me any trouble up until now) I get an error message saying:

"Failed To Reserve Track; Reason: Invalid Field in CDB"

 

The log is posted below. I just recently upgraded to the new version of ImgBurn thinking that this would solve it, but it hasnt. I would really appreciate any help in solving this. Thanks alot for any help.

Hi and welcome to the forum, doctadas! :)

 

Is that a burner in a HP computer? If so, there is a later firmware 1.19 do download from the HP site.

 

That you haven't had the problem before could be that the setting 'DVD+R Reserve Track' was disabled as default in versions prior to 2.4.1.0. You could try to disable that setting. You find it in the 'Write' tab in the settings (Main Menu -> Tools -> Settings).

Hi Cynthia and thanks for the warm welcome. Before looking for the firmware update (i do have an HP comupter), I tried undoing the setting for the reserved track. After undoing this, I tried to burn another ISO but ImgBurn will not get past the Writing LeadIn stage. The write rate stays at 0x and does not proceed to the write image stage. An error appears that says:

I/O Error!

SciStatus: 0X02

Interpretation: Check Condition

 

CDB: 2A 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00

I dont really know what this all means. Maybe it will help you understand if its a firmware problem or dvd material problem.

Thanks again for all of your help. I really appreciate it.

So I've updated the firmware to 1.19 and I receive the same message. Is it a dvd problem, or hopefully not, a hardware problem? Does anyone know whats going on because I am thoroughly confused. Thanks again for all of your help.

Either try another brand of media or a new burner that like that brand of media. It's a rather old burner - 4-5 years old?

 

Have you been able to burn that brand before without problems?

Yeah its about 5 years old. If it is the hardware, is there any reason why it would all of a sudden not work? Just asking for some sense of closure. Thanks everyone, for all of your help.

Do go get some Verbatims or Taiyo Yudens.

 

Regards

 

 

Thanks for the advice. Would you suggest one over the other, or do they both perform equally well?

Haven't used TYs yet, although I intend to at some point. All the Verbatims I get from Best Buy seem to be scuffed like all the CDs rubbed together. I've had really good luck with TDK though. So, personally I'd try TY or TDK. TY usually come in a pretty big bulk though, so I'd think they have a chance of rubbing too, although friends that use them say they are packaged really well and don't even turn to allow rubbing.

Yeah, ive never had a problem with the brand i've been using (Memorex). I actually just burned a dvd within the last 24 hours. Its only been the last couple of hours that I havent been able to get past the "Writing Lead-in" stage. Normally ImgBurn fills the buffer, then gives some random writing rate, then settles down to my specified write speed (2.4x). Today, is automatically starts on 0x and never changes.

so after updating the firmware and fiddling around with ImgBurn, I finally got the burn cycle to get past its initial stage (Writing Leadin) which it previously could not get past, and into the actual writing stage. I have encountered another problem however. It only writes for a few seconds at an extremely low rate (0.6x) and then encounters an error: Spindle Servo Failure. It sounds bad. Does this mean it is a hardware problem? Thanks for your help.

Does this mean it is a hardware problem? Also ImgBurn, when it loads now, keeps getting stuck on a process "Getting Disc Control Blocks Information" or something to that effect. Any idea why that may be? The errors keep cycling back and forth between Failed to Reserve Track/Invalid Field in CDB and the one previously stated (the write rate varies from a low 0.6x to the specified 2.4x). Also, I'm still able to burn CD's so is it necessarily the hardware thats the problem? Thanks for your help.

from your log file.

the discs your using use the CMC MAG ink/dye. This is known to be the most unreliable ink/dye thats on the market , very hit and miss.

 

its NOT a hardware problem , do as advised above and get some decent blank media and try again

thanks for your help. i'll definitely get some TY's or verbatims. It just seems so weird to me that I've never had a problem with this media before and all of sudden none of these particular dvd's will work. Anyways, thanks again.
