Twisterking Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Hi @ all! Got my new LG GH22LS30 writer today! NOw I wanted to brun some of my xbox 360 gamaes ... Also bought some Verbatim MKM-003-00 mso everything fine so far! Problem is now .. some of my friends also have exactly those discs (MKM-003), but a different writer (no idea which one exactly) ... it's no problem for them to brun their xbox games with 2,4x speed! Now I wanted to do the same thing with my new LG burner ... problem is now that ImgBurn simply ignores my selected write speed (2.4x) ... it burns with 4x! That's a big problem because the Xbox360 drive is simply sh*t and won't read it! Any suggestions how to write with 2.4x? Please help! best regards Twist
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Buy the MKM-001-00 ones, your drive might offer 2.4x on those.
haywoodgablome Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 I seem to be having the same issues here.... i am trying to burn a DL game here. and i am getting an error... i don't think it is the burner as i just bought the computer about 3 months ago..... could someone please help me... i did also switch the layer break as it states you are suppose to.... can someone please help me... here is a copy of the log... please help.... also tried burning at 2.4x.... I 20:03:40 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started! I 20:03:40 Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium x64 Edition (6.0, Build 6001 : Service Pack 1) I 20:03:40 Total Physical Memory: 4,191,740 KB - Available: 1,956,904 KB I 20:03:40 Initialising SPTI...

Cynthia Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Hi and welcome to the forum, haywoodgablome! Even if the burner is new, some burners have problems with that media. You get the same issue if you burn at 4x?
haywoodgablome Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 i will try right now to burn at 4x .... give me a couple mins..
haywoodgablome Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 hey guys... thanks for the help... well it sorta worked... i burnt the file successfully.... and when i tried to play the disc... it doesn't work.... any ideas??? possible the disc type i used??? could someone help???
spinningwheel Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 possible the disc type i used Most probable...but it's pretty damned near impossible to tell without you helping a bit and posting the log...
dDoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Alright, i just let one dude flash my Box, flash works. So i wanted to play a game too and ofc started to burn a game and there it all went down. Here's my log. The error was typical I/O error. I 18:56:20 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!I 18:56:20 Microsoft Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600 : Service Pack 3)I 18:56:20 Total Physical Memory: 2
spinningwheel Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I 19:05:34 Destination Media Type: DVD+R DL (Disc ID: MKM-003-00) (Speeds: 2,4x) dDoc; They are 8x discs and your drive doesn't recognize them as that... Your drive is a couple years old now and so you either need to get some slower burning discs, if you can find them or you need to replace the drive with a new one; the costs of drives is extremely reasonable now.
dDoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Alright. So i guess i'll buy a new burner then, because i've like 5 more 8x Vebratim DL disks what're printable. I'm planning to buy this Samsung burner. I've read some reviews of it and they're positive. The drive is: Samsung SE-S184M
Cynthia Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Can't say I'm a big fan of Samsung's after the SH-S223F they released not long ago.
dDoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Well. I need USB DVD burner. Because my motherboard supports ATA not SATA. So, i go with USB one.
mmalves Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I 19:05:34 Destination Device: [0:0:0] TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552U US06 (D:) (ATA) There's firmware US09 available for your burner. Remove any and close the tray before updating. Reboot after it has finished. Not sure if it adds better support for MKM-003-00 blanks though
cornholio7 Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Well. I need USB DVD burner. Because my motherboard supports ATA not SATA. So, i go with USB one. or buy an ide internal
dDoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 (edited) Well. I need USB DVD burner. Because my motherboard supports ATA not SATA. So, i go with USB one. or buy an ide internal Que? What do you mean with that? What's ide iternal? EDIT: btw, what do you think about LG E20N drive? Edited March 7, 2009 by dDoc
Cynthia Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Never had a LG writer as they are not be found in my small town. You should be able to find reviews of that writer in this forum. http://club.cdfreaks.com/f91/

Cynthia Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 For this disc ID: MKM-003-00 - I would go for a Pioneer 115/215 or 116/216 or an Optiarc 720x. Those work very nice with that disc id.
dDoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 But as i searched them i read that they're for SATA. What about Lite-On external drive(s)?
Cynthia Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Pioneer 115 and 116 and Optiarc AD-7200A are for sure PATA burners.
