Samsung CDDVDW SH-S203N SB01 Setting Book

[left.hooked]

I am trying to change the Booktype to match my new DVD DL drive and I get an error: "unknown....unable to query current settings"?

 

 

Any thoughts? Just bought the DVD DL drive today.

That's perfectly normal.

 

Samsung drives cannot be queried to find the current settings.

 

ImgBurn takes care of the booktype stuff automatically on those drives anyway so you don't need to do anything.

OK, good to know. I am in the process of burning a .dvd file with Sinapore Verbatim media @ 2x. I hope it works. As I was using memorex and went thru around 10 trying to get this game (xbox360) burnt.

Hrmmm, just read the tut here on ImgBurn and I was trying to do it via based on the YouTube video. On YouTube it says to open the .dvd, copy the number on line 1 and then delete that entire line, save it. Then add the number into ImgBurn. That is how I have been doing it, but in the tut here, it says not to edit it...?

Do not mess on with ImgBurn settings right click .dvd file and choose burn with ImgBurn

 

Tick box in ImgBurn settings to Auto booktype and tick Calculate Optimal

 

Below is whats in .dvd file do not alter it (your iso name will be different though)

 

LayerBreak=1913760

Trying now with all the filters and suggestions you suggested @ 4x.

 

/me crosses fingers. Switched back to memorex until I know it's working properly then I'll go back to Verbatim (only bought a 5 pack today)

Did you have Verify enabled? Did it pass the Verify stage without errors?

Verify was not enabled. Now it is and I am burning again. 4x for my drive right?

You could've used the Verify mode to verify the burned discs

Doh. @ 26% right now.

Can you post a log of failed burns

 

The memorex ones have a chance of being the reason.

 

If you burn as detailed above with verb @2.4x it should work, you may have to use 4x on that samsung drive but post log so we can see what the drive is doing whilst burning to either media.
