Sheekamoo Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I've had this problem for over a week now so I thought I post here and see if anyone has heard of this happening before. I can use ImgBurn to read a Blu-Ray disk to my hard drive as an ISO format, but at the end of the reading process ImgBurn freezes. I get a notice on my screen telling me the ISO has been created succesfully (or something similar), and once I click OK I can no longer access ImgBurn or my Blu-Ray drive. ImgBurn freezes and it can take a few minutes before windows will terminate the program (using task manager). My Blu-Ray drive (LITEON brand) is not accessable until I re-boot the computer. The disk will not eject and the read lite stays active. I'm running Vista x64 and the OS is freshly installed with minimal other programs installed. Is there a known issue with ImgBurn and the LITEON Blu-Ray drive? I don't have any problems with other reading software (AnyDVD HD and CloneCD both work fine). Thoughts?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 What does ImgBurn say it's doing in the statusbar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheekamoo Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 I'll try ripping it again and I'll pay attention to the status bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheekamoo Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 I just did a rip and notice something. Once the window pops up saying the file has been read successfully, if I open the blu-ray drive BEFORE clicking "OK" I have no problems. If I click "OK" while the blu-ray disk is still in the drive ImgBurn freezes. I'm ripping another copy now and this time I'll click "OK" with the disk still in the drive and report back on what's in the status bar. Also... I never have any issues with DVD's. I've ripped over 100 of my DVD's the last few days using ImgBurn and it didn't matter if my disk was in the drive or not when I clicked "OK." This issue only happens with blu-ray disks.

Sheekamoo Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 Ok... so ImgBurn had "intitializing media" in the task bar after ripping a movie. During that time the activity light on my BD player was active. It stayed this was for a few minutes and never changed. So I clicked the "X" button in windows to close it. Now it says "Terminating Interface Thread..." and nothing else is happening. The log shows the close request was acknowledged and then it says "closing down..." but it's been like this for 10 minutes now and nothing is happening. Time to re-boot my PC.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Looks like the drive has run into problems then, ImgBurn isn't trying to do anything it hasn't already done (or your wouldn't have been able to 'Read' anyway). What you need to do in order to find the exact command the drive is having trouble processing is press the F8 key reading finishes. It'll then capture all the I/O the program does. When you click 'ok' on the box after reading you should get a quick list of I/O commands and the last one in the log window will be the one the drive is having trouble processing. Just copy + paste the last few into another message so we can see what it says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
