Over Powered By Computers Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I followed all the steps given by you to burn .VOB files to DVD... The only problem is the burn button just doesn't highlight and i dont understand why... I have loads of AVI files that i needed to convert to DVD. I used VSO DivxToDVD to convert the files (which happened without any issue) and then used DVD Shrink 3.2 to Author (if that is what it was lol) them. The issue starts when i try to burn the damn thing to a disc. Help... I am not a Computer Geek, so please go easy on the language.. Please help... I really dont want to spend the weekend trying to fix this... Any help would be appreciated. Thank You... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmalves Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 If the Write button isn't clickable then either the drive thinks the inserted disc isn't empty or it simply couldn't initalise/doesn't support that disc. If you switch to Write mode (through the Mode menu), what's shown on the Information pane on the right of ImgBurn's window? If there's no text there, what does ImgBurn say in the status bar (Medium Not Present - some reason)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm... it does say Disc not empty but the disc is new and is empty...**hmph** And when i switch to write mode... it shows the DVD writer, Location and everything else is marked as unknown.... The disc i am using at the moment is a Sony DVD-R (120 min/4.7 GB AccuCore) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, there's a newer firmware (1.02) available for your burner at http://au.lgservice.com/ in Device Driver -> DVD-ROM(Writer) -> page 5. Remove any disc from the burner and close the tray before applying this newer firmware. Reboot the computer after it has finished. In case you're wondering, having the latest firmware ensures best quality burns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
