brainiac Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Hi all. I recently used ImgBurn with my Lite-On DVD+RW to backup a DVD to a DVD+R. I changed the booktype to "DVD-ROM" before burning. After the burn process, I used both AnyDVD and Nero InfoTool to check the DVD+R. In AnyDVD, it shows the ff: Media is a DVD. Booktype: dvd-rom (version 1), Layers: 1 But in Nero InfoTool, it shows the ff: Type: DVD Video (DVD+R) The backup DVD+R can properly play in my DVD player. But why does Nero InfoTool still show "(DVD+R)"? With the original DVD, Nero InfoTool only shows "Type: DVD Video". Another question, will the DVD+R not play if I use a different DVD player? Thanks.
blutach Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 To see if it really is booktyped properly, insert the DVD and bring up ImgBurn and look in the right panel (Read mode). Regards

Regards Thanks for reply. In the right panel, the DVD+R shows as: ATAPI iHAS120 6 7L0E (ATA) Current Profile: DVD+R ... Physical Format Information (ADIP): Disc ID: CMC MAG-M01-00 Book Type: DVD-ROM With the original DVD, it shows as: ATAPI iHAS120 6 7L0E (ATA) Current Profile: DVD-ROM ... Physical Format Information (Last Recorded): Book Type: DVD-ROM Both booktype shows "DVD-ROM". Only the "Current Profile" info is different. Do I need to change this "Current Profile" to "DVD-ROM" as well?
