Ok, I have a dual layered dvd drive dvd+- idk if this has any significance but it says dvd+-RW? I got as far as uploading the file to imgburn and then I put my disc in. And it says medium not found. I'm using sony DVD+R Dl's btw any one know what to do?

Hi and welcome to the forum, mcballa2010!

 

What exact model of burner do you have?

[LOCOENG]

You can go to 'tools'->Drive->Capabilities to see what your drive can do....or post a log.

No, Cynthia meant what model of dvd drive/writer do you have .

 

look back at Locoeng's previous post, that tells you how to find out what model it is

i feel like an idiot but where would i find tools at?

[mmalves]

It's the Tools menu in ImgBurn

ok yeah it says its able to write DVD+R DL's so does that mean that sony DL's I bought are shitty and don't work?

[lfcrule1972]

It sounds like your drive doesn't like them...... Can you open ImgBurn and then pop a disc that will burn in the drive, next can you copy and paste the log from the bottom window of the ImgBurn GUI into your next post here ?

 

This will tell us what drive model you have and also the firmware that it's currently using, it might be that the FW needs updating to burn the discs you have bought.

 

Generally speaking we only recommend the Verbatim DVD+R Dual Layer discs (MKM-001) dye made in Singapore.
