Troublea burning .iso files

[pshea]

I'm having trouble burning .iso files useing Imgburn.

 

after I start the burn and the buffering finishes it stops working and I get one of two errors.

 

The first says;

 

-------------------------------------

I/O Error

If I click retry I get the same error over and over. But if I click cancel and then try to burn again I get a different error says;

Again if I click retry I get the same error over and over. But this time when I click cancel another error pops up right away saying

It doesn't matter what speed I try to burn the disc at it never works. I'm using a 16x DVD-R for my attempted burning in my laptop. I've checked to see if I can update my drivers but they are all up to date. Any other recommendation?

Hi and welcome to the forum, pshea!

 

No idea of the quality of those 16x disc and if that is the issue.

 

You could post the burning log from that failed burn, it might give some more clues and info.

 

You'll find it here:

I'm using a 16x DVD-R

I 09:44:38 Destination Media Type: DVD-R (Disc ID: UME02) (Speeds: 2x)

Your writer can only burn them at 2x. Sounds as they are not very well supported by your writer. Try to get another brand.

So even though I'm telling imgburn to burn at 2x because the DVDs are 1-16x compatible it wont work? They need to be 1-2x?

 

I've burned music CD's and DVD's full of pictures and videos before useing 16x discs.

 

Thanks for all your help.

With a decent burner + media you should be able to burn at much higher speeds than 2x.

 

The problem with those discs are that they a probably not supported in the firmware (the instructions for the writer how to write to the discs) and the burner instead uses a generic approach and limiting it to 2x.

 

Reading other posts indicates that your brand of media is not very well supported amongst most burners.
