Disbale auto-finalize

[Burning Apollo]

I find that its not unusual for dvd burning to fail with my computer. But every time the burn fails, but I never get an option asking me if I'd like to finalize the disk or not. Now, I know that if the disk is not finalized, it can be used again for burning and the disk does not become useless. Hell, failure or sucess, even Nero gives you the option to finalize or not if you change your mind.

 

No, I dont plan on buying a new dvd drive, because about 83% of my burns are sucessful. All I'm asking is if I can disable the auto-finalizing "feature" in ImgBurn. This would save me from a lot of useless dvds

Got it! It's under the Write tab in the Settings menu. funny, when i checked if dvd decrypter had this option, nope! imgburn is to go

Care to tell us which option you've unchecked? Have you ever thought about checking for newer firmware for your burner(s), using better quality media or burning at 8x or 12x for best results (depends on the burner)?

lol there is no such option.

Okay, Under the WRITE tab, which is in the SETTINGS menu, there is a checkbox with "Finalize Disc - Autoretry" next to it, but completely paralell to that, there is another checkbox. so, im thinking that "Autoretry" belongs to the checkbox on the right.

 

anyways, I unchecked the "Finalize Disc" option

 

now, I haven't tested this yet, because Im currently out of dvds. but, i will later today.

One is don't auto retry, the other is ignore finalisation errors.

 

You can't tell ImgBurn not to finalise a disc - period.
