Please help me....yesterday i burned two dual disks with imgburn succesfully...the games that i wrote, work correctly!!

Today i tried to burn two another games in dual disks with imgburn....but i can't!!I tried to burn the same images like yesterday, but i couldn't!Always it shows me a message "I/O Error". My DVDROM is LG GSA - 4163B...I updated the firmware but nothing happens...Also i can write dvd and cd with imgburn, nero, decrypt, etc, except dual disks....What could happen??

Can anyone help me??

Welcome to Doom9.

What media are you using? Verbatim is the only reasonable DL media - the rest are hit and miss.

Make sure your firmware is up to date A106 is the latest for that burner.

As I said before, use Verbatims, or you will be coming back time after time asking "Why didn't my burn work? It used to work. I have had success in the past. It should work now." etc etc.

If you want consistent DL burns, use Verbatim - the 2.4x (MKM-001) seem to be the best.

Actually, I'd suggest that the only DL burnable media you should use is Verbatim D/L DVD+R (Not DVD-R)

Exactly the information I was looking for thanks :) ! I have around 120GB of photos and high definition video from a recent trip to backup, and need a decent DVD DL solution. I tried a bunch of Datawrite discs which apparently are just rebranded RiTek, and I used to have a lot of success with the RiTek DVD-R's. From here on in though, it is Verbatims. Don't suppose anyone knows a cheap place to get them in the UK?

for data backup I would rely on these, especially if it was my only copy

the number 1 reliable/affordable media

too expensive for bulk use

Feels like four parts play in to this problem.
* DVD-quality
* DVD-burner
* Burner hardware
* Burning application
That is a lot of different crap to troubleshoot and sort out.
