thanks troy512, your post are very informative as usual very good reference. wish I had that a while back.rip

Troy512 Can I write to a hard drive ? Can I set Imgburn to do that with the proper write speed ?

ImgBurn is a disc burning application.

Excellent post Troy512!. Btw, can you post any modifications (as needed) for anyone choosing to burn to a DVD DL? I posted this question this evening in my own thread. However, it might be useful to have in your sticky.

Thanks a bunch. You've been most helpful.

Please help me understand why some many on this forum are interested with "IMGBurn"? Please help people like myself understand the difference. Thanks for you helping get some of us educated. Much appreciated.

troy512Thanks for the tutorial.;)What would be the setting adjustment if I just wanted to rip only, and then burn at a later date (using DVDFab & ImgBurn)?

Burn the disk to an ISO (Disk Icon on the target line) file for later burning with Img.

Setting Up ImgBurn and DVDFab to Work Together

Why Imgburn?

I couldn't see an answer to this question, which I'd like to know the answer to: Is there something special about using "IMGBurn"? Is not the burner with DVDFAB good enough?
Is this a quality or speed issue?
I believe Imgburn can also rip, but not to BluRay. If you set DVDFab to use Imgburn, what happens if you select to burn to BluRay, does it default back to the DVDFab engine?

GregiBoy

All old hands here regard ImgBurn as a FAR better burning engine than VSO which comes with Fab. More reliable, better configuration, media recognition, etc.

It will also burn BR and if you follow the instructions in Troy's video, it becomes seamless.

Hey there,

When using Imgburn with DVDFab, is there any way to prevent imgburn from presenting the layer break screen when creating an ISO from DVD9 sources? I'd like it to be hands off, just automatically ignore layer break (I don't use DL media) or to at least auto select the best choice.

Any ideas?

Thanks, and thanks to the authors for a great tool!

Hey everybody, I hope I'm in the right thread for this question. This is my first post in this forum. I'm new to the DVD Fab software but I love it so far. I havn't had any problems. I kinda feel like a caveman learning how to scribble and communicate with all of you super bright tech wiz's though. You guys and girls are amazing. Mainman, troy512 and Gregiboy I wish I had 1/4 of the computer savy you all have. I want to download imgburn and I followed the link troy512 posted here http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download. I can't figure out which one to download though. None of the downloads are titled imgburn. Which software do I download? I'm not having any problems backing any disk up and everything I put through fab burns but I want to see how imgburn compliments fab.

Mirror 8 should work for you

Ripskweak

Damn it! I downloaded mirror 1, I hope I don't get any bugs from it. I got impatient and didn't look far enough down the list, imgburn is hosted by imgburn as mirror 8. Sorry for bothering you all with such a silly question. I'm just getting into this stuff. Thanks for the reply CBR929.

CBR929

Your welcome, but you should still be ok with mirror 1 as it is the same version.

Ripskweak

You're right CBR929, the imgburn that I downloaded is working sweet! I was more worried about something malicious being attached to the software. So far so good though. Is it my imagination or does imgburn help complete the process faster. It seems to me that I'm able to burn my disk faster than before. Thanks for any replies

CBR929

Ripskweak, remember always burn at 1/2 your disc speed and you should be alright.

Chipkiii

I've been using ImgBurn with DVDFab for several months with great results with only one slightly irritating issue. I use two DVD drives to read and write without having to change disc. However, when DVDFab finishes the copy process and ImgBurn starts, an ImgBurn window pops up listing Files, Content Type, Data Type, etc. which must be acknowledged before the burn process begins.

Is there a way to make ImgBurn automatically begin writing to disc?

Thank You

i'm new to the forum. I wandered in here trying to find a solution to my problem and this post by Troy512 seems to have done the trick.
My issue was that my tv DVD player was the only device that was able to read the disks created with DVDFab. None of my computer DVD readers could see the disks.
After hooking up Imgburn as described by troy everything seems to be working great.
A hearty thank you to Troy512.

[QUOTE=troy512;2123]i have reviewed and replied to your thread. i will also consider adding information about layer break.[/QUOTE]

Have given any more thought to Layer Break? If it is as good your ImgBurn, that would be great. :)

nsomniak6

I just want to clarify these instructions. Do I insert a blank DVD in before I actually put the original movie in to burn?
After I make the changes in DVDFab, I then open the IMGburn and make the changes and THEN put the original movie in to burn it in DVDFab?

Forgive my ignorance but I have been a happy XXX, XXX, XXX user for years and all of the sudden I XXX started having all of these errors. Now I am trying to figure the DVDFab and Imgburn combo out and I am not comprehending it completely.

Thanks for any help.

I was following your guild to use Imgburn however when I went to burn the Cotton Club to disc, it asked for a dual layer, how do I change the settings to accept a single layer disc?
Thanks

Imgburn does not compress.
If your file size is more than 4.3 or so GB you need to check your setting in FAB .
The setting has to be DVD5.

If you are using the free version of Fab DVD5 can not be used as the free Version of Fab does not compress either.
