Ant-Man and Avengers Age of Ultron backup issues

[90312]

Glad you're going again! I'll uncross my fingers now

[armitron77]

Fingers crossed!

Happy to report that both backups of ANT-MAN and Avengers: Age of Ultron were successful. They both play perfect with no issues at all. Thanks for all of your help 90312.

It does a little write on a reserved section of the disc and sets the laser power properly for the media. Improves the odds of a good burn.

Good to know that. Thanks 90312 for all of your help. I am downloading the latest version of DVDFab and going to give it another attempt on backing up my original purchased DVD's. I'll let you know the results. Once again. Thanks.

In Tools/Settings and the Write tab, see attached:

The OPC before Write option was un-checked. It's now checked. What does it do anyway?

One of your logs shows a problem communicating with the drive. I would do a clean uninstall and download the new revision and install as administrator and make sure OPC is enabled in ImgBurn. There may be other issues but that's a good place to start.

Ok. Got it. Where exactly may I find the OPC in the ImgBurn program?

I recommend that as well. If it won't play from the HDD, then the burn log is not relevant. Main Movie is a "re-author" mode and has new and much simpler IFO files than Full Disc so tends to have fewer rip and playback issues.

The internal log does not indicate any problems. I have this disc and will try it also when time permits. Does it freeze up when you are trying to burn it or when you try to play it back, this is not clear in your original post and is probably why a burn log was requested.

It freezes up when I play it from the Hard Disc Drive and from the DVD-R (Verbatim) blank discs I am currently using. However, I was unaware at the time of me burning the movie into a blank DVD-R disc that DVDPasskey was enabled. According to some members of this forum, it is recommended that DVDPasskey should be disabled as it could interfere with the copying (backup) and burning processes conducted by the DVDFab and imgburn programs. Therefore, I will try again and post my results. Having said that, I am a little confused about this because when I backed up the movie with the Main Movie option, it works perfectly as compared to when attempting to backup the movie with the Full Disc option. I conducted this while DVDPasskey was still enabled. Any clue as to what happened? Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

As my friend october262 said use quality media and burn slower.


Burn Log
I 01:14:28 Image Single Layer Profile: DVD-R/RW (Media Capacity: 2,297,888)
Average Write Rate: 47,357 KiB/s (35.0x) - Maximum Write Rate: 126,957 KiB/s (93.9x)

What you see in terms of the burn log is when I made a ISO out of the movie that was already in my Hard Disk Drive. Hence the reason why you see the average write rate at 35.0x and so forth. Remember, all of the encryption was already removed. I'm still having issues as what I stated previously. Did you take a log at the internal log? Let me know what you think of the internal log. I noticed you only mentioned the burn log (as through that is going to solve the issue I am currently having) and not the internal log. Please let me know. Thanks.

I am using good quality media such as Verbatim. I'm using the single layer DVD-R 4.7 GB blank discs.
The speed in which I am using to burn the discs are exactly at 8x.

do you have dvdfab passkey ??
if so, make sure that it is completely shut down/disabled
i wouldn't run both dvdfab and dvdfab passkey together
as they could cause problems working together.
from your burn log - W 01:14:26 DVDFab Passkey can interfere with ImgBurn's ability to verify accurately, please ensure it's disabled!
