    No writable media detected

    I'm currently using the latest beta (v7.0.2.5) and when it comes time to insert the blank DVD I put one in and it pops it back out telling me that I still need to insert writable media. What I'm trying to do is use DVD to DVD using DVD9 with Verbatim DVD+R DL discs. After having this problem I tried to use an older version of DVDFab but it's doing the same thing, this only started recently, I've never had this problem before and any help would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks.

    How long have you been using DVDFab for? Also could you read what is listed below and post the info asked in your next post reply

    Help Us Help You


    If you are posting about an operational problem with one of the DVDFab products, you will improve the speed and accuracy of the response by providing some information in the very first post that will probably be needed.

    First, make note of any error codes or messages that appear in popup boxes and put them in your post. Information on error codes that appear in the DVDFab UI are captured in one of the logs we request below.

    DVDFab keeps logs of its activities that supply basic system information and can help pinpoint where and when an error happened and help pinpoint the cause. The default location for these logs on most Windows systems is:

    C:\Documents and Settings\your username\My Documents\DVDFab\Log

    The logs are simple text files that can be opened with Windows Notepad. If the size exceeds the forum’s attachment size limit, you may need to delete older entries or copy and paste the relevant ones into a new file.

    dvdfab_internal.log Attach for all problems. Time stamped, most recent at the bottom. Please edit to include only the most recent or relevant log session.

    dvdfab_burn_vso.log Attach for all problems. The entries are time stamped with the most recent at the top.

    dvdfab_burn_imgburn.log Attach if you have ImgBurn set as the burning engine and the problem concerns disc burning. Time stamped with the most recent at the bottom.

    dvdfab_process.log Attach if DVDFab crashes and the crash report window does not come up or complete correctly or if internal error codes appear in the DVDFab window (“Task Failed…”). Time stamped, most recent at the bottom.

    Other Information:

    Depending on the nature of the problem, it can help to know:
    If this happens with all discs or just one
    Your operating system/CPU/memory configuration
    If you are using external hard drives or optical drives
    If you have made any recent changes to your OS or system hardware
    If you have other DVD or BD software installed, particularly if recently added.

    Posts with all the requested information will be answered first.

      Recent attempts

      I've been using DVDFab for about a year and haven't had any problems until the release of v7. I use Verbatim DVD+R DL 8.5GB discs, I can go through a whole spindle and none will be recognized.

      Here are the logs from my recent attempts.

      It then brings up the window that says:
      "No media detected in drive F: Please insert a compatible media to start the write process." I'll put the disc in but it ejects it and just keeps telling me to insert compatible media.

        I not see anything in the logs that can cause this so if you not already download ImgBurn and try that as the burn engine. It is free to use and most of us here use it as the burn engine. Here is link for where to download and how to set it up to use with DVDFab



        The only difference with ImgBurn is it gives you different places to select the layer break unlike the Built in burn engine that chooses the place to put it which could disrupt the movie playback

          I am using ImgBurn, the problem is that it doesn't go to that process. DVDFab isn't accepting my blank DVDs to start the write process.

            I'm still having problems trying to burn a disc. It just isn't accepting them. I put one in and it pops it back out saying that I still need to insert writable media. I only using Verbatim discs and would appreciate any help that can be provided.
