Sup guys. I have been trying to test some media a relative bought using dvd identifier. It completes the task without errors, but there is a weird *WARNING* ,all in red, toward the end of the log. I was hoping someone could explaing what this means:
[08:31:07] DVD Identifier V4.3.0

PS I have a dual layer LG burner GSA-4120B with the latest firmware (unless something newer has come out in the last 30days). Thanks.
kk. does anyone know if dvd identifier is really that dependable at detecting supported formats? I went and got a new dl-dvd burner cause my old one didn't support DVD-R DL discs. I bought a lg GSA-H10N which I was lead to believe burned DVD-R DL discs. When I run dvd identifier I get the same error I got with my old burner:
[10:35:42] DVD Identifier V4.3.0

The odd thing is that when I look up my new burner on the net this is what I find:
In addition to the 12x DVD-RAM write speed, this unit features write speeds of 16x for both DVD+R and DVD-R, write speeds of DVD+RW to 8x, DVD-RW to 6x, DVD+R DL at 10x and DVD-R DL at 8x. Any feedback? I was about to contact my local retailer and tear a strip outta them, but I wanted to do some investigating first. thanks.
thanks for the quick responce. I updated the firmware to latest jj11, but still same result. I've phoned my local retailer and they assure me it will burn DVD-R DL, so i guess i'm off to buy a 5 pack this afternoon. I would have thought dvd identifier would have said supports 6x DVD-R DL, and not DVD-R Dual Layer Detection Is Not Supported By This Drive but we'll see. thanks again.
