I recently bought an LG super multi external burner that is lightscribe enabled. I followed a tutorial found on this page from a long time ago but I get an error at the end saying something like Disc Not Found. Anyone know a remedy?
Here is what Lightscribe.com says may be the problem:
[quote]PROBLEM: Lightscribe discs not detected or recognized by the drive
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Dirt, smudges, or scratches on disc; The center pinwheel feature of the disc contains timing functions as well as identification "bar code" information that the drive must be able to ?read?.
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:
Wipe both the label and data sides of the LightScribe disc with a water-damped soft cloth, especially the pinwheel features at the center of the disc.
Retry using the same disc. Sometimes recognition errors are recoverable with subsequent tries.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Non LightScribe media inserted.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Use only LightScribe media with LightScribe coating on label surface.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Disc not flipped after data burning. The laser that writes and reads data is used for Lightscribe labeling. The disc must be flipped after burning data to burn a LightScribe label.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Make sure the LightScribe disc is data side (shiny) up and label side down before burning a LightScribe label.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Drive not installed properly.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: See LightScribe Drive is not detected by my computer or Labeling Application.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: The LightScribe System Software (LSS) needs to be updated.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Download and install the latest LSS update. This is available from your hardware and software provider. A universal version is also available through this web site.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Your labeling software needs to be updated.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Check with the vendor of your labeling software for updates.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Your drive's firmware needs to be updated.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Check with your drive's manufacturer for possible firmware updates.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Defective Media.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: If several pieces of media from the same package are not recognized, and none of the preceding possible solutions have corrected the problem, this may indicate a quality problem with the media. Please contact the media manufacturer for support or exchange at your local retailer.
