Bought my first 10pk of Verbatim DL's and haven't gotten on successful burn yet. I'm try to burn to a Plextor PX-704A and have tried an different combinations of the following tools:

1)AnyDVD
2)DVD Decryptor
3)ImgBurn
4)CloneDVD2
5)CloneCD
6)PgcEdit
7)Image Tool Classic

I've ruled out the problem being a specific movie (by trying 2-3 different)or firmware on the burner (tired v.1.01 & v.1.02).

At this point I have to believe it has to be the method I'm using as everyone seems to have success with Verbatim's as well as the Plextor 704A.

Any help would be appreciated as I head into burning number 10. Without any success here, I'm going to have to fall back to DVD-5 backups.

Thanks !!

By not getting a successful burn, do you mean the process fails or you are having playback problems. Not all players will play dual layers well. Older ones will sometimes have freezing problems with this media.

This is very true, for I, too, have DL Verbs, and even though they are bookset to -Rom, on some of my family's players won't read them all the way through. Sometimes, it'll freeze or skip to another scene. Luckily for me, however, my personal player is only about two years old, and it has not crossed a DVD format that can't be played.

I can't get a successful backup no matter what I try.

First couple of coaster were made using ISO>Read (in dvd decrypter) and burning with ImgBurm. After the first 2 failures I found a plugin for dvd decryptor to help with Sony ARccOS; ripped and burned again, but failed.

I decieded to try my next movie. Began we an ISO>Read from decrypter and burn with ImgBurn .....another coaster. I begin to doing some research and wonder if the layer break is what's killing me so I download PgcEdit (need some time to learn this tool).

The ONLY way I was able to backup my second movie was with CloneCD. Works on PC, but not in any of the 4 players in my house.

With my third movie, I just installed the latest version on AnyDVD and made the dvd decryptor setting changes that were suggested in the release notes. Again tried an ISO>Read and a burn with ImgBurn ......coaster anyone !!

I'm going to attempt another backup with CloneCD and/or with CloneDVD2 set at DVD-9. It just seems that I'm missing something if I do it this way.
