I have read most of the threads on this issue to no avail.
I have an HP DVD Writer 630c. Until recently, this drive has been burning CD R/RW and DVD +- R/RW perfectly. Recently I have been trying to burn an iso to a DVD + R DL with imgburn and clonecd.
I have been getting a Power Calibration Area is Full error. I have updated my firmware to the latest version (CH16). Also, when the DVD burner is idle, it is recognized by Windows Explorer as DVD -RW drive. However, when insert a blank DVD -R or a blank DVD +R DL, it is recognized as a CD drive.
Here is the log from imgburn as well as the right hand column from imgburn
