imgburn not remembering booktype.

[discman]

first of all i have just deleted a thread in the imgburn form entitled,,,trouble book typing with imgburn,,,the reason for this is i found out my drive does not support it.ok or so i thought.i was testing some of my old burns in nero cd\dvd speed and guess what they show up as dvd-roms.but i thought my burner didnt support booktyping yet they have been.back when i done these discs i used nero.but when i burn with imgburn they are not booktyped.whats going on????

[nwg]

what drive is it?

Are you using DVD -? It only works with DVD +.

[discman]

yeah i know it only works with dvd+what do you mean what drive?

[Chewy]

imgburn has a tab for samsung drives and nero will bitsett also

one or the other may have told your drive to do it and it's remembering the command, nero tells you as soon as it starts

[nwg]

yeah i know it only works with dvd+what do you mean what drive?

What is the model of your drive?

@nwg its a tsstcorp cd\dvdw ts h552b drive @chewy according to what ive read this burner does not support bit setting.yet when i burned with nero they where booktyped to dvdrom.but when i burn with imgburn they are not yet it is enabled.

stick a blank +R in that samsung drive and fire up ImgBurn V2 and go to the booktype setting and chose samsung and dvd+r, you might have to set it every time with imgburn or at least after reboots

It does bitsetting with DVD+R when having at least TS09 firmware.

You may have to do this each time you reboot. It doesn't stay permanant like my LG. I have to use special software to auto bitset on bootup.

yeah but as far as i know its only a way to kid older players that there playing an original.

Are you reading the second set of information in ImgBurn after burning the DVD? The first one will still show DVD+R, but scroll down and the second one should show DVD-ROM. With my 552 (although yours is a B, and mine is L, difference in computer manufacturers) I have tried the bitsetting in ImgBurn and receive success, but it still also changes the booktype whether or not I use the drive settings option, because I have tried several disc using the option and also not using the option, and either way it changes the booktype.

[discman]

so you have to reset the booktype to dvd-rom every time the pc is rebooted?is there a way for it to remember the setting?.
