HEY THANKS FOR THE TIPS ON THE LAST THREAD,BUT AM STILL HAVING A PROBLEM HOW CAN I TELL IF MY DVD BURNER CAN DO BOOKTYPING.
Google the brand and model of your burner. Find a tech review article. They will generally say what the burner is capable of booktyping. Or post your brand and model number and people here will help you check it out. The manufacturing specs/users manual will probably also indicate what booktyping is permitted. Most burners will autobooktype +R DL media to DVD-ROM. Some will booktype all +R media to DVD-ROM. Some have the capability of doing so in the firmware, but the option needs to be enabled. Some do not have the capability in the firmware but the firmware has been modified by someone to allow doing so and you have to flash the modified firmware to your burner. Other burners have firmware that does not allow for booktyping. It just depends.

If it was an I/O Magic box you may have a Benq 1670 same as the Sony DRU 820a. I think the latest firmware is 1.03 here: ftp://ftp.benq-eu.com/dvd-rw/firmware/dw1670/dw1670_103.zip If it is the 1670, it does support +R and +R DL booktyping according to CD Freaks review: http://www.cdfreaks.com/reviews/BenQ-DW1670-DVD-Burner-Preview/Final-Thoughts.html Did QSuite software come bundled with your burner? If not I think you can DL it here: http://support.benq.com/files/Storage/Software/QSuite/QSuite v2.1 Setup.zip That should allow for examing and setting up the booktyping. You may also be able to use DVD Decrypter to view the current settings and make changes permanent. Tools -> Drive... -> Change Book Type
