I have been backing up my movies with ImgBurn for about a year or more but lately after the burn when tray recycles I get an error message during verifying. After I close ImgBurn and try to play movie on PC it won't play most of the time but will play on stand alone just fine. I have been having this issue quite a bit lately. Other movies I backed up with imageburn before this problem arose play just fine. I have even reinstalled DVDFAB, Shrink, and ImgBurn. I 19:30:58 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started!

Two suggestions for you: Write Speed: MAX Slow the burn speed down to 8x. Media Type: DVD+R (Disc ID: CMC MAG-M01-00) Switch the media - the ones you are using now are made by CMC - not always the best. Try Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim or even Sony.
