I have been backing up movies for some time now. I have over 300 plus successfull burns using dvdfab, fixvts, dvdshrink, and img burn. However, tonight I ran into a problem. I tried to back up two movies and they seemed to write fine but when it gets to the verify it gives me an error! I have never gotten this before: Here is log file from one of them: ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 - Log ; Wednesday, 17 June 2009, 22:15:13 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 21:52:00 ImgBurn Version 2.4.4.0 started!
