What is wrong with Imgburn?
Your log says that it burned but failed to verify. Try the disc. Update your firmware: http://www.firmwarehq.com/Sony/DRU-540A/files.html Also keep in mind that your burner is old.
Yes, it is old. I have burned so many DVD's with this burner, It sure has been a good one. Thanks, I'll try the firmware update.
