Hallo,

I just started to burn to a new rewritable DVD and got the message:

"Failed: Unformatted or Blanc Media"

Why does UltraISO not format the disk without any message like other burning tools do?



Because I didn’t find any option to format the disk I tried "erase". This worked.

Then I again started to burn and got the message:

"This rewritable disc you inserted is not empty.
Do you want to erase it?"

I thought UltraISO did already erase the disk...



(Ulta ISO  8.5.1.1860)

Thanks User 69 for the bug report.

BTW, are you using DVD+RW , -RW or -RAM disc?

I used Octron DVD+RW bought at Lidl in Germany.


To prevent misunderstanding:

After I got the message "This rewritable disc you inserted is not empty. Do you want to erase it?" I clicked "yes" and UltraISO burned the DVD. But I think this message should not appear.

Just checked the case, most DVD recorders do report NOT EMPTY STATUS for empty DVD+RW discs.

I just tested again:

I don’t know why, but Ultra ISO used NeroAPI Version 7.5.1.1 although I didn’t chose any burning tool and thought, Ultra ISO would use its own one.

I imported "UltraBurn"="1" to the registry of Ultra ISO to force using the build in burning tool. But the message appears also then.

If it would be a report from the recorder, Nero should show the message too. But Nero Burning ROM 7.5.1.1 doesn’t!


Recorder: LG  "HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4167B"
