Try this, create a .BAT file with this information.

Be sure to change your source/destination paths to where you want your media to be/go. Also make sure the path to IMGburn is correct


@echo off
set SRC=C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\movie
set DEST=d:\movie
set PathToImgBurn=C:\Program Files\ImgBurn

start /d"%PathToImgBurn%\" ImgBurn.exe /MODE BUILD /BUILDMODE IMAGEFILE /SRC "%SRC%\%1" /DEST "%DEST%\%1.ISO" /FILESYSTEM "UDF" /UDFREVISION "2.50" /VOLUMELABEL "%1" /CLOSE /NOIMAGEDETAILS /ROOTFOLDER "YES" /START

Reason: The request could not be peerformed becasue of an I/O device error

eSATA

I am re-ripping to one of the internal drives to re try with one of them

2 Questions (both possibly asked and answered already):

1) I have been using PowerDVD 8 Build 2217 without any real problems. The problems happened when I upgraded to either of the patches beyond that build. I can solve the problems by uninstalling and then reinstalling build 17. For me it is sort of a challenge to be able to "fix" the ability to use the latest and greatest Build to work. Do others have any specific reasons for needing to use the later patches? In others words have you noticed much other advantage?

2) With space issues do any of you not use external drives to do things the way this "Guide" is written? I am re-trying my IMGBurn as I write using the internal drives to see if it will work for me -- that said it sure was a lot simpler to just be able to use CloneCD alone!

Thanks all!

Well it appears that my burn went just fine when doing it form a rip to my internal SATA D drive - it's almost done! Any suggestions for me since my internals are full?
You help is really appreciated!
