As ImgBurn does what it's supposed to (read the whole disc), the data it reads will of course include the bit stuck on the end too.

As with any I/O stuff, when drives/drivers misbehave, the whole system grinds to a halt. I would guess that your LG just likes the discs you're using better than the LiteOn does, or that the LiteOn has other issues with it's firmware.

I've not noticed any issues with the 18x LiteOn drives.
I'm having problems with this version making coasters on my Pioneer DVR-108 and ANY media. Most often used lately is:

It will burn 3 or 4 discs with no problem then hang about 75%-80% finished. No error code most of the time - it just sits there. Sometimes it does give an error stating something about device error with a long string of numbers xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx etc...

Using NERO or UltraISO I can burn 30 in a row with no coasters ever. With ImgBurn 2.2.0.0 I have to shut down and reboot.

Any ideas?
