This is because not all burners support scans.

What burner do you have?

LG drives don't support quality scanning...but you can do a transfer rate test etc. on it. Just not the Disc Quality Scan.

No. We all use another drive to do scans of LG burned media.

What is your other drive? Remember: only burners do reliable scans.

maybe also this burner don't support scans.

If you want to do scans you need a liteon, a benq, or a plextor drive. Some pioneer and some nec also do scans, but are less reliable.

Not that I know of.

Geno is right - a LiteOn, BenQ, or Plextor would be your best bet for *good* scanning.

Most of us that like to scan, and own LGs, keep one (or more in some cases) of these scanning drives handy.

No, I have a 4163 and the lastest is A106 but as for the 2166d I really have no idea. Maybe you should post in the firmware forum, somebody there should know.

I read somewhere that the chipsets in LG burners doesn't support scanning, and from what I know about my 4163B, it's error correction is so good, I am not sure I would trust it to report errors. It can make the worst disks look good in a transfer test.

if you want to know the quality score you need to scan it in a benq, plextor, nec, liteon, or pioneer drive that supports scanning.

your drives do not support scanning therefore you can't scan it.

i don't think ther eare NY LG drives that support scanning regardless of firmware...i think the actual chipset doesn't support it, not that a particular firmware version disables it...
