Every time I create an ISO with easyboot and then try to burn a DvD it says this compilation was not made to go onto this media. I can burn dvds just fine with nero on the EXACT same media. 
Whats up with this?? anyone? I've got 2 different DvD burners in 2 different systems, exact same issue.
Yes, I check the DVD box.
One DvD is a Memorex the other a new Sony DL Burner that supports the new Duel Layer formats. same error.
Please o' please help.
Thanks

This is a bug of NeroAPI. When the size of your ISO image is less than 1GB large, it will force to use a CD-R/RW media.

The exact error is:Sorry, your compilation cannot be written on this kind of disc. Please insert a disc of the correct type or modify the settings of your compilation to make them compatible with the current disc.

I get this twice and then it ejects the dvd.

Please check it this way:1) Start Nero
2) Choose 'Recorder'->'Burn Image'
3) Switch to 'Info' page and see if right information is there
PS: Sometimes Nero reports the wrong information

Sorry, the size of an ISO image is not a real problem. NeroBurn can record a 51MB ISO to DVD properly. We need to do more testing...

I was able to get it to work by just converting the file into the nero image format nri. Easyboot took the new image just fine. I have no idea why, it's still an ISO type format. guess the .iso format is buggy.
