BluRay burning

Sun Apr 28, 2013 3:57 pm
I'm trying to burn a BR disc with K3B and I get a I/O error at 99%, always. Tested with different devices, disks and configuration (growfs, cdrecord, (no)multisesion, UDF, etc...). I also tried brasero (which won't even start burning the BR and throw an unknown error as soon as I hit the "Burn!" button.
Reading debug logs doesn't reveal why it's failing, so asking for logs is pointless.

In an act of desperation I tried to use ImgBurn (which just does circles around K3B and Brasero together) via WINE, but I couldn't get ASPI to recognize my device.

So, my question is: is there a way to make K3B burn, properly and without errors, BR disk?
If the answer is "no", is there ANY linux software (please don't say "Nero4Linux") that will burn BR disks?

Regards

as K3b is just a front end to other command line tools you could try replacing cdrkit with cdrtools, cdrkit is a fork of cdrtools. you will need to look in the community repo for it

from the Arch wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CD_Burning
Note: If you face any issues with cdrkit, it is recommended to install cdrtools from the community repository (cdrkit is a fork of cdrtools).
cdrtools is being actively developed and supports CD, DVD and Blu-ray burning along with complete CDRWIN cue/bin support.
cdrtools does not depend on cdrdao. For more information, see this page from the cdrtools site.
Note: Make sure that you build a package using makepkg and install with pacman. Pacman wrappers may resolve to cdrkit instead.

Yes, thank you for the answer, but as I already said, I tried every single tool that Arch provides. And it doesn't make any difference. Is there any other software for Linux that will *just work (tm)* ?

note: xfburn only uses the libburn4 backend so it might easiest to install it and it's dependencies if available

According to http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/applications/xfburn it won't do anything BR related.

ok, but according to the cdrskin man page it (cdrskin) does bd http://linux.die.net/man/1/cdrskin and according to the Wiki brasseo and fiburn can use it directly and even K3b can use it in place of cdrkit - as I said earlier never used it, but just knew it existed
