Hi,
I have just upgraded my CD-RW drive to a DVD+/-RW drive..
Yesterday I tried to write a whole lots of data to a DVD+RW disk using
X-CD-Roast (which I have used for a while and find it easy to use)..
When it cam to write the DVD it gave the following error..
----- Error start -----
Calling: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDRECORDPRODVD dev=
"/dev/cdrom" gracetime=10 fs=4096k -v driveropts=burnfree,noforcespeed
speed=48 -dao -eject -pad -waiti tsize=978759s -
execv error while calling /usr/bin/cdrecord.prodvd (No such file or
directory)
----- Error end -----
X-CD-Roast requires the proprietary "prodvd" version of cdrecord to burn
DVDs. It's also prone to complaining about the need for ide-scsi even on
2.6-kernel based systems that don't need it. I'd switch to using k3b if
I was you (yes, I know it's a KDE app but it's by far the best GUI for
this and it works just fine in gnome).
Paul.
I hadn't looked at k3b because I thought I would then have to run KDE as
well, if it runs in gnome I will definitely give it a try...
Thanks Paul..
