Debian Hardware :: Can't Burn A DVD
Jul 16, 2010
I have an internal ATAPI dvd burner/cd burner. It mounts whatever media I drop in just fine (cd or DVD), and will burn to CD media without a hitch. However, it seems to refuse to actually burn DVD's It has worked before when I was running PClinuxOS but started to burn coasters on an intermittant basis. I was having other issues with PC linuxOS so I have tried a few different distos since. All distros will read media and burn to CD, but I still can't burn a DVD. I have tried k3b, Braseo, and xfburn What error messages should I look for?

Debian and debian based distros issue has a issue that has come to make it self aware to me when I was trying to burn a video on my hard drive with braseo and it won't let me burn more than 4.4 gigs to a dvd with 4.7 gigs of free space even a file that is over the 4.4 gig limit by a megabyte with windows i didn't have this problem. One more thing I have 16 gig flash drive and on debian and debian based distros i can only use 13.1 gigs of it but on fedora I can use all 16 gigs.

I have not been able to write to DVDs since the install except for once when luck seemed to play more a part than anything else. Does anyone have a fix for this?Well, after letting it sit and sit and sit, it looks like it does write the data. But, it's writing about 1/2 of a DVD for just 2 500K files.

I installed Squeeze without a DE. Then I installed gdm and rhythmbox, but rhythmbox won't even react to the Create CD button. I have the brasero-cdrkit and cdrdao packages installed for brasero to burn audio CD's which works perfectly. I have the rhythmbox-plugin-cdrecorder package installed too, but no go. The CD spins up, but no dialogs at all from rhythmbox

For many moons I had no problem burning *.iso images on dvds on my Debian Lenny system.
I simply inserted a blank writable DVD disk into the burner followed the directions on the dialog window and it worked. Can't even remember the name of the software.
But, it's now stopped working.
1. I now get a small dialog that says "Blank DVD Inserted ... Make DVD."
2. I click on "Make DVD"
3. I get cd dvd creator. But window is blank; write to disk is grayed out-- as is "files... Browse Folders."
- This is not what I remember... and not all clear what to do next.
4. I tried installing K3B. But, it tells me it can't find a cd/dvd device on my system. But I have two a Sony DRX-830U connected through USB and generic installed on my system.

Looking at the versions of Squeeze available on Live CD's from live.Debian.net I noticed a Rescue CD. I decided to download and burn the 386 version in order to get a look at it. I did so and checked the MD5Sum. It indicated a good download. I then used k3b (which I prefer because it has proven to be somewhat more reliable than Brasero) to burn the iso file. I did it at the lowest speed k3b allows (10X for CDs) and asked for verification of the burn. The disk was verified.I then booted the disk and the disk failed to load citing a read error at block 144640, sector 1157120.
I downloaded another version of the same iso file and again checked the MD5Sum, which was good. I again burned with k3b in the same manner as above and got the exactly the same error.I have had no indication of any problem with my TSST CD/DVD drive and I doubt very much that two consecutive Memorex CDs would be bad. What am I missing here?One other question: Is there a way to check the MD5sum on a disk that has been burned? Should it be the same as the MD5Sum shown for the iso file? I see that I can check the MD5Sum for individual files on the burned CD. Given the very large number of files, which one might it make sense to check?

Do I need to burn all 8 DVDs to install Debian? Is there a simple way that I can just burn a small bootable CD/DVD/USB Flash Drive, and add upon everything else I need afterwards by Internet?

Brasero is broken ([URL] .... - "impossible to link plugin pads") and neither Devede nor CD/DVD Creator offer me the classical Audio CD format.
What is a simple and fast way to get Debian/GNOME to burn an Audio CD. Blimey, that can't be that difficult??

I burn a dvd with k3b or braseo and it says it completed the burn w/o error but when I go to put it back in to read it just keeps the read light on on the drive and wont read. I have tried to read the DVD on windows 7 as well and get the same result. I had this issue with Kubuntu 10.04 as well and wrote it off as a quirk of Kubuntu. Before that I had Gentoo installed for many years w/o issue. So I have a hard time believing that suddenly when I switch from Gentoo that I am having this problem with my drive.
The following is the dmesg |Tail from inserting a dvd burnt w/ k3b:

I'm trying to burn a DVD using k3b, and would like to access files from a shared network drive from a Windows machine. I can see the files in Nautilus from "Network Servers" and drilling down to the right directory, I can open the files no problem, but I can't get k3b to recognise them.
Firstly I can't navigate to the network drive from the file tree on the left in K3b.
If I drag and drop the files from Nautilus into k3b, it says "Problems while adding files to the project: No non-local files supported".
If I use Project -> Add Files I can then get to the network drives, but when I select and add the files it says "Remote files not accepted - You can only select local files".
In the end I had to copy all the files using Nautilus from the network share onto a USB stick, burn the DVD and then delete the files again. (I used the USB stick just to see if that counted as more "local" than a network share). Was there an easier / more efficient way to do this that I missed?

I tried four cdrs and I can't get my dvd rom or dvd-rw to list the contents even though k3b says it was successful. If I open k3b it see the cdr and say sessions 1 appendable yes. I burned the cdr as multisession. I can only view the contents of the cdr by doing a continue multisession while in k3b. I'm using squeeze and kde.

I have a touchscreen panel pc that boots a version of Debian. I have very little experience with Linux in general. I need to quickly get up to speed with this operating system and Debian in general. The panel pc uses an ARM 9 processor, which I need to program to control a lighting system. I have a good back ground in C programming and embedded control. send me a link to an ISO file of Debian that I can burn and load on my main work pc.

Task: burn data CDs, multisession, from the CLI (Lenny). Imagine running a search for the term "burn"! Six zillion responses...burn really should be called something else. Does anybody know of a resource that will help me configure /etc/burn.conf, and get running?

I have never burned a DVD to be used on a Linux box before. If I am burning a CD using a Windows program (not built-in burning), is there anything special I need to be aware of to make sure the DVD will be able to be read on Linux?

I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 onto my Compaq Evo N1020v (quite old laptop) The installation seemed to install without any problems and all updates have been done in update manager. Ubuntu is the only operating system on the laptop. My problem is, neither of the file burning apps Brasero Disk Burner or Send to CD/DVD will detect my blank DVD's. Both apps detect the blank CD's without a problem. File browser is able to read data on this DVD type in fact I installed Ubuntu from a DVD of this type.

I've tried numerous times and different ISO's but I cannot seem to burn ISO's to CD+RW. I'm using Braseo CD Burner. All it does is make the disc have 0 bytes remaining and it acts as if it is a CD-R/CD+R

I have Ubuntu 11.04 with all updates installed.
I can not burn any cd / dvd with Braseo, GnomeBaker, nautilus burner, etc.
The discs are "apparently" normally recorded
But then Ubuntu or DVDPlayer does not recognize the DVD or CD I burned.
Conclusion: Waste DVDs because they are unusable and I can not record.
I have a Gateway nv-53 laptop.
P.D: In older Ubuntu editions, Fedora 15, etc, I can burn disc perfectly.

I have a DVD burner in an external USB enclosure. It works fine for reading CDs and DVDs, and for burning DVD-R and CD-R discs, but I can't get it to write to any CD-RW discs, and rarely DVD-RW. (The DVD-RW has worked maybe 3 or 4 times out of dozens of attempts, and only using K3B) I have also had the same problem burning CD-RWs in a CD burner in a different USB enclosure. Brasero almost always displays 'No disc available' if a rewriteable disc is in the drive - sometimes after a couple of minutes it will display the correct volume label, but if I try to write to it, either blanking it or writing files to it, it goes back to displaying the 'No disc available' again.
K3B finds the disk and displays the volume label without any problem, but when I try to write to it K3B complains that it can't unmount the volume and fails, then ejects the disc. Gnome CD Master can't even find the burner regardless of the disk type! I'm baffled as to why this would be happening like this. All I can think of is that it's either an obscure permissions issue, or a USB issue. I have given myself every remotely relevant permission I can think of, but maybe there's some other security setting I don't know about.
The drive and mounted disc usually show up in file managers, but I have noticed that sometimes the drive will suddenly disappear from the mounted drive list, and become unresponsive. The only thing that gets the drive working again is to reboot the computer - just switching the drive off and back on again doesn't fix it - so I suspect maybe my Mint 9 installation (Gnome with KDE additions, but the problem has existed since I first installed it as pure Gnome) has some issues with the USB connections, but that's just a wild guess, and I've never had a problem using USB flash drives. I have used a variety of disc brands with no difference. Dare I say it, but Windows has no problems with any of this - any of these discs can be read, written, blanked and rewritten effortlessly in Windows. Sigh. At the risk of providing too much information I'm going to follow the advice from the Linux Mint forum, and include outputs for lsusb and lspci.
lsusb output:
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I was attempting to burn an .iso using dd, I had used it before and remembered it being quite simple.
However I tried it today with:
I noticed it finished very quickly and now the cdr1 file inside /dev is six hundred megs or so. I don't think I can get the old file back so am wondering if I will need to reinstall, or if I should delete that file maybe it will rebuild on start up?
Should have I used another terminal command for burning .iso's to disk? What might the correct command be?
