View 8 RepliesI have tried brasero, nero-linux and k3b to burn (and encode) mp3 files onto a cdrom. Every program burns the cd, but the files are converted to wav format instead of cda. I can only assume that I am missing a lib file or some codec. I am using ubuntu 10.10 and I have enabled everything I can think of, including adding the repositories for "super-os" and every restricted extra I can come up with. I can play cd's, dvd's etc. I can burn dvd's, but audio cd's are a no-go.

View 3 Replies View RelatedM$ 7 on my new laptop (one month out of warranty)has died. I have several iso files and several downloaded programs that I wish to put on DVDs before I do a restore. I have tried Slax, Kubuntu, and Mint from USB live boot. None of them will let me burn the files to DVDs. My largest USB stick is 4gig. K3b in Slax shows that I don't have enough temp file space, but will not let me use the hard drive for temp.
Options I am considering:
Getting a larger USB stick. Booting from CD and copying up to 4gigs at a time and moving it to my desk top. Resizing the ntfs partition to give me about 20-30gigs for installing Slackware. Buying an external hard drive and copy them to it. (starting to really like this one) Forgetting it and restore and spend many hours downloading them again. (Really would rather not) I can do any of these options, but want to see if there is an option I haven't considered.
I need to know where to look in Ubuntu to find the iso burning program. I normaly run slack and am not familiar with debian based systems, I have limited internet time

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to learn a few things about CentOS so I decided to install it on my laptop, Windows 7 is already installed on it and there is no CD/DVD drive so I though that I could just create a new partition and mount the CentOS image and install it ... but I don't even see an .exe file so I guess this is not the right way to do it
(Yeah I'm a complete Linux noob, I know that CentOS is not the most user friendly OS but it's really the one I need to learn)
So what you should I do to install it this way ? (if it is really possible)
I am running Ubuntu 8.04 (installed by CD) and an .iso file for Ubuntu 10.04. Normally, we can upgrade system via internet. But it always takes much time to get it, with me it's around 2 hours @_@. What I need is saving time by upgrade the system from what I have (iso file), not via internet.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm sick of screwing around trying to script a clean solution to burn multiple files and folders to CDs and DVDs with wodim, growisofs and genisoimage.I'm looking for a high level command line program that uses sensible defaults and takes arguments something like this:[program-name] [cd|dvd] /path/to/dir1/ /path/to/dir2/ /path/to/file ...It should then do all the low level copying and ISO generation transparently and just burn the damn disk!Does anyone have any suggestions? I've looked at several programs but it seems there are too many choices to trawl through and not enough information about them online.

I thought Linux couldn't do anything with Windows Media Audio files because the format is proprietary. So when a friend sent me a WMA file, I was surprised to find I could listen to it without needing to borrow a Windows-using computer. Is it only recording and saving in WMA format that we can't do? (And is it the same with the Windows movie format (.WMV)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedOpensuse 11.4 seems to be creating problems with booting from USB devices. (I have read in a couple places that people are having similar problems.)
Every time I try to boot from a different live USB image, I see a GRUB screen flash and the hard disk starts to boot up. The only live image I have had success with booting was another OpenSuse 11.4, then I got the options to install or run live. I was thinking of just wiping the hard disk and seeing if that made a difference. Can I get into the grub limited command line, can i format from here? Is some other way of installing over the WAN from inside the Suse OS?
