Finally got around to buying a DVD player so i put 3 old Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns on one dvd and it plays fine on the computer. However , when played on the tv-dvd player only one movie ( the last one on the dvd ) would play . I did not use a 3rd party converter app as the dvd player advertised that it would play standard avi movies. I burned with Brassero and noted that half the dvd was still blank if that's relative .

I have been trying to burn an ISO to a blank DVD with Brasero Disc Burner, but every time I try, it gets at around 93% done, then gives me:
"The disc could not be ejected, though it needs to be removed for the current operation to continue"
I have attached a screenshot of the error. And this is not my error screenshot, I have a different DVD Drive. I just attached this one because I didn't want to wait for it to give me an error again so I could take my own screenshot.
Does anybody know why this happens? Or a way to fix it? Or a different software to burn ISO to DVD that is as simple as this one.
My CD burner seems to be writing to the disks, it gives me a progress bar, you can hear the disk rapidly spin then slow to about half speed, just like it does in Windows when it works. But it doesn't work in Ubuntu 10.10 32 bit?
This is a CD reader/ writer, but it only reads DVDs, not writes.
I just upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04 and so far I have those problems:
1. Before, everything in my system was in English. Now, half is in English, half in another language (PCManFM, some menus etc). I tried setting up Language Support but it changes nothing.
2. Cursor themes work only when hovering the mouse over "X" buttons in the right top corner of the window. As soon as I move the mouse somewhere else, it goes back to default cursor theme, even though I tried selecting 5 different themes - same result.
4. Hibernation don't work anymore. s2disk saves image to disk and then it resumes it but computer stops on text message along the lines of "Resume completed successfully".
5. Changing volume with keyboard shotcuts no longer works.
6. Smplayer does not display picture anymore when playing movies. The view is just empty. I can only hear the soundtrack. It is using XV filter.
7. PCmanFM that used to worked flawlessly, now after going into 1 or 2 subdirectories stops reacting to clicks on file/folder list. Need to open new instance to be able to do anything and this again would become unusable after visiting 1-2 folders.
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this. I'm not sure which veraion of linux I have but it was the latest veraon bfor the recent update. I accidentally hit alt ctrl f11 and my comp went inyo the grub menu. I've tried startx and it does nothing. About half the commands I enter do nothing and the other half r not found or are incorrect. The only vommand thw actualley work is reboot. I searched for this and read a grub guide but it did no good.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIt's been a while since I hosed my system, and I finally stopped procrastinating to backup, format, and reinstall. The latest disc I have available is 9.10, and getting new ones is a feat now that Canonical won't mail them to me. So I installed 9.10 and immediately upgraded to 10.04; somewhere in there it asked me where to installed GRUB and I told it sda1 but not sda, which was apparently a mistake.
I got an error about "grub_puts_" being undefined and used this guide per a relevant thread. I rebooted and got through GRUB, but now all that comes up is the purple background and my cursor; the mouse doesn't move, not that there's anything for it to click anyway. I went on #ubuntu IRC and was advised to do a clean install rather than an upgrade.
Of course I can just stay with 9.10 but would prefer the latest (of course it's about to be obsolete anyway...). I have also heard that it's possible to install to a USB drive; I'm guessing that likewise requires a CD? I guess what I'm wondering is whether I can use a 9.10 install to download and install 10.04 directly to a different device? Finding someone who has a CD burner is a real hassle.

Please tell me, this is the first time i am planning to use linux. I am a windows user.
My DVD/CD burner is rather old now (going on 5 years), and I've had some "quality" issues when I've been burning stuff for the past year.
CD's: When I play a burned CD in my car stereo, the songs have a "skipping" sound to them on the low-volume levels of the audio. I use K3b as my burning software, and it seems to be the best, but am I wrong? Is this a common problem?
DVD's: Specifically video DVD's. After converting the .avi to an image file using DeVeDe Creator, it gives me a file that has the .iso and I burn the disc using K3b. It's really hit or miss.
The question: is there a way to test the performance of my DVD burner to make sure it's working properly? Is there a way to calibrate the mechanism? I have a new External DVD/CD burner that supports "LiteScribe" (I could be mistaken on the name, but it's a technology that allows you to create a picture on the opposite side of the disc), but my INTERNAL is a 5 year old Lite-On.
just trying to copy a cd to ogg.. can see the music.. can see the burner gui..its asking for the path to the cd right click on the cd icon.. nothing.look in the 'computer' section of places.. useless.look in a load of folders, where it may be.. nothing.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got a new DVD burner and decided to get a cheapest burner (an LG SATA burner) I did not have much preferences on either IDE or SATA so I just got a serial ATA. K3B burns DVD's just fine, but the speed is pegged at 1x even though writing speed specified was 8x. Device buffer is fluctuating from 0 to 80% all the time, which seems to suggest that the data is not being fed into the drive at good sustained rate to write faster.
I tried:
hdparm -d /dev/sr0
which I got:
/dev/sr0:
HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
doing:
hdparm /dev/sr0

OpenSUSE 11.3, Brasero 2.30.1 Brasero can't detect dvd-burner. Dialogs, that should allow burner-device selection is grayed out and contain only one option "No disc available". The device itself is known to be working. How to fix this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis is a rather annoying problem I have with Linux on my laptop. Whenever I install any Linux distro that relies on grub (which is about 99 % apparently) it will mess up my DVD-drive and the drive will not be recognized after booting, no matter the OS (Ubunntu, Arch, Windows Vista or 7). I know the problem has nothing to do the DVD-drive itself, because I bought a new one a few months ago. I am also sure that grub is messing the drive up, because I have tried to use LILO, which worked fine (except for horrible boot times.)
This problem have persisted through about 3-4 years and it is a pretty bad show stopper whenever I want to work with Linux. I had hoped it would get fixed over time, but no one seems to have the exact problem I have. The drive is connected with an IDE connection. Update: The old drive was a Toshiba Samsung SN-S082. I don't know the model number of the new one, but it is HP (I think). Things I have tried to fix it: Mess about with some BIOS settings like enabling AHCI and change some IDE settings. Installing a different boot loader DOES fix the problem but I would like to use grub.
I've run into a problem when i put dvd's in it don't see them when i put cd's in it pick them right up?I have added my self to groups audio cdrom disks and a few others but no luck..I even changed out my dvd burner thinking it was messed up and the new one does the same.I'm thinking it something to do with the permission but i might be wrong or maybe something to do with permission for a dvd software dvdrw tools or something i don't know but i'm at a wits end.
When i put in a cd and goto yast>check media its all good but a dvd it say no media found.
burning dvds or cds was always a bit tricky on my computer. I don't know why, but when i tried to burn a dvd+/-r it always ended in failure. but when i burned a dvd+/-rw before i was able to burn normal dvds and cds. i never knew why i needed this trick but it worked fine, so i had no problems with that.But now my burner doesn't recognize dvd-rws anymore and that's a big problem!! it recognizes all blank dvd-r i have, but when i try to burn to them they fail. so i need to recognize my dvd-rws!!
