I've been having problems burning DVDs using K3B recently. I know I used to do this, not too long ago, maybe 2-3 months.. Now I'm getting errors, and K3B says it burns the DVD, then ejects it, but it is empty. Or it stops about 30% of the way and errors out. I've tried slowing down the burn rate, no luck. I have no clue what to do. I even tried running K3B from a root terminal. When I run k3b to create a video DVD here is the console output: Capacity: 510:38:38 (LBA 2297888) (4706074624 Bytes) Remaining size: 510:38:38 (LBA 2297888) (4706074624 Bytes) Used Size: 00:00:00 (LBA 0) (0 Bytes) (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0: GET PERFORMANCE dataLen = 72 (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0: GET PERFORMANCE successful with reported length: 68 (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0: Number of supported write speeds via GET PERFORMANCE: 4 (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0 : 22160 KB/s (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0 : 16620 KB/s (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0 : 11080 KB/s (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0 : 5540 KB/s adding udi /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_empty_dvd_r (K3bDevice::Device) /dev/scd0: GET CONFIGURATION length det failed.
