Thank you, once again, Thomas. I've noticed I omitted to post the command line: xorrecord dev=/dev/sr0 -v padsize=0 -multi fs=64m blank=format_overwrite Disc01.iso
I hope I'd followed your recommendation correctly. I am far from unhappy with the writing speed. Considering it has taken me a year to accumulate enough data for a couple of BD-Rs, this is far from the most important aspect of my life to begin optimising! (I got the BD writer to save time versus writing multiple DVDs, but, thanks to my stupid oversight with the USB port, it may now be several centuries before I have a credit balance.) As long as writing speed is reasonable, what is important for me is the quality of the recording; any time spent backing-up is waisted if you can't recover the data from the media when you need them, of course. I am considering having a go with cdck (I hope hearing about that doesn't send its developers into hiding), but I wonder how much this is verging on paranoia. I burnt a second copy of each ISO, which should give me a high probability of full recovery using gddrescue, if the time comes. By the way, I THINK I noticed that, during the formatting stage, each successive status line reported progress as 1%. Not really an issue, as the formatting completes before I have time to worry. Best wishes for an idiot-free future. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1458230 Title: libburn imposing 0.2x BD-R burn (5-6 hours) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libburn/+bug/1458230/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
