Public bug reported: I am using K3b to burn data DVD's. I have been using the program for years with no problems. But now, the program will not burn data DVk3bD's. It claims to be 'flushing the cache' which I have never seen before. it then cancels without writing anything.
Here is the debugging report: Burned media ----------------------- DVD+R Devices ----------------------- ASUS SDRW-08D1S-U 1.02 (/dev/sr0, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-R DL, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL) [DVD-ROM, DVD-R Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Sequential, DVD-R Dual Layer Jump, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite, DVD-RW Sequential, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD+R Dual Layer, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW] [SAO, TAO, RAW, SAO/R96P, SAO/R96R, RAW/R16, RAW/R96P, RAW/R96R, Restricted Overwrite, Layer Jump] [%7] K3b::IsoImager ----------------------- mkisofs print size result: 789478 (1616850944 bytes) System ----------------------- K3b Version: 2.0.2 KDE Version: 4.13.3 QT Version: 4.8.6 Kernel: 3.19.0-64-generic Used versions ----------------------- mkisofs: 1.1.11 growisofs: 7.1 growisofs ----------------------- Executing 'builtin_dd if=/dev/fd/0 of=/dev/sr0 obs=32k seek=0' /dev/sr0: "Current Write Speed" is 8.2x1352KBps. :-[ WRITE@LBA=220h failed with SK=3h/WRITE ERROR]: Input/output error :-( write failed: Input/output error /dev/sr0: flushing cache growisofs command: ----------------------- /usr/bin/growisofs -Z /dev/sr0=/dev/fd/0 -use-the-force-luke=notray -use-the-force-luke=tty -use-the-force-luke=4gms -use-the-force-luke=tracksize:789478 -speed=8 -use-the-force-luke=bufsize:32m mkisofs ----------------------- 789478 I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) 0.06% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.13% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.19% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.25% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.32% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.38% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.44% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.51% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.57% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.63% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.70% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.76% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.82% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.89% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 0.95% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 1.01% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:22:18 2016 1.08% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:50 2016 1.14% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:45 2016 1.20% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:41 2016 1.27% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:36 2016 1.33% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:33 2016 1.39% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:29 2016 1.46% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:26 2016 1.52% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:23 2016 1.58% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:21 2016 1.65% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:18 2016 1.71% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:16 2016 1.77% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:14 2016 1.84% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:12 2016 1.90% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:10 2016 1.96% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:08 2016 2.03% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:07 2016 2.09% done, estimate finish Mon Jul 4 10:23:05 2016 mkisofs calculate size command: ----------------------- /usr/bin/genisoimage -gui -graft-points -print-size -quiet -volid K3b data project -volset -appid K3B THE CD KREATOR (C) 1998-2010 SEBASTIAN TRUEG AND MICHAL MALEK -publisher -preparer -sysid LINUX -volset-size 1 -volset-seqno 1 -sort /tmp/kde-robert/k3bcF2851.tmp -rational-rock -hide-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3bcS2851.tmp -joliet -joliet-long -hide-joliet-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3bVs2851.tmp -no-cache-inodes -full-iso9660-filenames -iso-level 3 -path-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3baq2851.tmp mkisofs command: ----------------------- /usr/bin/genisoimage -gui -graft-points -volid K3b data project -volset -appid K3B THE CD KREATOR (C) 1998-2010 SEBASTIAN TRUEG AND MICHAL MALEK -publisher -preparer -sysid LINUX -volset-size 1 -volset-seqno 1 -sort /tmp/kde-robert/k3bGS2851.tmp -rational-rock -hide-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3btQ2851.tmp -joliet -joliet-long -hide-joliet-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3bmn2851.tmp -no-cache-inodes -full-iso9660-filenames -iso-level 3 -path-list /tmp/kde-robert/k3bbh2851.tmp I believe the problem lies in the growisofs program, for I have tried other burning programs and the same thing occurs ** Affects: dvd+rw-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598868 Title: growisofs bug To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dvd+rw-tools/+bug/1598868/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
