Hi Mathf,

i have a problem burning DVD Isos. It happens the second time just right now, one time the burning process was okay.

So i choose a ISO File, choose Write-Speed 4x and then start Burning. Then i get this (attached).

The strange thing is that it says "CD-ROM 40x" but it is writing to a DVD...

And as you can see here it cant finish the dvd while writing the leadout

Sounds weird. I am burning DVD images without any problem. From what I see on the screenshots:
- Nero Linux passes DVD as media (DVD Image written on top)
- NeroAPI seems to recognize the disc as a CD.

I would suggest that you check what your disc info says in the 'Disc Info' dialog. Another question: if you leave the speed to 'Maximum' is it working?

This is really weird. I now started nero again, choosed the iso File and the speed was already set to 4x. Now i started burning again and it works.

Thats the second time i have exactly this problem in this order.

no more idea? i dont want to kill a media everytime i burn a dvd^^

I have exactly the same problem, it happends now and then, and the isos that are beeing burned don't work :/

Hummm... Really weird problem. Could you please attach the log files to this thread? You will find them in ~/.nero/NeroHistory.log.

Here we go...i just removed the serial no.

I experienced the DVD+R iso coaster yesterday, as well. The iso was the new Gentoo 2007.0 release and the md5sum was correct. The burn completed successfully but the disc would not boot. The same image burned to a DVD+RW disc thru Brasero booted just fine.

I also encountered this problem, started to burn up solaris 10 iso image on 16x speed but while burning screen said it was burning cd at 48x, completed successfully but I couldn't mount the disc afterwards.

(Using final 3.0.0 x86_64 on Gentoo ~amd64)

same problem here.
Also with UDF Discs. DVDs burn, verify, but it can´t be mounted.
dmesg shows this:
cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!
Unable to identify CD-ROM format.

made quite a bit of coasters.
Is the old 2.004 lying somewhere around?

Update:
After choosing UDF automatic, it works now.
strange strange

Sometimes, you have to specify that UDF format is on the disc, with the option '-t udf' when mounting the disc.
Another important point is that Linux kernel is not able to deal with UDF 2.50 or higher, and this file system is sometimes mandatory, but only on HD media.

I'm also having problems burning iso's in nerolinux. While burning the speed is 73x or about 11MB/sec. It also claims to be writing cdrom mode 1.

the same issue here. with ASUS DRW-1608P2S. but on my notebook burner, HL-DT-ST GSA-4080N, is everithing ok. im using only medias (16x).

Hey mathf,

still the same problem here. At the moment i can move every second media to /dev/null

and again

The important Q is: HOW were that ISOs created?

why? it is an iso...

Because of all that trouble!!

Read ALL of the posts...

I tried to burn the new openSuse 10.3 six times for now, and every time my DVDs were burned as CD-ROM in Mode 2 at 39,6x speed.
So far, I have never succeeded in burning a DVD-ISO with NeroLinux 3. I'll try it once again, but this time with a little help from k3b. Sorry, but it's my last DVD-R.
I hope that this will be fixed soon, because I like NeroLinux. But this is really annoying.

P.S. I'm on a openSuse 10.2 box

Sounds weird... really weird as I also have burned these images on a DVD (Ok, it was a +R, not a -R...) without a problem.

When copying DVDs on-the-fly I also experienced that sometimes Nero states that burning speed is 72.3x and it is a cd, and sometimes it recognizes the disc properly and the speed is 8x.
When I copied the same source dvd a few times to the very same type of blank DVD+R's I experienced this behaviour many times. I was not able to find any workaround or figure out how I can reproduce this behaviour. It just comes when it comes (72.3x speed I mean).

Some questions regarding this really strange issue:
- What is the speed displayed / selected in the burn tab of the 'Burn Image' dialog? Is it a DVD or a CD speed?
- Without a media inside when you click on burn, and before you insert it when Nero Linux pops up a 'Wait for Disc' dialog, what is written in the 'Status' field on the main window?

The burning speeds are recognized properly, 4,6,8,12 and 16x for this DVD+R. I double checked that the selected one was the 8x. As soon as I started copying in the burning dialog there was the confirmation that Nero is burning a CD(!) at 72.3x speed.
I cannot tell you anything about the "Wait for disc" dialog until I get home.
