Re: growisofs did not exit cleanly :P

Given your previous problems with K3b+growisofs this might
be related to burner+media. But usually growisofs should
issue some kind of error message with a little frown in
such a case.

I doubt this, because it's only happen with DVD+-RWs as for now,
but not with DVD-Rs. I also didn't experience this problem when using 5.21.
Guess that something was changed from that time which causing this error


I can't reproduce it with DVD+RW... As you maintain that only rewritable media is affected, could you just experiment with command line? I.e. use growisofs with various options from command prompt instead of k3b, *but* complement the line with return code printout, e.g.

    growisofs -Z /dev/hdc -R /some/place; echo $?

so that the error can be identified. A.

Hello Andy! Sorry for late reply but I've got a lot of problems on my head this week so didn't have time to perform all tests and answer you.

I've already got rid of this problem at least with one of my DVD-RW Samsung Pleomax 4x,(I think that it's happen after I've format it like was suggested earlier dvd+rw-format -force /dev/hdc ) Now when I insert DVD-R disk it ask if it should be Overwritten. I still have one TDK and Traxdata disks which wasn't formatted like this.
I've tried to execute your command ang got this:

I specially leave Traxdata for tests, so if you need me to perform something with it, just let me know. TDK disk isn't at home but once I get it back it's for your service as well.
Hope it helps.
