Re: DVD works in Linux, not windows
I don't quite understand why this has degenerated from a technical
discussion into an emotional one.
I use cdrecord every day and I believe it's a great program. It's in the
nature of this technology that issues with specific pieces of hardware
will pop up.
Can we concentrate on solving the problems, rather than worrying about all
of this peripheral stuff (if you'll excuse the pun)?
