Hi Curt,

what certainly looks odd in your case is that you try to burn a DVD from
a floppy source... My guess is that you have a misconfigured k3b
somehow. I don't use k3b myself, so I can't point out the error, but 
'growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /some/files' (see 'man growisofs') has
always worked for me. What kind of video do you want to write? Try
looking at the input configuration for video in k3b.

Hth,
