SOLVED Re: growisofs error



Solved. User error.

I had dragged and dropped the *directory* VIDEO_TS and dropped it into 
the K3b DVD project VIDEO_TS location, when I should have been 
copying the *files*.

While the error given doesn't give me any clue that this is what I had 
done wrong, at least the problem is discovered, and fixed.

I will not slap myself silly so I don't do this again.
