Hi,
Can anyone gives me some advice on DVD burning (DATA) on Linux ?

Does it work well ? on redhat or ? Which software ?

What about external burners on 1394 or USB2 ?

TIA,

/Klona

Jan Panteltje gathered and modified some tools for DVD creation
http://www.home.zonnet.nl/panteltje/dvd/

he links to cdrecord and dvd+rw-tools (for DVD+)
on the dvd-author mailinglist people seem to have success.
no personal experiences (no linux and no burner (yet))

regards

Wow after a week of screwing around I can burn DVD-Rs on my linux RH9 system with a Pan Lf-D310 burner with cdrecord-DvdPro. It was pretty frustrating I loaded the lastest cdrecord-DVDpro2.0-1 gnu binary and followed directions to load with the wrapper and I kept getting the wrong driver. Than after thinking it might be firmware,udf module interferingetc., it might be this or that I decided to load an older version of the binary - That was it.
This version worked. The newer one must have a bad driver call or something. Anyway it is feeling good to be able to burn DVD-R in linux. By the way the dvd-ram feature in this drive is drag and drop in linux and fully compatible to exchange data with winxp using UDF2.0

I have bought my DVD recorder this week (a NEC 1000A, +R/+RW)
If you have a +R/W writer, look at http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/

I cannot give more help, as I have not yet used it under linux, but hope to do it during the weekend.
Good luck!
