I've been trying to burn a CD iso file I downloaded from the internet. It is a six-year-old program, and the developer no longer supports it.
In any case, the .bin file I'm using is roughly 730MB in size. In other words, I need to overburn the CD in order to make it fit.
Everytime I've tried this - using overburn - with K3B, I get an error saying I've got a buffer underrun.
Lowering the writing speed sometimes helps against buffer underruns. You can set it by hand in k3b, but it is normally set to "auto".
Interesting - this may be one instance where I'm going to have to try this on Wintendo. (I have Roxio on my Win2K system.) Apparently, you cannot set the speed - or any other option like TAO - when burning an image. The options tabs are simply greyed out. Command line didn't work either to set the speed down. On my laptop, the minimum burn speed is 8x. At least with the command line version, I can use a "dummy" flag to not write to the CDR.

Are you talking about "Burn CD Image" in K3B? On mine, I can set the burn speed for any of the "Image Types". Maybe it's something to do with the type of device you have installed? Then again, I've never done overburn (is this something you set in an option somewhere? I couldn't find it.), so maybe that is why mine aren't greyed out.

K3b has the option to allow overburning under 'Settings>Configure k3b>Writing Settings>Advanced' HTH David -- Windows Sucks! Linux Works! Windows Crashes! Linux Has A.B.S & Airbags!
