Hi,
Has anyone enough experience with burning DVDs on Linux to tell us if there is anything like Burnatonce for us.
If you mean the things you find on www.burnatonce.com, considering that it's a GPLed software based on cdrdao, mkisofs and other staples of the windows world, I would say no, things like that will never be available for us :) I don't know if there's a GUI available that looks&feels exactly like it, but I have had great success with k3b, which also uses the same programs for the actual recording, so the end result should be the same. IMHO k3b is very easy to use as well
I have used Burnatonce on XP with CDs but have never used it for DVDs. I note that burnatonce used a "plugin" called ProDVD which requires a Free Non-Commercial Lic key from Frauhofer.
ProDVD is the version of cdrecord that supports DVD recording. SuSE's version of cdrecord does that out of the box, without a need for licensing.
I would love to hear your sucess stories about writing and copying DVDs.
I've so far burned 31 data DVDs and 3 movie DVDs in 9.1 with k3b, with only 2 coasters produced so far (don't use noname discs)
