I have Ubuntu 14.04 running in dual-boot with Linux Mint 17 (both 64bit) on a brand new Dell Inspiron N4050 i3 and I'm having a serious burning issue. Everytime I try to burn something I end up with a DVD/CD that doesn't work - no matter what tool I use (Brasero, xfburn...). This happens on both distros.
Whenever I insert a CD/DVD, I get this error:
"UNABLE TO MOUNT BLANK DVD-R DISC. Location is already mounted"
What is wrong here?
Is there any CD/DVD burning app/ISO format which supports files and directories with long non-English (unicode) names? Apparently Joliet-long ISO standard supports filename up to 103 characters, but I'm not sure if it supports unicode as well, and if Brasero or any other Gnome app can burn DVDs with this format. I found out that an app called gBurner does quite a decent job, but unluckily it's a Win app.
I have to burn the contents of my external HDD, but since my data contains many downloaded pages (with companion HTML pages' directories containing pictures, JS scripts, CSS styles, and so on) and since many of those filenames contain non-English characters, I need some app/format to be capable of burining them safely on a DVD (without the old-fashioned need to compress the contents under a English filename), such that the content is readable on Linux and Win machines.
I can I produce those nice images on the back of my dvd (lightscribe)?
Is it possible on ubuntu?
I have to present an assessment for my Uni course in the form of a DVD movie (so it can be played on a DVD player) but so far, Brasero doesn't seem to be doing it. For example, I left it for over an hour today (as it said it was burning) and the DVD came out empty.
Other times, it flat out says it cannot burn the DVD. I am running Ubuntu 10.10, I have ubuntu restricted extras installed and the Medibuntu packages that allow me to watch DVDs.
Any ideas?
Are there any Nero Burning Softwares for Ubuntu ? The most important is to able burn Mp3 or songs files into the CD/DVD =)
