It is not that simple. The same burn that failed with growisofs here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/dvd+rw- tools/+bug/1113679/comments/13 finishes correctly with cdrecord. Both burns where done with K3B in the same system. K3b can use any of growisofs or cdrecord. I used 2 blank BD-R from the same spindle and burned exacly the same 3 files into them. I have burned ~ 50 BD-R using K3B with cdrecord and they all burn flawlessly at 4X (1 GB/s). K3B using growisofs (besides never burning correctly), burns at 2X (and reports it as 4X) while keeping the burner's hardware buffer below 50%. K3B with drecord keeps is at 97+% all the time while burning. Basically growisofs is useless for BD-R. CDrecord should be the default or at least an easy to use option. Right now (and since BD-R where invented) you need to add a PPA and use K3B to actually burn BD-R. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1424215 Title: growisofs BD-R overflow error despite capacity check To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dvd+rw-tools/+bug/1424215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, It is not that simple. The same burn that failed with growisofs here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/dvd+rw-tools/+bug/1113679/comments/13 finishes correctly with cdrecord. [...] they all burn flawlessly at 4X (1 GB/s). K3B using growisofs (besides never burning correctly), burns at 2X (and reports it as 4X) while keeping the burner's hardware buffer below 50%. K3B with drecord keeps is at 97+% all the time while burning. That's all because cdrecord does not automatically format BD-R before writing. (Neither do libburn based programs like xfburn, cdrskin, or xorriso.) You can achieve the same effect with growisofs by option -use-the-force-luke=spare:none In previous versions of K3B there was a menu to set options for backend programs ... Setup External Programs, User Parameters. Basically growisofs is useless for BD-R. Ah no. I am a competitor of growisofs, but would not say that. Actually growisofs has more clue about the MMC aspects of BD media than cdrecord. It's just that Andy wanted to be smart with auto-formatting and regrettably quit maintaining of growisofs before he could iron out the consequential bugs.
