BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Spoken like a true bum boy on behalf of micoshaft!

There are hundreds of free livecds out there to try this stuff
out for yourself folks and call this
lie from micoshaft/sun$ astroturfers.
These livecds boot from CD and automagically detect all
your hardware and you don't have to install it to try it!

With Mepis I am watching a full length mpeg video
and burning 16x speed with K3b from same hard disk with a
750MHz Duron PC. I can run Mepis / knoppix etc and get many other
good results for speed and performance http://www.livecdlist.com

boson, this wasn't about k3b! i goofed and put burning instead of
ripping.

you just read headlines, don't you?

btw, it works for ripping and windows can play the mps, no problem.

i use k3b to burn to cd and dvd... windows reads my files just fine!
in fact, i can burn to dvds that windows' sonic uses to burn drink
coasters.

i know why you don't understand linux... you just read the
headlines... linux isn't just a headline.

I just thought you were looking for boy love. You won't find it here

Well, considering that both CD and DVD formats are published
ISO standards, why would they have any problem? I burn CDs
and DVDs all the time in Linux. My girfriend's Linux box is
set to record shows from the satellite dish and burn them
straight to DVD for later viewing on a consumer DVD player.
I recently burned music CDs of a local band for my nephew,
and a data disk of family photos for other family members.
Did those with the stock Linux tools... no problems at all.

What sort of problems should I have had?

According to the many WinTroolies around here,
you should have had at least one of the following problems:

[1] Bad or no hardware support.
[2] Crappy GUIs.
[3] Coaster generation.
[4] Complicated command lines that nobody apart from a rocket
scientist can understand.
[5] No support.

:-)

(Personally, I've had no real problems burning CDs. I've not tried
burning DVDs but have had no problems reading DVDs once I figured out
the region code issue.)

I've never had any problem with Linux recognizing any CD or DVD drive,
ever... and I've set up a LOT of Linux systems.

[2] Crappy GUIs.

I've only used xroast as far as GUI CD burning goes. Seemed OK to me.
I know there are other ones that are supposed to rock, but I really am
more of a command line hack.

[3] Coaster generation.

I've had more problems with Windows and Mac in the area of coaster
generation. My windows box would sometimes 'stutter' as some background
task would kick in, the burn fifo would drop to empty, and I am gifted
with a coaster. No problem with Linux, though my Linux system is
roughly the same hardware wise (1GB RAM, 2.8Ghz CPU). The windows box
did improve after I killed a lot of the background cruft that various
applications and peripherals had loaded. My Mac improved after I added
more RAM.

[4] Complicated command lines that nobody apart from a rocket
scientist can understand.

GUI programs are nice, but there should always be a command line
equivalent to allow scripting. My girlfriend's Linux box is set
up to automatically burn shows to DVD (got tired of the hard
drive filling up). Whether grabbing it from the satellite dish
or downloading it from the net, I can mark a file for burning and
it will happen automatically as soon as their is a disk in the
drive (ejecting when done). We just swap disks whenever we see
it open, and throw it in the stack of shows to watch when we get
time.

[5] No support.

A yes, the myth of commercial support. How often have you ever
actually received worthwhile free technical support for the
consumer product you purchased? If you want real support, you
either need to pay for it or find a friend willing to help you.
Those options are the same on any platform.

(Personally, I've had no real problems burning CDs. I've not tried
burning DVDs but have had no problems reading DVDs once I figured out
the region code issue.)

The tools for authoring DVD menus are still a little rough around
the edges, but if all you want is to dump some video to a DVD so
it will play when you insert the disk, that is relatively easy.
I like how I can take any video file and pass it to a script that
will reformat to mpeg4, set the compression ratio so it will fit,
generate the iso image, and eject the disk after burning.

Over time, I've been layering a bit of point-n-click over my scripts
until I've almost created a user friendly PVR. I realize I could have
just used MythTV or Freevo, but I sometimes have a serious case of
'not invented here' syndrome... I like my apps to work exactly the
way I want. I've basically created a GUI menu that ties together
applications for video capture, p2p downloads, video playback, dvd
burning, mp3 playback, and playing arcade games via Mame. I've
rigged it so I can use my wireless mouse like a remote. The whole
thing just sort of grew out the front-end I originally wrote for
my Mame cabinet (a converted Centipede arcade game). I'm tempted
to release it as an open source project... but it needs some
serious cleanup before I would be willing to let others see it.

Later,

Thad

If you pop a CDR in on an Ubuntu system, a new window will pop
up. This "folder" represents the master image for your new disk. Just
drop things in it and hit the burn button and out will pop a suitable
disk.
