yes, moon is a important factor here, sometimes it makes the disc spin weird and burn fails

also can make spin the user in his chair, desktop vibrates and write process fails  ;D

On the next full moon, go outside and look up at her. Apologize for your offenses. Do this every full moon until you know you are forgive. You'll know when that is because things will start to work.

Hey!  Success!  It worked!

maybe, last time, it was a bad disk or mounted improperly or?????

I dunno. It worked and works.

Chalk it up to operator error, I guess :-[ :P

I can't remember if this was asked already, but did you reboot immediately after installing k3b?

But starting around last Oct or Nov, K3b crashes when trying to burn images

Same here.
I just burned the knoppix 3.4G iso with ktorrent
Used 6x
It burned 98% and then gave me a crash error:
fatal error during recording:input/output error

However, the ( bad ? ) burned Cd seemed to boot up properly.
Didn't test any further yet

Xena

Exactly the same here.

K3b is already in 2.02, so annoying errors like this which have plagued the program for years should have been fixed for good a long time ago.

I mean, if one can burn an iso with the command line, why is a gui unable to do it correctly?

Brasero fares little better; at 2.31.1 it still can't eject the dvd by itself and can't check md5 sums...

I guess I'm a lucky dawg when it comes to k3b. It has worked flawless for me for years but I've recently upgraded my cd/dvd burner to sata retiring the ide to keep up with the software.

+1 It has never failed here. And both grafburn and brasero work, too. I try to recreate the problems others post about but without success. :-\

+1 here too. I can't remember the last time I had a problem with K3B, but it was many years ago. I've had problems with specific brands of disks, on given older burners, but that was a firmware upgrade problem, not a K3B specific problem.

Last week I burned Full Monty ISO with K3b
It gave me the same error again.
I installed FM, and there is no trouble ( so far )
The same with the Knoppix DVD

3 weeks ago, I burned more than 20 data DVDs ( all 4.2G+ ).
No hitch nor glitch

I don't see where people have mentioned what set up they use in k3b when the failures occur.

In past threads I have seen where people recommended the slowest burn speed for the best burn.

For some time, I have meant to comment on that recommendation.

Most of my machines have used optical drives that I acquired at thrift stores. They usually ether work when I get them or they are dead on arrival.

The one deviation from this is the three LG drives that I bought new. Two are IDE interface and one is SATA. Otherwise, they appear to be the same mechanism.

The reason I bring this up is that, if I set these LG drives to burn at the slowest speed, I get about a fifty percent failure rate in the burns. The brand and type of media also seems to be a factor here.

If I just let k3b choose what it considers to be the optimum settings, I never get a bad burn.

So, for those having trouble, try it using the full automatic settings and see what happens.

Or, at least tell us what model of drive you are using and what speed etc. the burn was made at. Maybe we can find a common factor when the failures occur.

Here is what I did just now.

A
Took the Full Monty ISO and verified the md5...OK
Put a DVD in the burner and burned it with K3b at 6 times speed.
At 98% , K3b stalled for 30 seconds
It gave me the following information: 3.989.0  of 4.046.0
Then it finished with the usual input/output error message.

I counted the bits on the DVD  :  4.243.627.418

B
I opened up Acetoneiso and mounted the Full Monty iso.
Burned at 12 times speed ( actually, started at 6 and ended at 7.2 )
No error message, but...successful
I counted the bits on the DVD........4.243.627.418

Exactly the same.
As far as I am concerned, K3b is burning DVD ISOs all right , but for one or other reason giving an error message which is incorrect

As I said, for me....Solved

Can we go back to bed now ?

I know this thread is old, but still relevant for me.

I have just encountered the 98% error message again. It still happens from time to time. What I have noticed is that it happens when I use a DVD-RW. I reformat it using K3B, which also gives an error message, but yet still works. The MD5SUM was correct before burning. From memory, the DVD always works after I see this error. However it does still leave that bit of discomfort and doubt in my mind. I suspect its to do with the media / burner (slight compatibility issue). It always seems to large ISO's (Linux/BSD distros), and I use DAO mode. I've never seen errors with cdrecord (wodim).
