Version: 2.0 RC2 (using KDE 4.4.2) Compiler: gcc 4.4.3 OS: Linux Installed from: Gentoo Packages I created a data project with 7.1 GB of data, inserted an empty DVD-DL (Verbatim), tried to burn it and it said that I need to insert an empty DVD-DL... Strange thing is that K3b knows about it being inserted - when I show the info about the medium it says it's empty with 8.0 GB of free space so I don't know where the problem is. Burner model is: LITE-ON DVDRW SH-16A7S cdrtools 2.01.01_alpha77 dvd+rw-tools 7.1
Is this a rewritable DVD-DL?
Created attachment 42721 [details] Patch to fix the media type flag combinations Please check if this patch fixes your problem with media detection.
Your patch didn't help, unfortunately. It's still the same. It is not rewritable, just DVD-R DL.
I've overriden it by creating an ISO image first and then burning it. It burns now but there's a minor problem with a dialog that's asking me whether I want to add the ISO image into the data project that's opened or burn it directly - when I hit the "Burn the image directly" button the dialog didn't disappear and it was stuck behind the burn-progress window. But that's a detail compared to the original bug.
Could you please check if DVD-R DL is amongst the supported writing media types as reported by K3b's device settings.
Yep. It is there.
Insert the DVD-R DL and then try Device->Media Info. What does k3b think the disc is?
I should clarify my previous comment. It would be good if you could show us all of the medium info.
@David Watzke: could you paste the info requested in comment #7. Without your help we wouldn't able to resolve the issue.
I'm sorry but I don't have any DVD-R DL medium at the moment, so I can't provide the needed info.
Ok, I'm changing status of the bug to "waiting for info" till more info will be provided. We aren't able to reproduce this issue at the moment.
