Previously to do this i ran dvdbackup from ports as in: dvdbackup -i /dev/cd1 -o /path -M which worked. I then used growisofs as in: growisofs -Z /dev/cd1 -dvd-video /path which made a dvd video and it worked fine. I do have a separate issue with audio mp3 burning to CD, whereas filenames are truncated any idea on that? But with multilayered dvds, i run dvdbackup and growisofs and get a coaster as a result. My drive is capable of burning dual-layered dvds and my player is capable of playing them so neither is the issue, i'm assuming there's an extra step i have to do but am uncertain as to what it is. I've asked on several lists without success. Can you get me pointed in the right direction? I've noted lxdvdrip and have installed it, but i'd rather know a working procedure before i smoke another of these disks. Thanks. Dave.
