[Bug 1424215] Re: growisofs BD-R overflow error despite capacity check

[Federico Tello Gentile]

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.
