To: "Fedora List" users@lists.fedoraproject.org Date: Friday, July 2, 2010, 2:01 PM I sometimes backup some data files to dual layer DVD using k3b. On fedora 13, I notice that k3b seems to try and use wodim by default to do this. On previous versions it used growisofs.
After burning a few coasters and doing much google searching, I finally noticed the option in the burn dialog for selecting the app to use, told it to use growisofs, and it burned the dual layer DVD with no problem using the same media wodim always failed on after writing about 1 gig.
So, if I should report this as a bug, what should it be a bug against? K3b or wodim? Is wodim supposed to be able to write dual layer DVDs?
Don't know, but the real cdrecord does burn to dvds even Blue Ray Media, but this not part of the question, right?

File it against k3b.
Why? Like you have said, it used growisofs at one point. Now it wants to use wodim, why does it want to change behavior.
BTW, k3b-2.0.0 has been released. Maybe there Rex, Kevin, and other KDE devlopers can include the fix?
