 |
|
i get this running xcdroast as root cuz i just installed and need to setup the config file.
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# xcdroast
** (xcdroast:6968): WARNING **: Invalid cdrecord-ProDVD version 2.01.01a01 found.
Expecting at least version 2.01a11
Start xcdroast with the -n option to override (not recommended!)
|
when i emerge -s cdrecord-prodvd get:
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# emerge -s cdrecord-prodvd
Searching...
[ Results for search key : cdrecord-prodvd ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]
* app-cdr/cdrecord-prodvd
Latest version available: 2.01.01-r1
Latest version installed: 2.01.01-r1
Size of downloaded files: 368 kB

How do i get the latest version? (might it be masked? in that case how do i get it out?)

| No, that is the latest version. It might be that xcdroast is choking on the slightly odd version number, I'm not really sure how to fix that. |

Yep, but could be, that you have to include the noncommercial-license for example in a little xcdroast wrapper script:
| Code: | #!/bin/sh
export CDR_SECURITY="8:dvd,clone:sparc.......andtherestoftheverylonglicensekeyyoufindatthedeveloperspageasdescribedinthelinkftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README"
/usr/bin/xcdroast -n
|
Don't forget to exclude the -n, when the versionumber boogie is solved. I think there is also a cdrecordwrapper.sh which does similar stuff, but I don't know whether this works hand in hand with xdcroast.

It also says " (not recommended!)" , do you know the results of ignoring that recommendation?

Not exactly, but I would assume, that you receive weird errors, when the underlying library does not have certain features used by xcdroast.
In this case here, it is just a version number boogie, but as I said the -n has to be removed again.
| Code: | | 2.01.01a01 vs 2.01.all |
I do not know who has settled the version number or who did the version number check, but from my point of view the warning is nonsense in this situation as we have the same major and the same minor build number, only the micro build numbers are differently.

Many 
I think for kde users k3b is quite common.
Edit: Err, I don't know whether k3b can burn DVDs too.

It's as writing a cd. Make an image. If it reaches the magical 1 GB limit you will see, whether the key you have included is working or not, the library will complain, when you have no license and try to write an image with a size greater than one gig.

Sigh, maybe read again line by line! 
There is a key for non-commercial use included in the file as well as a hint to read another file for requesting a comercial key by email (README.key).

Simply run it with -n. There is some boogie with the version number recognition and as of now I have not encountered any trouble running xcdroast with -n. The version requested is 2.01.all and provided is 2.01.01a01. I guess there is no critical difference between these two versions.

k3b is pretty good but if you use xfce or gnome you will probably double the size of your system with all the crap you have to pull in with it. (half of kde !)
It cant copy with ide-scsi any more and the interface misbehaves a bit if it is run outside kde.
Apart from that it is a flexible and reliable tool.
xcdroast is nice because it goes straight for the root device rather than depending on /dev , this makes its device detection much more reliable and robust to the vaguaries of devfs/udev et al.

It seems that you can enter the key from the setup dialogue in the prog. That saves all the farting around with wrappers and exports.
I have not burnt a DVD yet but it has stopped nagging me when I start xcdroast -n so I guess its accepted it.
