DVD Burners


Does anyone know of some good DVD burners that work with Linux? The Linux Hardware List does not seem to work anymore.

They are just like all other IDE burners, they use SCSI emulation. You'll need a later version of cdrecord or patch an old one so that you get DVD write support (from the large files).

Cool

Well I thought that at first, but the TDK DVD burner I got last night did not work, and that was using cdrecord to make a CD. When I plugged my TDK CD writer in, all was groovy.

So are you saying that I need to download and install the DVD athoring tools to even burn CD Roms?
