unable to burn cdaudio with k3b

CrashedAgain · 12-08-2006, 06:20 PM

Debian Etch/upgraded to Sid system.
I am unable to burn audio cd's with k3b although I AM able to burn data CD's and DVD's OK.
I get no indication of what's wrong, K3B just reports "I/O error" and quits. There is no debug output either, the "show debuggng output" dialog just reports the system & k#b versions & the hardware drive properties.
Can anyone help, or at least help with how to debug this one? I know k3B uses cdrecord but what commands would I use to try to manually simulate burning an audio cd with cdrecord (so I can check if the problem is cdrecord or k3B)?

Thanks

K3b keeps a log in a hidden directory in your home user space. Look for lastlog.log. It might have information.

As an alternative, start k3b from the command line, then try to burn an audio cd. If (when) it fails, close k3b, then read error messages in the console window.

Lastlog just has the same info as the debug output:

Code:

[System] K3b Version: 0.12.17
[System] KDE Version: 3.5.5
[System] QT Version:  3.3.7

starting from console gives:

Looks like something is not set up properly somewhere. How do I fix??

use mpg321 to convert the files and xcdroast to burn them.

That's not really a solution; k3b is supposed to work. and in fact it does work on my other (upgraded Kanotix BH9) system.

JZL240I-U · 12-13-2006, 07:55 AM

K3b has a screen/menu where you can look at the defaults and / or user specific settings (don't ask me for the exact location, just look, there are not that many places

).

One place might be the driver (I used to use raw) another the programs K3b triggers. As its error says something about movies when you want to burn a music CD, there might be something amiss here...
