I need software to allow K3b to burn Blu-ray discs. I get "This PPA does not support focal" . How can I get a PPA that supports focal?
 

I'm trying to download the Silicon Empire software to allow K3b to burn Blu-ray discs. when I enter: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/apps" on the command line, I get a "This PPA does not support focal" message. How can I get a PPA that supports focal?
I'm running Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon.

k3b is available from the regular Focal repos. You don't need a PPA to install it.

What you probably do need are cdrtools (cdrecord, mkisofs) available from ppa:brandonsnider/cdrtools. And even that is not given: first try if you can manage it with wodim and genisoimage.

I always burn with cdrskin from the command line. If you have an .iso image this is most easy to do:
cdrskin -v dev=/dev/sr0 my.iso

K3B will recognize a blank blu-ray disc like any other.

Is it not?

Should use Mint's repos on Mint. :)

(So, ignore this quick search for: This PPA does not support focal, e.g; https://www.how2shout.com/linux/fix-...support-focal/ :D)
