Question k3b - how to write dvd instead of cd when cd selected?


i selected to burn a cd, but it turns out i need more space and want to burn a dvd. how do i convert my project? i can't figure that out. drag and drop won't work. would be terrific with a quick answer since i want to set up my whole system anew today and need as much time as possible for that.

regards

If you are burning regular data just drag it off the cd onto your hard drive, then start a dvd burning session.

thank you for your reply!
problem is that i have selected a lot of specific files in a couple of hundred folders, which takes its time, and deleted others. dragging folders back from burning frame window to my harddisc doesn't work. and i don't want to waste more time by doing the selection once more in dvd-mode ... hope there is some convenient solution!

best regards

Ctrl+S doesn't save the project?

thank you for your reply. it saves it as a cd-project, not a dvd-project. and a cd-project could obviously not be imported to a new dvd-project. now i am running opensuse 11 and xp sp3 without any failures or errors, i enjoy this moment.

best regards
