suggestions for DVD burning software


Hi All,

Just burned 14 simple data DVDs with gnomebaker and mailed to my siblings. So far 3 of them are unreadable. From my experience with Nero & XP, that is not very reliable, 3 of 14 being bad.

Anyone have suggestions that you have used that would be more reliable than gnomebaker?

Thanks for any suggestions.

This one seems to be held in high regard: http://perso.orange.fr/bonfire/ Also it might be an idea to verify your burns. I know it slows down the whole process but it saves embarrassment

I like k3b (I use it under gnome). It has a little box to check for disk verification.
