There's also XFburn, that doesn't require KDE. You could burn data discs straight from the Nautilus file browser (probably with a plug-in), but I haven't tried that since several releases back. I've usually found that weird burning issues were often due to crappy blank discs. With poor quality control, the next disc in the stack wasn't quite as bad as the prior, and you don't nail the issue down to the right problem. Or simply, that when the drive has another go at focussing on the disc, it succeeds. I've found that if, when you insert a blank, the drive spends ages whizzing around trying to figure out the disc, that indicates its a bad one. Good discs whiz up virtually instantly. These days I only use Verbatim discs. There's usually only been 2 or 3 brands to try at my shops, they've been very good, just about all others have been dire. It can also be a compatibility issue with your drive and the discs. The discs could be good, but your drive may be bad, or simply doesn't like that brand. And drives do wear out, or simply age badly even without lots of use. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
