Today my news DVDs of 8 GB arrived, so that, I tried to record my music into one of them; Brasero didn’t worked and asked me for a valid disc. Then I tried to install k3b and I disabled all its USEs, all media features were removed. To tell you the truth I love k3b but it usually includes a lot of stuff, however, since I use Gentoo I can get through this. After that I tried to burn the DVD+R and it failed in the middle of the process twice (16GB of storage space lost ), next I recompile k3b with DVD support and I changed the path of the iso image to my documents instead of my /tmp folder (I think it could have made it fail) , and finally I selected no multi-session and chose the Rock Ridge/Joliet (custom) for it. In the end I achieved to burn it, even though, it didn’t read it. So, I plugged in my external DVD player and finally it was able to read the contents of my just recently burned disc.
