Re: Can't burn DVD -- incompatible format

Hello!

I had the same problem and read all over the internet users complains up today not being able to burn CD's/DVD's by none of the Fedora supplied burning tools. Here is the technical discussion of why. I actually uploaded the latest cdrtools package for Fedora 13 (download link is on the bottom) also with a little bit of hacking or even without shouldn't be problem to install on latest Fedora distros I think. But if someone is interested then can hack on cdrecord-3.00-1.fc13.src.rpm file and produce packages for the latest Fedora releases!

Before I Installed this packages I actually removed following packages from my Fedora 13 system: wodim, icedax, readom
When rpm complaint about brasero or k3b depends of this packages I just ignored by adding flag --nodeps and later for any reason also added symbolic links to be sure although maybe not needed to not get some system errors:

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/cdrecord -> /usr/bin/wodim
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/cdda2wav -> /usr/bin/icedax

Packages to download/install:
DOWNLOAD LINK FOR CDRTOOLS 3.00 PACKAGES FOR FEDORA 13

cdrecord-3.00-1.fc13.i686.rpm
btcflash-3.00-1.fc13.i686.rpm
smake-1.2.1-1.2.i686.rpm
schily-cdrtools-3.00-1.fc13.i686.rpm
mkisofs-3.00-1.fc13.i686.rpm
cdda2wav-3.00-1.fc13.i686.rpm
cdrecord-3.00-1.fc13.src.rpm
