Hi, Thomas.
I'm sending this information as per our recent conversation on the
debian-user list.
I'm happy to say that converting my tar.gz data archives to .iso format
and then using xorriso to burn those to DVD+RW were successful this past
weekend.
I burn two such data sets (approximately 4 gigabytes each) every
weekend. The first one this time succeeded without error. Unfortunately
I didn't think to record its output to send to you.
The second dataset failed the first time with the following output:
----------8<----------
address@hidden:~$ xorriso -as cdrecord -v dev=/dev/sr0 blank=as_needed

----------8<----------
At the position of the ellipsis I've omitted the majority of the output
but noted that the burn ran at 2.4x all the way through until it failed.
I showed just the last few lines of the burn run stdout before the summary.
Immediately after this, I used the same disc and same .iso image using
the same xorriso command. The burn succeeded this time with a summary of:
----------8<----------
Writing to '/dev/sr0' completed successfully.
xorriso : NOTE : Re-assessing -outdev '/dev/sr0'
Drive current: -outdev '/dev/sr0'
Media current: DVD+RW
Media status : is written , is appendable
Media summary: 1 session, 1876700 data blocks, 3665m data, 817m free
----------8<----------
However, I noticed that the burn speed was 4.0x all the way through
this time, and on the first successful data burn to another DVD+RW disc.
The burn speed throughout the unsuccessful try was 2.4x.
I'm sorry that I didn't get more information for you. I'm hard-pressed
to do anything but take care of my medical issues right now. But I may
get a breather from that in a couple of weeks. I can also provide info
on my system specs if you need that.
At that time, if I'm able, I would be glad to try various different disc
types. I have DVD+Rdl, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, and CD-R on hand. I'd also be
glad to try other command line utilities and/or xfburn to see if they
behave differently.
Thr three tries and two successes this weekend was HUGELY better than
any previous try at burning in recent months, so xorriso is a keeper in
my book.
For my own convenience I could consider just burning the data archives
directly, or I could try to figure out how to produce the .iso images
without doing a two-step process. Not sure yet if xorriso will do that,
but I could install genisoimage and just create the .iso directly from
the data directories.
Many thanks for your interest and help -- and also for the very
effective xorriso package, which I only learned about recently.
Best regards,
Jape
