I recently recieved some DVD images that I needed to burn and found that some of them could not be burnt with k3b/growisofs. Every time I would try to burn a DVD image I would get an input out put error(posted below). I downloaded the Nero for Linux trial and it worked fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open up k3b 2. Select burn a DVD burn 3. Select a DVD image 4.

Also note that it does not appear to be related to bug #95357 I tried their patch and ebuild I get the same results.
I think this problem is with mkisofs/cdrecord. I just tried to burn a normal data CD and I got an error.

Created attachment 77658 [details] k3b debug output
I was burning my DVDs just fine with the 2.6.14 kernel untill I decided to do gentoo update last week. After updating about 90 packages, and keeping the same kernel, every other DVD that I tried to burn would fail with: ":-( unable to PERFORM OPC: Input/output error" see the full k3b output in the attachments. (k3b debug output) I thought this was a bug in the new k3b, but after performing the growisofs command mentioned in the debug info, I got the same error once, and the second time, the DVD burned fine... Seeing that there is only one version of dvd+rw-tools in portage, I can't see which upgraded package actually causes this problem.
In my case, I noticed that after the error occurs dmesg prints: hdc: irq timeout: status=0x90 { Busy } ide: failed opcode was: unknown hdc: DMA disabled hdc: ATAPI reset complete hdc: lost interrupt and something turns off DMA on my dvd burner according to hdparm
I had the same (?) input/output error with version 5.21. It seemed like DVDs had only the lenght of CDs, any further writing (somewhere above 700MB) resulted in an error. I 'solved' the problem by upgrading to dvd+rw-tools' unstable version 6.1. This was a typical output growisofs gave: ----------------- # growisofs -Z /dev/hdd=/tmp/k3b_image.img -dvd-compat WARNING: /dev/hdd already carries isofs!

I had this error: :-( Failed to change write speed: 2770->3324 and it went away after I upgraded to dvd+rw-tools-6.1, it's probably safe to mark it stable, imo.
also got this while upgrading: QA Notice: ECLASS 'portability' inherited illegally in app-cdr/dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8 i've been getting a lot of these recently..
Can you test with app-cdr/cdrkit-{1.0,1.1.0} and app-cdr/dvd+rw-tools-7.0?
