Burning ISO's directly to DVD's
Hi everybody
I've attached my Samsung USB DVD burner to the front USB port on my RN314. Put in a blank recordable DVD.
Installed growisofs by using apt-get in a shell session. (apt-get install growisofs)
Afterwards I installed lsusb to enum the connected devices. The output looks like this:
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 090c:1000 Silicon Motion, Inc. - Taiwan (formerly Feiya Technology Corp.) 64MB QDI U2 DISK
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0e8d:1956 MediaTek Inc.
The DVD drive seems to be the last entry.
I'm trying to do this with growisofs:
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/bus/usb/001/005=/data/path/to/iso/file/DVD.iso
Output:
Executing 'builtin_dd if=/data/path/to/iso/file/DVD.iso of=/dev/bus/usb/001/005 obs=32k seek=0'
:-( write failed: Invalid argument
I guess somethings wrong with the path I put in for the DVD drive (/dev/bus/usb/001/005). Any takes on constructing the correct path here?
Thanks in advance!

- Did you use df to determine the mount point of the DVD burner?

Nope.
But trying df gives the following result:

Does not give me the USB DVD drive though ?!? At this moment, there is no blank disc in the drive. Does that make a difference?

Any takes on how to get the mount point then?
Thanks.- http://www.linuxnix.com/2012/09/how-to- ... linux.html
You need to mount it, and then use the mount point (\dev\something) to access it (read or write). Not \dev\bus\xxx - Thanks
But I do not seem to get it. According to the post you are referring to, I should have a /dev/dvd-rw file (or something similar). I don't:root@PIPPERNASV3:/dev# ls

Am I missing something?
Maybe it might be because the Samsung USB drive actually is a BD drive as well? It DOES have the ability to write DVD's... - I think the issue is that udev isn't properly installing the device. I don't know how to fix that though.

:cry:
Any idea as to who might be able to help me out? It would be an awesome feature!- Someone with more linux expertise than I have - mdgm, chirpa, skywalker, certainly there are others here. Make sure you have full backups as you move forward.
