Other Help Topics :: DVD burning with DSL 3.1?

Hi,

First - congrats for the truly beautiful DSL 3.1! It is superb and (so far) seems very stable.

One question though: can I burn DVDs with DSL 3.1? I need to backup data on DVD+R and DVD+RW and I also would like to make backup copies of (commercial) DVDs unto either DVD+R and DVD+RW.

Which application should I use (and/or fetch from the myDSL extensions)?

Many thanks!

Any idea if the stuff in DSL base can do cd's as well? I guess I sort of assumed they did... (cdrecord, etc.) but I'm not really much into the whole dvd phase yet.

As far as I know, burning DVDs requires additional tools not found in the DSL base, but I'm not sure about that. All I really know for sure is that I was not able to burn on DVD with cdrecord. Now that my DVD drive has gone flakey I can't verify.
