I just downloaded ubuntu to my Dell laptop and I'm about 6 hrs new to this system. On my girlfriends windows 7 laptop I burnt the movie frozen to a dvd-rw and put it in the xbox, ps4, and a portable dvd player but none of them worked.   Since I am new to this ubuntu I am wondering what type of programs will I need and how can burn working movies to a dvd-rw that works in most movie players like xbox, ps4, or most dvd players.

I have several .dvd files which were created using . To export the videos from OpenShot, I used the DV-NTSC widescreen and DV-PAL Widescreen property.  Can anyone tell me how I can burn these *.dvd files into a DVD that can be played with my external Sony CD/DVD 5.1 Player which is connected to a TV?

I have downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 and burned the ISO but it will not boot.   I discarded problems with the ISO, as I've downloaded from the official website with no errors, and burned it with no errors. I discarded problems with the burning, as looks like it was recorded with no errors here and later in another computer. I discarded problems with my DVD reader as other cds boots fine.   I'm currently using Ubuntu 9.10, I know I can upgrade via internet, but I have this same problem with my Windows XP cd, so I really would like to discover what's going on here.. My Ubuntu 9.10 cd boots just right, but the new one not.  What else can be? Or what more precise tests can I make to discover where's the problem?   --More info  What happens when I try to boot with the Ubuntu 10.10 cd is that it behaves like there's no bootable cd in the drive. It just don't find the boot on the cd, and start the HD system.  My notebook is an Amazon PC Intel Celeron 1.5 with 2Gb memory, a DVD-RW driver, HD samsung with 260GB.  --update  If you put the media agains the light and see the other side, does that means that it's a bad quality dvd media? (it's a Philips)

This is the English version (including later edits) of .  I use Xubuntu 16.04.6 LTS, currently with Linux kernel 4.4.0-145-generic x86_64.   Xfburn has version 0.5.4 for Xfce 4.12.  I use a Lenovo W530 laptop, the CD/DVD-RW-drive in it is shown as MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ8C0. Xfburn shows all possible check marks for it except for "write blue ray disks".  I am using blanks of type Verbatim CD-R 700 MB 52x.  The FIFO-buffer of Xfburn is set to the maximum possible, which is 16384 kB on this installation.  I always get error messages of this type     Failed: Burn Run failed.   Usage of the FIFO-buffer shows 99%, for the device buffer 100% usage is shown.  In the configuration check marks were set for:    Eject CD,   Simulate,   Burn Free,  Stream Recording.   There was no checkmark at "only create ISO".   (I also have tried to write with a reduced speed, but that also did not work.)  What‘s wrong here?  Edits: As suggested by a comment, I start xfburn from the command line to show its error messages:  $ xfburn ** Message: 18:09:48.866: Using UDEV ** Message: 18:09:52.110: Using gstreamer transcoder.  ** (xfburn:12230): WARNING **: 18:12:50.707: [FATAL] 131357: SCSI error on write(32,16): [5 30 05] Illegal request. Cannot write medium, incompatible format. (0)  ** (xfburn:12230): WARNING **: 18:12:50.707: [FATAL] 131339: Burn run failed (0)   Of course, the blank used in this trial gets lost: If I re-insert the disk drawer, many CD access operations happen. One has to be very patient to let them all finish. This time the file system on the CD is not mounted after the disk is inserted and all CD operations have come to an end. I remember that Thunar showed me the content of the disk with its directory structure and file names last night. When I tried to open one of the files, another almost endless sequence of CD operations took place. But this was without a reboot happened after writing the CD. Today after rebooting and re-inserting this CD and after sudo blkid I see a line   /dev/sr0: UUID="2019-04-08-18-12-20-00" LABEL="Bilder 2019-03-1" TYPE="iso9660"   with the disk label I had given to this disk. Then I tested  $ badblocks -v /dev/sr0 Es wird von Block 0 bis 233879 geprüft Es wird nach defekten Blöcken gsucht (Nur-Lesen-Modus):60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 ...   The number of futile accesses goes on at least to 151 (I stopped it there) but surprisingly the number of read head movements between consecutive block numbers varies: sometimes it is one such noise from one number to the next one, sometimes there are several such movements.  I wonder about TYPE="iso9660" because the file names to be written to the CD were long ones, they did not follow the 8.3 name scheme known from the stone age of DOS! If I remember right, one needs something like  to break out of the 8.3 name cage.  a) Is it possible to write CDs with xfburn with long filenames?  b) Is the presence of files with long file names or containing non-ASCII characters an explanation for this failure?  c) If the answer to a) is Yes: What do I have to do in order to write such files to a CD?  d) If there is an answer to c): Isn't it a bug of xfburn that it does not provide an error message before it actually tries to burn such files and destroys the CD blank in doing so?

I have been trying to install a fresh copy of Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bit version) on my desktop PC from a USB memory stick, but I'm experiencing a problem.  Each time I attempt an install I received an  "[Errno 5] Input/output error", followed by the following message before the installer exits:  "The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk: [Errno 5] Input/output error This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment."  In order to attempt to remedy this I have so far tried installing Ubuntu to two different hard disks, one of which is brand new, and each time I have received the same error "Errno 5" message. I have also tried installing from 3 different USB sticks using torrent and Ubuntu site iso images burned using both Unetbootin and Startup Disk Creator.  Again, these measures have proved fruitless.  The installation process varies depending of the iso I use, with the Ubuntu download page iso exiting at an earlier stage compared to the torrented iso.  The later torrent iso returns an error and exits when I am prompted for my name, computer's ID and password.  I've never experienced anything like this when installing previous versions of Ubuntu.  I'm absolutely stumped!  Does anyone have any more ideas?

When I download the ISO file, my system shows the file as a zip file and not as an ISO. I have tried to burn the file as an image to a DVD but my laptop will not bootup from the CD.  Setting in the BIOS are ok. So I guess the problem is with the ISO file or the way I burned the CD.  I have follwed the instructions on the site for downloading and burning an ISO image to CD. And I guess that my problem is with the file association in windows Vista.  Any ideas and suggestions are welcome  Thanks

How do I burn the latest 12.10 790 MB ISO to a CD?  My burning software says insert a disk but 700 MB CD's are too small. I tried a DVD and that didn't work either.

I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 recently, and am looking to burn some .iso files. In Windows 7, there was a default program that I could use. I have dug around a bit, but cannot find one in Windows 10 so far. Although, a bunch of search functionality seems to be disabled on my machine, so I may just be searching incorrectly.  Is there a disc image burning program bundled in Windows 10 like there was in Windows 7?  Image of what I see:

Today I downloaded Ubuntu for my laptop. It runs great from a bootable USB, but when I tried to install it, I got the following error message: The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:  [Errno 5] Input/output error  This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard    disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower   speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often    available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk   is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler   environment.     I tried everything to install it on my laptop including redownloading the Ubuntu ISO image, but nothing worked.

I've got a DVD that I've burnt from an MSDN ISO. I'm not entirely sure if its Windows 7 64bit or 32bit.   How can I be sure?

I'm looking to download and install the latest version of Ubuntu to replace the current version of Windows I had pre-installed on my machine when bought it.   I have some really neat features on the machine that I really am hoping will still work when I move over to Ubuntu.  Can someone please confirm if the below will still work and, if not, how I can get them to work:   The USB ports on my machine The ethernet or Network work port on the machine The HDMI output on the machine and finally, the built in webcam   Thanks Sam

I didn't had this problem before, recently I bought a SSD and installed Windows 7 x64 on it,  and now the DVD sometimes spins without reason, it has no CD in it (this makes a bit of a lag).  EDIT:  it usually spins when I start windows explorer, or some other action that probably involves exploring windows folders (starting winamp also could spin it)  saving a file (in ms word ctrl+s) can also spin it

I wonder if someone can help me? I am fairly new to trying to actually understand and use computers myself rather than just buying whatever Windows/Mac wants me to! You will get a giggle from my flawed attempts anyway :-)  I would like to start using Ubuntu on my PC, just got a new harddrive and did have a borrowed windows 7 disk as was planning to temporarily install it so i could get ubuntu. However I didn't have high enough spec hardware for win 7 (I think it is due to only 1gb ram, i do have 64 bit technology and a 1tb harddrive). I am quite happy to install 32 bit ubuntu and hear it is easier the use than 64 anyway.  So I have one other rubbish mini laptop (windows xp) which i am trying to use to get ubuntu onto a usb (laptop has no cd drive) so i can install it on the pc. First tried just downloading ubuntu 13.04 desktop onto a usb and trying to boot the pc from it which gave the message 'no operating system'. Then I tried this to create a bootable usb which sounded promising:  . However then it starting asking for my saucy desktop iso in order to install it onto the usb stick, can't really manage to find out what a saucy desktopp iso is, maybe a mirror image of an operating system, no idea why i would need that.  So in short, I'm lost. All I can think of is getting windows xp somewhere so i can get my pc to work and install ubuntu from the internet on that, or going to a friends house in the hope that creating a bootable cd is easier than creating a usb.  Sorry for my general ineptness and hope someone can help!

I just downloaded the Ubuntu 13.04 OS(32-bit) desktop version. It is a Zip file, i extracted the contents of it and burned it into DVD. But i cannot see the iso file, and how to make it bootable. Please help with this because i really want to try it out. And i am using Windows 7 right now.

Does anyone know an easy way to write files to a DVD from the command line. I've found a program that does it for CDs, and another that writes .ISO images to DVD.  I want to use it to write files to a backup DVD overnight.

I just completed my first Blender job. Without thinking, I deleted what I thought was a superfluous .dvd file.   After realizing I rendered my file in black and white instead of RBG, I tried to render my job again but I just get a the warning, "Could not open file for writing." I do have a saved, .blend file. Is it possible to generate another mpeg file from this?

I was offered a couple of DVDs from abroad that cannot be played on my player due to region filtering.  So I tried k9copy to copy the DVD (it removes the region automatically). But for some reasons the copy does not work well (followed the instructions  but the generated ISO file does not work / not even in media player - additionally there are many bugs in k9copy 2.3.5 (latest from Ubuntu) showing that it is not a reliable software, at least not on Gnome...).  My question is simple: how to copy a DVD on Ubuntu, the copy/ISO being as close to the original, but without the region code.
