Usually, discs that were put into my DVD-RW drive won't show up in Ubuntu. When they do show up, I try to burn something on them, and it takes forever and is pretty inconsistent.
Here's a video of me burning a DVD ISO.

What is the brand of your blank media and model,age of your dvd drive
Discs - imation 8x 4.7 GB
Burner - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827151136
+r or -r ? Asking because that model has had issues with -r's
ck. hdparm -i /dev/scd0 scd0 = drive in question yours may be different (ck fstab if you don't know)
Your burn speed <1x is so slow hard to believe it's a dma issue
When was the last time you had good burn speeds ie. a dvd5 @ 4x should take about 12 min.

Yes. I am going to go check and see if it works in Windows... as soon as I find an ISO burner for it.Quote:

It's doing it in Windows, too. The write buffer is going from 0% to 100% every other second.
Time for a new drive
