My $.02, I have never had an issue with K3B...I burn mostly iso 
images ..no on the fly stuff.

It does semm that media and burners can have issues..I replaced my dvd 
burner recently, I was getting eratic performance..not recognizing some 
media. I really like Pioneer, I bought their bluray player, nice..I use 
the cli to create and manage bluray stuff.

A positive report :-)

ps, I also use cdrtools from Schilly, compile them from source, K3B 
recognizes and uses them first. This was for bluray support..Debian 
Wheezy & TDE work fine as is.
