I use the following for media, the price is in the affordable range for me. http://www.supermediastore.com/category/u/blank-recordable-blu-ray-bd-r-re-disc-discs-media k3b in Trinity, v1.05, does not support bluray.....even with cdrecord from jorg schilling. I installed k3b from Debian, v 2.02, it works fine..to many depends but o'well. I started out with the following procedure, like the way I can loop mount a udf file and mange the contents, I like the independance of the cli. #create udf file system truncate --size=25GB /pub/bluray.udf mkudffs /pub/bluray.udf #mount udf filsystem, copy files sudo mount -oloop,rw /pub/mybr.udf /mnt/bluray sudo chown <owner.user> /mnt/bluray #burn image growisofs -speed=6 -Z /dev/dvd=/pub/bluray.udf 'truncate' is part of the 'coreutils' package, also libudf0 , udftools. -- Peace, Greg
