Favorite CD-DVD burning software (on linux) ?

[djoole]

Hi,

To day i tried to burn my first DVD, with the Cd burning tool of Nautilus. It sucks, you can't remove files when you put them in the DVD structure.

Which software would you advise me, according i pretty liked Nero under windows?

K3b

K3b is probably the best, but since I use a GTK window manager, I want a GTK CD-Burning app, so I use gToaster or gCombust.

Is there any trouble with using K3B if i use GNOME?

There is nothing wrong with K3b (or any KDE program for that matter) in GNOME. Some people (myself included) like to keep a consistent desktop by using only GTK 2 or GNOME 2 apps.

Since there are no really good GNOME CD burning frontends, I have accustomed myself to 'cdrecord' on the command line. It is very powerful!

Honestly, all k3b, xcdroast, gToaster, gCombust, etc. are, are front ends to cdrecord, cdrdao, etc. So, you still are using the command line tools, you just get a GUI that puts the command together, gives you a way to drag and drop a compilation, and gives you a nice progress bar.

I prefer cd-record.
