Since I just learned I can create bootable DVDs, I thought I should backup some files onto DVD and make back up copies of home video DVDs. I had DVDs made from old 8mm family film on each side of our family.<br>
<br>
One set works just fine for watching in kaffeine and duplicating in k3b. A second set of film however does not work in kaffeine and I get errors when trying to duplicate them. Both sets were made from the same vendor, so I do not know what they did differently.<br>
<br>
When I try to watch the second set in kaffeine, I do get the generic menu to play a video, but it will not play. When trying to duplicate the DVD, I get a response that basically the DVD can't be read or is somehow invalid. It plays fine in my regular DVD player (goes straight to video, no menu) so I know it works.<br>
<br>
What are my options for duplicating and possibly watching this set of home videos in Kubuntu? Do I look for other DVD burning software?<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
<br>
