Does anyone has experince with Nero for Linux or using still, please? I am thinking to install it and buy it if works under FreeBSD.
I was K3b user but with KDE 4 and two years waiting (who knows how long more) for the 2.0 version is a little to long.

Thanks in advance.
 
I studied the documentation for
mkisofs cdecord growisofs burncd
and I found those apps very powerful and useful.
Do not bother about Nero.

I am burning from console now but for me is faster if I am using K3b for example (burning music cd from five different cd's and from each one chose just two or three songs).
Thanks.
 
Well, I think a little different. The above-mentioned k3b has DEPENDENCIES:
-kde ports, which have THEIR OWN dependencies.
-cdrtools dvd+rw-tools!
What will you do in case you find that a lot of kdespecific ports
are outdated? It will take you half a day to reinstall everything.
My policy is to install as few ports as possible, so that I bother less
with portupgrade.
And, I hate to see that stupid Linux penguin, when k3b runs.

I agree with you but if I installed K3b 1.05 than I will installed also half of KDE3 which I don't wanted. If I am going to install from
http://miwi.bsdcrew.de/2010/02/cft-k...0-for-freebsd/
I don't know about dependencies nothing yet. What if it depend on KDE 4.4?
If Nero woks and it works NOW, why not?
 
If you already have KDE 4.4 installed, then just install k3b-kde4. Why bother with trying to get a linux app running, when you can use a native app?

Problem is because I have instaled KDE 4.3.5 from ports and I don't want to install from area 51 or waiting for KDE 4.5. Because that was my question about Nero.
Thanks.
 
Then use the KDE3 version of K3b until the KDE4 version is merged into the ports tree. :)

There's really no comparison between Nero and K3b.

And, you need to pull in all the Linux compat ports to get the Linux version of Nero working, which is actually a lot heavier than just the kdelibs3 dependency for K3b.

I had a problem with Nero for Linux. I solved a problem that I installed on my wife computer a Linux and K3b for KDE 4 works perfect for me same as Nero but I prefer K3b, my wife Nero :). I don't know what is a K3b future on FreeBSD.
 
When i started unix, i started with ubuntu for about ~2 weeks. I found nero for linux (.deb) with his serial key from a torrent and i used it 2-3 times. Well i prefer xfburn. Is GUI, free and very easy :)
There are so much / good dvd burners and is not worth to buy nero!
If you use KDE, K3b do the job and i think much better than nero.

I agree that is K3b better than Nero but for FreeBSD if you use KDE 4 is a problem. There are no K3b for KDE 4 but if you install K3b for KDE 3 than you need kdelibs for KDE3 and QT3 and problem is that some programs, for example KOffice for KDE 4 doesn't compile if you have installed QT3. And deinstalling and reinstalling is not for me. Sorry. On my wife computer works Arch Linux and everything is perfect.

Why you are not trying xfburn?
I like it. Easy to use just to do his job :)

Why? Because I use KDE 4. I did try Xfce once and I didn't like it.

K3B 1.90 (RC of K3K for KDE4) is available in the area51 ports tree, and should hit the real ports tree fairly soon. K3B 2.0 has been released, although it's not yet in area51.

1.90 works fairly well. Some glitches now and then, but they can be worked around.

However, K3B from KDE3 works extremely well in KDE4.

Yes, I know that K3b 2.0 was released about three weeks ago because I have it and use it on Arch Linux.
Why they will ports version 1.9 (which RC?) if is the final 2.0 out? Unusual IMO.
I know that K3b works fine on KDE 4 and I described why I don't want to mess KDE 4 with KDE 3 and than deinstall and reinstall... It is the easy way to install Linux and it works.
 
1.90 has been available in the area51 tree for a couple months now. They haven't upgraded to 2.0 yet ... it's only been available for a few weeks. Give them time to work out all the issues. :)

I don't push no one nowhere. I just know that 1.90 is very buggy and it is waste of time to put in ports. Just my opinion.
