Hi, the error message rather stems from genisoimage (or mkisofs) which works underneath K3B and also underneath growisofs if used like in the man page example
growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /some/files The number 65535 is a limit of the "Path Table", an antique structure which records all directories and which hardly any reader interprets. Nevertheless it restricts the number of parent directories to the range of 0 to 65535, because any entry in this table has to refer to its boss by a 16 bit number. The number of directories is allowed to exceed this range. But one would have to sort apart those directories which have directories as children (i.e. which must be mentioned as parents in the table). I had a look into libisofs, where i am currently the developer. The path table code is inherited from my predecessor. It does not take care to keep the 16 bit numbers in path table from rolling over. (Maybe it should do ...) So you may try to use xorrisofs out of package xorriso. K3B might be unwilling to use it, if you do not name it "mkisofs" or "genisoimage". Or you may try GUI program Xfburn instead of K3B. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to k3b in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1523326 Title: K3B (growisofs) too many directories To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3b/+bug/1523326/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
