Error message follows...

"Unable to fixate this disk cdrecord has no permission to open the device You may use k3bsetup to solve this problem"

This occurs at the end of the burning process. It seems that it has finished but that it is "closing" doesn't get anywhere for a few minutes then gives up and spits out this message.

I'm experimenting here, wasting blank DVDRs trying to figure out what format works on my dvd player.

I didn't run into this error until I tried to burn a avi/divx.

I'm using ubuntu 12.04. TIA Mike
