Ubuntu: Burn DVDs - 3 good programs in comparison
Burning DVDs on Ubuntu is pretty easy. Nevertheless, Ubuntu only has a poor selection of appropriate programs. Depending on what you want to burn, different tools are recommended. Here we show you the three best options in comparison.
Burn DVDs on Ubuntu: Brasero
Brasero was always included in previous versions of Ubuntu, but was replaced by Xfburn. The emphasis is on simple and fast operation, which enables you to create any type of data carrier. Music, films, photos or images are no problem with this. However, Brasero can only be used to write and read CDs and DVDs - not BluRays. However, almost all file formats are supported for these.
Burn DVDs on Ubuntu: K3b
K3b is also a very popular burning program among Ubuntu users. The interface is very intuitive and allows you to burn even Blu-Rays. The special feature of K3b is that it also masters handling rewritable CDs and DVDs. The range of functions is also significantly larger than that of Brasero and Xfburn. After installing K3b you only have to download the German language pack, everything else is self-explanatory.
Burn DVDs on Ubuntu: Xfburn
Standard included in Ubuntu is Xfburn, which is also easy to use. Unfortunately, the range of functions is not too large and is limited to deleting CDs and DVDs and burning files. A big advantage of Xfburn, however, is that the program is very resource-saving. Users who burn a lot but at the same time have little system resources will notice this clearly.
