Same issue already reported long ago at: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/brasero-list/2011-July/msg00004.html actors: libisofs and growisofs brasero plugins symptoms: 50% finished at ~49% Looking at the logs and the brasero plugins code, the main suspect most likely hidden at: 1) erroneous read of growisofs std out, wrt written data, and buffer filling, hence a premature leave might occur: plugins/growisofs/burn-growisofs.c static BraseroBurnResult brasero_growisofs_read_stdout (BraseroProcess *process, const gchar *line) { int perc_1, perc_2; int speed_1, speed_2; long long b_written, b_total; /* Newer growisofs version have a different line pattern that shows * drive buffer filling. */ if (sscanf (line, "%10lld/%lld (%4d.%1d%%) @%2d.%1dx, remaining %*d: %*d", &b_written, &b_total, &perc_1, &perc_2, &speed_1, &speed_2) == 6) { BraseroJobAction action; brasero_job_get_action (BRASERO_JOB (process), &action); if (action == BRASERO_JOB_ACTION_ERASE && b_written >= 65536) { /* we nullified 65536 that's enough. A signal SIGTERM * will be sent in process.c. That's not the best way * to do it but it works. */ brasero_job_finished_session (BRASERO_JOB (process)); return BRASERO_BURN_OK; } 2) premature ending of the libisofs thread: static gpointer brasero_libisofs_thread_started (gpointer data) { ... if (brasero_job_get_fd_out (BRASERO_JOB (self), NULL) == BRASERO_BURN_OK) brasero_libisofs_write_image_to_fd_thread (self); ...
