Wow, quick feedback, much appreciated. I installed Brasero from Ayan's PPA on my Precise. I disabled the image checksum plugin and created a data DVD. Direct burn was disabled so I checked it (this is what we are trying to fix right?).
Burn was "successful" as per Brasero (and no log created) but alas the DVD is not recognized when I put it in (and it was my last blank so no more testing for now...). I validated that my DVD bruner was reading other DVDs ok. Anything else I can do (aside telling my buddy to get a flash drive, which would be a good idea anyway ;) )? @Martin: Yes, I understand burning DVDs is not something widely used. Heck I even chose to not have a DVD reader in my latest laptop. But if a feature is availalbe (installed by default) users will expect it to work. In the current situation it would be better to hide the functionnality altogether (at least direct burn). I know this is not easy and it may be simpler to just put the fix in ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to brasero in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/780117 Title: Brasero finishes without error but unusable media [on-the-fly mode] (Ubuntu 11.04 ->12.04) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/brasero/+bug/780117/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
