This bug has been reported months ago and nothing happened since. I'd like to stress that Brasero is rubbish unless it JUST WORKS. I have just made a few shiny coasters on a few PCs with Ubuntu (3 of them actually) as I couldn't believe this could be a software fault... No one releases burning software that is not capable of doing its main goal -- burning discs! Why adding this functionality when it fails on every PC?
BTW, not sure if the disc writing facility integrated with Nautilus is also backed up by Brasero but that also failed for me... All the coasters are not recognized by the DVD reader on any PC (also checked with Windows)... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to brasero in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/774203 Title: Brasero makes coasters when using the Burn Directly To Disk option Status in A disc burning application for gnome 2: New Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: brasero If I try creating a CD by adding files in Brasero then buring directly to disk (using defaults all the way through) brasero creates coasters every time. If I add files, then build an ISO, then burn the ISO instead, Brasero seems to work fine. but so far, I've tried 5 times on three different machines and each time, Brasero made a nice plastic coaster instead of a usable CD or DVD. When I use an ISO image instead, Brasero successfully burns a useful disk ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: brasero 2.32.1-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42-generic 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Apr 30 11:21:39 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: brasero UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/brasero/+bug/774203/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
