Can I suggest that the importance of this bug be set to High (or
whatever, I don't know what the options are). I think it is a serious
bug, because right now the user's audio CD burning experience with a
default install of Ubuntu is likely to be something like:
* Insert blank CD
* Choose burn audi
A further issue with this is that Serpentine makes you choose the disc
capacity in minutes, which makes sense for an audio CD burner, except
that not all blank CDs state their capacity in minutes. Do you know how
many minutes a CD gets per MB by heart? I don't. Perhaps it could
present the options

It's definitely a usability problem, rather than a feature request. It
can be solved either by setting the disc capacity automatically or
reminding the user that they have to do it themselves. In the current
situation, my bet is that most users will fail to set the disc capacity
and will burn sever
Option boxes are used to allow the user to do the task in hand, so it's
the correct widget to display the disc capacity.
Putting the disc capacity size on the preferences dialog rather then
side by side of a visual representation of the disc capacity doesn't
seem to be the most reasonable thing to
If serpentine can be patched so that it does autodetect the disc
capacity, then I suggest moving the disc capacity widget from the front
of the GUI (make it uneditable instead). Because all the user can do by
altering the disc capacity is break it. If it has to be manually
alterable in some cas
I can confirm that serpentine has this behavior and that it is infact
very confusing. The information is given by hal as
volume.disk.capacity. Serpentine should check that value and set the
disk length accordingly. It should probably check this at startup and
listen on dbus for org.freedesktop.H
