Description
Please describe the problem: Insert a CDRW previouly written to.
Try to burn an iso image to the cdrw (options not flagged: simulate, burnproof)
Press "Burn".
Brasero shows screen "Burning Image to CD" reaading also:
Preparing to write ... Estimated remaining time ...{nothing shown} Estimated drive speed ... {nothing shown}
and continues until brasero is killed ("cancel" button appears not to work)
Steps to reproduce: As above.
Actual results: Nothing more than above: the normal blinking light on the drive (Plextor PX-760-A) shows no activity at any point in time.
The proof is on the CDRW: the old contents remain available.
Expected results: Let Brasero determine that the CDRW is full and offer the user the question: This disk is full, do you want to erase it or try another { Or stg to that effect }
Does this happen every time? Yes. At least it does when choosing the project type "Burn image" and also when choosing a previously used image burning project.
Other information: This was found against svn build 1452.
