Description
Please describe the problem: When opening the main Brasero program and burning an audio CD from FLAC files, the resulting CD is not usable.
Specifically, A) it is not recognized by Nautilus (CD drive disappears from Places\Computer) B) does not show up in Rhythmbox. C) cannot be ejected by Nautilus or drive device.
BUT D) Banshee sees it. It has no metadata/CD-Text, but can be played & ejected.
Steps to reproduce:
- Get a blank CD.
- Get FLAC files.
- Open the brasero Main Program.
- Burn the files to disc. Set "eject when finished option" and uncheck "allow more data to be written to disc."
Actual results: Progress bar burns the files (with CD-drive activity) to 100%. Disc does not eject when done. The "Blank CD-R Disc" icon is still present on the desktop. After clicking "done" in Brasero, Brasero still reads it as a blank disc.
If you try to burn again, Brasero will eject the disc and freeze. If you re-insert the disc, you get symptoms A-D in the description above.
Expected results: The GNOME desktop and GNOME programs should be able to read any proper music CD that Brasero creates. It should not be possible to make a CD with GNOME's burner program that GNOME cannot read.
Does this happen every time? So far. I have lost two CDs this way, burning FLAC files.
Other information: This obviously affects many programs; I am not sure whether they are malfunctioning, or if they just merely cannot cope with a CD that was incorrectly burned.
If it is the fault of a poorly burned CD, of course it would be good if Brasero would not do that. (But then again, you would expect the GNOME desktop to have a better user-error interface than merely pretending there is no disc and locking the drive when a bad CD is inserted.)
