Right. My idea was that this was simply a missing progress bar update or
a rounding error, but looking at the code it does indeed look like the
last block is simply missing and not copied.
I find the progress bare update in /usr/bin/dvdvideo-backup-image:
progress = ProgressMeter(stream, image_length // 512)
[...]
for part in parts_complete:
logging.debug('part: %r', part)
for r in part.dump(media):
count_real = len(r) // 2048
progress.update(count_real // 512)
cur += count_real
image.write(r)
logging.debug('part end, written %d', cur)
The only way this could fail to move to 100% seen to be that the
dump(media) call simply do not return enough bytes to fill
image_length bytes.
But I believe I have never seen a DVD ending up on 100%. Perhaps this
is the way the DVD specification require DVDs to be set up?
