Package: brasero Version: 3.12.2-4 Severity: normal I tried to create an audio CD from a set of MP3 files, using Brasero's default options. Everything appears OK, including correct reporting of how much free space will remain on the disc (which may be significant for another bug I'm about to report), until a dialog appears saying "Burning audio CD" ... "Starting to record". This is suspect, because it appears before Brasero could have had enough time to decode the MP3s. After a few seconds it freezes, without using significant CPU, and has to be killed.
Brasero is able to create a valid cue/bin image from the files, which works after burning with cdrdao, but Brasero can't actually burn this image itself. The symptoms are somewhat different, so I'll report that as a separate bug. My drive is a SATA DVD-RAM burner branded LG, which Brasero identifies as HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH22NS70. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.14.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages brasero depends on: ii brasero-common 3.12.2-4 ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-base 1.12.4-1 ii gvfs 1.34.1-2 ii libbrasero-media3-1 3.12.2-4 ii libc6 2.25-5 ii libcairo2 1.15.8-3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.36.11-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.54.2-4 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0 1.12.4-1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.12.4-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.22.26-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.40.14-1 ii libtotem-plparser18 3.26.0-2 ii libtracker-sparql-2.0-0 2.0.2-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-5.2 Versions of packages brasero recommends: ii brasero-cdrkit 3.12.2-4 ii nautilus-extension-brasero 3.12.2-4 ii yelp 3.26.0-2 Versions of packages brasero suggests: pn libdvdcss2 <none> ii tracker 2.0.2-1 pn vcdimager <none> -- no debconf information
