Hi,

i am the upstream programmer of libisofs and libburn but not
directly involved in Brasero.

It is not clear to me whether libisofs was involved with the Brasero
run. Did that "PPA" disable libisofs ? Does burning MP3 create audio
CDs for old CD players ? (In that case libisofs would hardly be involved.)

Whatever, most likely this report is not about the 50 percent problem,
which started bug/780117.
It seems rather to be the other bug class, where Brasero finishes
without complaint and the medium is unreadable. See also
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=617409

This seems to happen mostly with CDs, not with DVD. As with the
Debian bug report, i would rather expect a problem between drive
and medium and possibly the write type SAO (in contrast to TAO).

If only there was not the statement in bug/780117 that images which
were stored on hard disk can later be burned to CD successfully.
(Is this really true in the case of comment #63 ?)

The 50 percent bug seems to be much rarer than the problem with
unreadable CDs after an appearingly successful burn run.
It might be that only this one can be avoided by intermediately
storing the image on hard disk.

It would be interesting to see the error log of such a failed
K3B run.

K3B prefers to use mkisofs resp. genisoimage and cdrecord resp. wodim,
whereas xfburn uses libisofs and libburn.


Have a nice day :)
