This is a 'golden oldie', now in 2021... I compiled brasero 3.12.2 and still had the same problem, and I'm not even on Ubuntu!
The DVD had been in use from a previous read (other program), and Brasero was not able to dismount the drive (or even eject the disk, which might have solved the problem too). I suspect that just issuing an umount would solve the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482991 Title: Brasero hangs at "Get Size" process on 64bit Ubuntu 9.1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bug/482991/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
