Package: wodim
Version: 9:1.1.2-1
Severity: important
Neither DVD nor CD writing is writing useable discs. The writing goes
OK then it gives an error during fixating. Initial writing was done
from Nautilus (which uses wodim -doa ). So I tried using wodim
directly to get some feedback on what 'the error' was.
I am getting a Floating POint Exception. These tests were done with
CDs but I suspect the same error is occurring with DVDs. Any
suggestions?
The disks are PNY technologies and have worked fine in the past with
cdrecord in sarge. This machine has just recently been upgraded to
pre-etch so this is probably the first time with wodim.
