Upstream marked the bug as duplicate of http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170807 where they stated they are not interested to do that because recording a CD over network is usually not a good idea.

It tries temp_iso_dir, if it fails it tries /tmp, then ~ -- Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/43736 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sorry - perhaps it should use temp_iso_dir instead of /tmp. -- Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/43736 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Could we cache the iso locally if the user had sufficient space? Perhaps a message box saying Burning a disc over a network can cause problems when the network cannot keep up with your writer. Would you like to copy the disc image to your computer before you burn it? We could offer the user a Yes/No/Cancel. - Yes would copy it to /tmp and start the burn; - No would try to burn it over the network; and - Cancel would cancel. -- Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/43736 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 43736] Re: Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares
Sadly, you probably want to copy the ISO to your computer temporarily in order to burn the CD. Otherwise, you will be constantly starving your CD-burner's I/O buffer. To compare, Microsoft Windows XP has this exact behaviour when burning CDs from across the network share. It seems quite sane of it to do this. -- Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/43736 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 43736] Re: Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares
Hmmm while that may be true on a slow network, this UI bug is still a bug -- the user is given no indication why the behavior would be different. My network must be better than yours, I burn ISO's from shared drives all the time on Windows (successfully) ;-) Now that I look into it more, I also see that the Open Archive and Extract Here context items are also missing. Those come from File Roller. The network shares don't seem well integrated yet, even though they've been part of gnome-vfs and nautilus for many versions now. Thanks for the feedback, it's awesome that Dapper has so many eyeballs on it. -- Can't burn ISO images on smb network shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/43736 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
