I have a bug similar to this only it is with burning a DVD. Here's what happens:
I have two DVD drives. One is a DVD-RW and the other is just a plain DVD Player. I had a home made video in the plain DVD player which is not encrypted that i wanted to back up to another DVD. So i placed the original copy in the regular DVD player and placed a blank DVD-R in the DVD-RW drive. K3B notices both drives properly. Upon clicking on "Burn" the system attempts to save the original DVD to hard disk through an ISO file. Upon completion of saving the iso file...K3B records the whole process of being 50% complete. The DVD-RW starts blinking and moving indicating that it is burning, but the 50% status bar never progresses. Eventually, the DVD-RW stops blinking, but nothing happens on screen. When i move the K3B window over, it makes that shadow effect and everything turns white and grey indicating that K3b is frozen. I must kill the process to get out of K3B. Two results from this: 1. On one occasions, the DVD-R was never burned and it was still recorded as a blank DVD-R. At this stage, K3B reported it as 50% complete, but the DVD-RW never lit up indicating that it was burning. I also killed the application, but nothing was burned. 2. On another occasion, the DVD-R burned correctly. The DVD-RW drive lit up indicating it was burning. K3B again reported it as 50% complete, but never progressed. I also had to kill the application after the DVD-RW stopped activity. Hopefully this can be resolved.
