Ubuntu 8.04.1, i386, Nautilus 2.22.3 I can reproduce the issue. When I try to write an ISO image to a DVD+RW or DVD-RW and the rewritable disk s not empty, I am informed that disk has to be erased. When I press ERASE button, I get an error after a while that disk cannot be erased. and that is correct, DVD-RW disk has to be formatted...
Nautilus should run format (not erase) for DVD rewritable disks. Or it should offer a FORMAT button for DVD-RW and DVD+RW disks. As a workaround, I run GnomeBaker and format a disk manually from Tools menu. -- Nautilus-cd-burner is unable to blank DVD-RW https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/53962 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
