[Bug 438494] Re: Brasero reports blank CD's free space incorrectly.

 

How would you call this "low importance"? This is the only and default
burning app included with Ubuntu, and the application makes so many
mistakes, that the user can't reasonably be expected to see through
this.

My experience was that the blank CD size was wrong, and I couldn't
select my CD from the drop-down menu. I would click it, but it didn't
show up as the selected CD. So, I got sick of clicking that button and
hit "Burn" instead, and magically it started burning. It burned
everything fine.

Title:
  Brasero reports blank CD's free space incorrectly.

Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: brasero

  I right clicked an ISO in Nautilus, and selected burn to disc. As the
  burning application is Brasero, I would assume the initial dialog
  belongs to it as well. The dialog showed in the 'Select a disc to
  write to' area 'Blank CD-R Disc: 6.9 MB of free space'. Obviously this
  is incorrect.

  It looks like a simple bug in the display code, as the software didn't
  notice, and the ISO burned perfectly. Screenshot is attached.

  Running Karmic circa alpha 5. Upgrading to alpha 6 soon (guess why I'm
  burning the ISO =P ), will report on whether it still exists.
