[Bug 658004] Re: brasero claims dvd image is too large for disc

 

bug #897550 seems similar, the details from comment #8 seems to
indicator a by one block error though, and bug #897550 suggests there is
a base 2,base 10 units mismatch in the computation, so they might be
different issues

** Changed in: brasero (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged

** Summary changed:

- brasero claims dvd image is too large for disc
+ brasero dvd capacity estimation is broken

Title:
  brasero dvd capacity estimation is broken

Status in A disc burning application for gnome 2:
  New
Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: brasero

  ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso live env.
  GNOME 2.32
  brasero 2.32.0-0ubuntu2
  nautilus 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1

  Brasero claims an iso file is too large for the disc.
  The inserted disc is a blanked DVD+RW.
  The file is 4,700,372,992 bytes big, which is the official capacity of DVD+RW discs (as per wikipedia and other sources).

  What I did:
   - insert a DVD+RW with content
   - cp /dev/sr0 dvd.iso
   - check dvd.iso size to be 4,700,372,992 bytes
   - right click dvd.iso and select Write to Disc...

  Result:
  The brasero/nautilus dialog claims: The data size is too large for the disc even with the overburn option.
