[Bug 875841] Re: Brasero cannot burn CD anymore - empty disc is shown with 5.8MB free space

 

Some more stuff (screnshot) :
- my CD-R (Lyreco, 700MB) is detected as an "empty CD-R with 737Mo free space"
- if I select an .iso which is 729.1Mo (Oneiric for eg), Brasero tells me that the CD-R has 7,9Mo free space (737 - 729.1 = 7.9)
- id I select an .iso which is 737.5Mo (Precise alpha 1), Brasero tells me that the CD-R is not big enough (737 - 737.5 < 0)

I think Brasero does recognise my CD-R correctly, but the information
presented is not correct : I haven't burnt anything yet, so Brasero
should not act as if the .iso was already on the CD-R !

I understand this approach when you burn data : you simply want to know how much space left you will have once burnt. 
But for an .iso I just don't get it...

Title:
  Brasero cannot burn CD anymore - empty disc is shown with 5.8MB free
  space

Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Since my update (fresh install!) to Ubuntu Oneiric, Brasero does not work anymore.
  I wanted to burn the image of Ubuntu Oneiric, 64bit - but either the dialog shows a free space of a few MB for a completely new CD-R OR when I start the system, insert the disc again, it seems to work and shows 730MB free, but crashes immediately when selecting the image and the drive.

  Bad!!!!!!!

  How am I supposed to work with that???
