Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: brasero
Using an updated hardy (upgraded from gutsy), I wanted to burn a CD of lots of
photos and some videos, organized in many subfolders for a friend of mine.
I tried burning the CD, but it wouldn't work, with brasero giving me an error
when it was about to write the data to the disk.
Brasero said, I should check the CD/DVD.
When I tried the other CD/DVD-writer (external, via USB), it wouldn't work
either.
Neither did changing the target CD solve the problem.
When even burning to an image file (iso) threw the same error, I decided to
have a look into the logs presented with the error.
There, I found the following:
"BraseroGenisoimage stderr: /usr/bin/genisoimage: Volume ID string too long"
... and followed by more "stderr: [...]".
The original Volume ID I had entered was "Bilder 4/2008 von Klaus für Ines",
which is, afaik, the maximum length as restrained by brasero.
After changing the Volume ID to "4/2008 von Klaus für Ines", I could "burn" an
iso file as expected, and I could also after that burn the iso file to the CD.
The md5 check failed:
"BraseroMd5sum setting new checksum (type = 1) f0158a3b01cfa10cb1d56f6a3aa986e3
(c7b2850f2cc2bfa1501a41af19d8a49a before)",
But none of the ~570 photos are broken. There are some short AVIs on the CD
that I didn't check, but I think it would be quite a coincidence if a single
occuring error was in those avi files, (being maybe ~5% of the disk). So I'm
not sure if I can trust brasero here.
