Re: Brasero problem

2011-06-16 Thread jonathan
I had a problem with Brasero today, I created a data project it created the iso file, then when it tried to write the cd it quickly went to 100% apparently succeeding. when looking at the actual cd can see that only a tiny amount of data has been written, and it cannot be read by the computer.

Sorry about that i think it was my mistake, i think it was allready a broken cd, and it was set to just create the iso image. i got confussed, i though it was creating the cd but it was just creating the iso image. On Thu, 2011-06-16 at 14:42 +0100, jonathan wrote: I had a problem with Brasero
