1) yes
2)
_a) create a new project;
_b) data project;
_c) add "VIDEO_TS", "AUDIO_TS" ( i know that it`s wrong but the "new video disc" option doesn`t work (I can add files to the project, but the option "Burn" is not active) );
_d)
1.1 - when i move files like: 1.txt, 2.conf, etc. .to the "VIDEO_TS" folder - burning process is ok and files don`t delete;
1.2 - but when i move files like: VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB, ...etc. to "VIDEO_TS" - burning proces is ok, but folders on my PC`s hard drive become empty!

I`ve checked that couple of times - same result. =(
PS. I was burning typical CD (i had enough space in it)

Oh my god!

Now brasero has deleted my files twice! Of course I thought I did something wrong the first time, but the second try also made my files disappear ON MY HARD DRIVE.

(Also, when brasero is checking port, it's always closed, even if I forwarded it. This worked earlier.)

Still reproducible on Jaunty 9.04. Never gets past 'normalize' without disabling the normalize plugin.

!!! Deleted all my masters thesis files, when i was making back up on CD.
There was something wrong with the files. I believe it was erroneous file name for one of the files.
Some app had written it out as windows path. like ".\images\sample\test.bmp"
None of the files have left!!!

P.S. I cant find any log files for it. Where are they located?
P.P.S. Also before i've found that brasero is very unstable. Renaming folder inside project, media file preview or many other basic actions cause it to crash.

I tried to reproduce the error on 10.04. Currently brasero simply didn't burn hidden files when a folder with such files is imported in project.
All files in folder seem to be intact and no burn error was produced, but ".\adfasdf\fasdfasdf\sadfafsd.xxx" named files are not on the CD.
