Hi Ayan,

thank you for your support!

I've written to you in order to let you know of other tests I've done
following some hints from Luis Medinas <email address hidden>. I'm
writing the results down here - I hope they're useful.

Best regards, and let me know if I can help you somehow,
Nico

**********************************************************

On my updated Ubuntu 11.10 32 bit:

1) In dconf-editor I've changed:

apps - brasero -plugin

growisofs priority to 50 (before it was 0)
wodim priority to -50 (before it was 0)

-->> same problem of unreadable DVD without any error from the program.

2) setting

growisofs priority to -50
wodim priority to 50

gives a visual error around 60% of the process : stderr: wodim: Cannot
fixate disk.

3) I've tried to set all the flags there:

dao-flag + immed-flag + raw-flag

-->> same problem of unreadable DVD without any error from the program.

4) This is not so clear to me... I had a look in the Software Center
but I cannot find anything ready to install.
Googling around I've found that in a PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/cdrtools
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cdrecord cdda2wav mkisofs
+ reboot

The installed cdrecord is now 3.0.0. I cannot find any cdrecord entry
in dconf-editor.
I tried with the normal settings, but:

-->> same problem of unreadable DVD without any error from the program.
