I have this same problem with DVD+RW disks. I am using Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-15, 64bit, Brasero 2.28.2.

When I blank a disk that was recorded by a DVD video recorder I am not able to access the disk as a normal user. The disk doesn't show up on the desktop and Brasero doesn't see it. If I open Brasero with "gksudo brasero" the disk is accessible and recordable.

Note: I had problems with disks having restrictive permissions set by the DVD video recorder, to get the disks to work I edited my fstab file to mount the disk as:

/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 users,noauto,uid=0,gid=46,mode=0777,dmode=0777,nosuid,noexec 0 0 (see Bug #10550)

I have no idea what "Depencies.txt", "ProcMaps.txt", "Proctatus.txt" & "XsessionErrors.txt"" mean. Do I have to do something with them?

that sound like a problem with your permissions rather than a bug in brasero, did you burn the disc using sudo as well?

  Hi Pedro. I had the opportunity to test brasero using sudo. I placed a cd-rw burned, long time ago, with a windows program. It didn't appear on my CD/DVD unit and brasero didn't detect either so, I started brasero as sudo and there was my cd. I could erase and burn again with my favourites mp3. Why any times have I got troubles with permissions and not always?

I have the same problem with DVD+RW and Brasero on Ubuntu 9.10. I remember having the same problem on Ubuntu 8.04, but I was able to use the CD/DVD Creator then to bypass Brasero. In Ubuntu 9.10, however, CD/DVD Creator uses Brasero to blank DVD+-RW, so I have no way to avoid this problem.
