When CD-R (not DVD-R) is inserted, Nautilus burning CD dialog insists to use DVD speeds

[Pēteris Krišjānis]

Binary package hint: nautilus-cd-burner

1. Put in plank DVD-R, start CD/DVD creator, put files in, burn them at DVD speed of your choice
2. Take out freshly burned DVD, put in blank CD-R
3. For example, this time choose ISO to burn. So, pick up some iso file, ubuntu-6.06-desktop-i386.iso for example, choose in right button menu "Burn..." and on with it
4. Expierence DVD speeds to be given (x152, x82, etc.), not CD-R speeds (from x2 to x52)
5. For me, it give burning error when I try to burn disc, using DVD speeds lower one, x31

It wasn't problem some time ago, so it came up recently, with last updates before final 6.06 LTS release

Thanks for your bug. Do you close the dialog before trying to burn the iso? Does it happen only if you record a DVD or can you get it also just by starting the dialog and cancelling the action? What "/usr/share/nautilus-cd-burner/list_cddrives" write when you have the DVD or the CD to the drive?

Answer to your questions:
1. Yes, I try to close and open it again before trying to burn iso. Speeds, however, doesn't change;
2. Now I testing it and it is such way:
  + Restart system;
  + With no disc choose to burn ISO;
  + CD speeds appears;
  + Insert DVD, close "would want to make DVD" dialog, choose to burn ISO;
  + Still CD speeds appears;
3. /usr/share/nautilus-cd-burner/list_cddrives gives me such info:

Thank you, I've forwarded it upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349408

It appears this was fixed in GNOME 2.15.x and Edgy already. (Fix: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=63887&action=view)

[Daniel Holbach (dholbach)]

Can somebody verify?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

marking as fixed, feel free to reopen if you still have the issue with edgy
