Bug Description

Binary package hint: brasero

I have a default user called "defaultUser".

I have another user called "anotherUser". Once in a while there are files here that I want to burn that are owned by anotherUser.

I start brasero with defaultUser. brasero's burn list is empty. I add a file "blah" owned by anotherUser that is flagged read-only. No problem to add "blah" to brasero's burn list.

BUG: I change my mind. I don't want that file "blah" so I attempt to move it to the trash or press the delete key from within the brasero burn list. To my surprise, I can't.

I tried changing the original blah file's ownership to default user and then deleting from the brasero burn list. It didn't remove it from the brasero burn list. That didn't work either. The only way I know to see the brasero burn list to be cleared is if I restart the computer which isn't ideal.

FEATURE REQUEST: Please add a feature to clear the brasero burn list no matter what the ownership/permissions for files are in the brasero burn list.

Thank you for considering my request. Keep up the awesome work.

I'm sorry. I have not placed myself in a situation similar to that one
to repeat that bug. However, I'm having a hell of a time trying to work
with .dmg files from brasero. Anything past 4.4GB on my dvd burner and
that is a .dmg file does not work. There are very few working tools to
burn dual-layer dvd's using a .dmg file as a source instead of a .iso.
A .dmg file is a MAC OS X-based image. I know it's perhaps not the
right place to voice that particular bug, but it's brasero related.
Cheers and thanks for asking. Brasero is awesome apart from that.
Hats off! :)
