Cdrecord segfaults with when burning audio CD with many tracks

[David Heath]

Binary package hint: cdrecord

Hi,

I just encountered a problem with cdrecord when trying to burn an audio CD containing 86 tracks. I originally encountered this problem when running via k3b, but the same thing happens when I run this command on the command line:

$ /usr/bin/X11/cdrecord.mmap -v gracetime=2 dev=/dev/hdc speed=12 -raw96r driveropts=burnfree -eject -text -useinfo -audio -shorttrack /tmp/kde-sam/k3bCdCopy0/Track01.wav [...cut out 84 more for legibility...] /tmp/kde-sam/k3bCdCopy0/Track86.wav

Segmentation fault

as you can see the program segfaults without burning anything.

I re-ran the exact same command but with only 1 audio track and it worked OK.

Here's some info on my system:

$ uname -a
Linux crystal 2.6.15-27-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 16 02:13:27 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

Also, I've set cdrecord to be suid root.

I imagine I can work around this by making an ISO image, so I wouldn't classify this as a 'major' problem, but all the same I thought I'd report it .. less technical users might not understand how to work around it.

Thanks for a great distro!

You are not using cdrecord but a fork.

Your problem is unknown with the original software.

I encourage you to first upgrade to a recent original:

http://cdrecord.berlios.de/

[Reinhard Tartler (siretart)]

reassigning to right package.

Is this bug still present on Hardy or Intrepid?
