Symmetry: "Burn image" followed by "disc copy" to iso produces an iso different from the original one.

Binary package hint: brasero

I tried to use dvdisater to secure my backups. It won' work with Brasero because the iso created from a disk is different from the iso burnt onto that disk. The number of sectors differ. This prevent dvdisaster's error correction algorithm from working.

To reproduce: take any iso, burn it, then copy the disk you just burnt to an iso file, and diff them.

Thanks for the report, can you try the same on Natty? Thanks.

I don't have Natty installed; Meerkat was rebooting my laptop every 15 minutes so I feel frisky about upgrading. I'll try.
