Bug Description

The files are the album "Requiem for a Dying Star" by EvilWezil. They are in FLAC format as downloaded from Band Camp.
They cause the following brasero-session.log:

These files also cause K3B to crash.
These files play fine from the hard disk in every player I've tried, but that does not let me listen to this album in my car.
I have not been able to find any burning software that can burn these files.

I found this also to be the case in Linux Mint 14

Still a bug in 16.04 based linux mint 18.

i had the same problem, and it was due to the fact that the flac files were not in the right format for an audio cd (16 bits, 44100 hz). this did the trick:

sox in_file.flac -b 16 -r 44100 out_file.flac

a more informative error message would help, though. :)
