brasero failed to burn cause drive was faster than resource (NAS - SMB)

[benste]

Binary package hint: brasero

I would expect Brasero to automaticly slow down the drive if the resource is busy.

Guess the same could happen if reading from ext USB HDD or something equal.

In my (worst) case I tried to burn form a Samba share on a NAS connected by wifi.

network said 200 kbit/s reading
brasero burned up to 10x

Strange thing was that usually nautilus can read from the NAS with arround 1,5 Mbit/s

Your problem is a result from using the unmaintained fork wodim
instead of the original software..

Just upgrade to the original software from:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/

http://cdrecord.berlios.de/

and your problem will go away.

before I'll try this, could you explain me how the defualt one could be removed withouht installing this case realted ?
--> I'm using a nearly default Ubuntu 9.10 install

The fork is using a non-cooperative packaging. It may be that
you need to remove the files "wodim", "genisoimage" and similar
by hand and after installing the original software create symlinks
with the names from the fork that point to the original software.

For a long term solution, you could ask the ubuntu team why ubuntu
still distributes an unmaintained and even undistributable fork (that is
is conflict with GPL and Copyright law) instead of just puiblishing the
well maintained original software.

Pedro do you know why ?
