From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.2) Gecko/20030208 Netscape/7.02 Description of problem: gtoaster somehow passes remarkably bad options to cdrecord, causing the write to fail and the media to be damaged beyond recovery: instant coasters. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtoaster-1.0beta6-4, cdrecord-2.0-6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure gtoaster to create an audio CD. 2. At at least one .wav file to the track editor. 3. Insert blank media into ATAPI/SCSI-emulation CD writer. 4. Start recording. Actual Results: From the client output area in gtoaster: GnomeToaster Recording Terminal Recording 748839168 bytes to CD GnomeToaster is calling the following command: cdrecord dev=0,0,0 speed=16 -audio tsize=51132480 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=76851600 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=66110016 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=39991056 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=56003472 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=44050608 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=82437600 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=42493584 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=35051856 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=48009024 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=33257280 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=26149536 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=36044400 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=35628096 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=38949120 /media/tmp/gtoaster -audio tsize=36679440 /media/tmp/gtoaster Cdrecord 2.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 J�rg Schilling Using libscg version 'schily-0.7' Device type : Removable CD-ROM Version : 0 Response Format: 1 Vendor_info : 'PLEXTOR ' Identifikation : 'CD-R PX-W1610A' Revision : '1.03' Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW.

CD recording process finished. Expected Results: I expected the CD burn to proceed smoothly. No SCSI emulation errors. Additional info: Once gtoaster fails with a particular media, all further attempts with that media will fail, even when cdrecord is invoked directly from the command line. The media has been damaged (CD-R, not CD-RW). Invoking cdrecord on the command line with similar arguments that gtoaster uses (hard to say exactly, as it hides filenames and who knows what else), produces a good CD burn every time. Removing the "tsize" option from the gtoaster recorder preferences allows gtoaster to proceed further (in dummy mode), but cdrecord hangs indefinitely in the fixating stage. Does not happen when invoked from the command line.
