Description Claudio Saavedra 2007-01-06 13:34:57 UTC 
At least a gconf setting to allow users to skip the ISO creation and burn directly would be nice. I personally don't have right now enough space for nautilus-cd-burner to create an ISO, so I'll have to burn a disc directly to the drive but using wodim in the cli.

I've confirmed this on Ubuntu 7.10 using nautilus-cd-burner 2.20.0.

Not only that, but the error message that comes up when it fails to burn because there's not enough diskspace is very unclear. It simply says something like 'There's not enough space for image on device'. It required a google search to understand what had gone wrong, before that I was pulling my hair out since it clearly implies that the CD you're burning to hasn't got room.

Expected behaviour would be a clear message, with an option to burn the cd on-the-fly.

This has also been reported in Ubuntu's bugtracker https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus-cd-burner/+bug/30495.

This one is very similar to 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363352
Could one take those two together?

nautilus-cd-burner has been replaced by Brasero in the GNOME 2.26 release. If your bug still applies to Brasero, please feel free to re-open the bug, and reassign it to brasero itself.
