Description Pedro Villavicencio 2009-05-13 12:51:21 UTC
this report has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bug/374101

"After defining an audio project with a number of MP3 files, the "BURN" action does nothing.
It says "Normalizing tracks" but nothing actually happens for more than 15 minutes.
The CPU load stays low (should rise because normalisation requires both I/O and CPU resources).
I would expect the project to be burnt onto an audio CD."

"It just stays at "Normalizing Tracks" and nothing happens. If I disable the normalize plugin it burns the cd with no problem."

brasero log:

Any other debug info we could provide? Thanks.
Comment 1 Tobias 2009-05-23 20:55:13 UTC
I can confirm this. It just stays at "Normalizing Tracks" and nothing happens. If I disable the normalize plugin it burns the cd with no problem.
Comment 2 Stéphane Maniaci 2009-05-25 19:20:00 UTC
Can confirm this too on Jaunty uptodate 32 bits.
Comment 3 t borders 2009-06-03 07:25:03 UTC
Same here. The workaround does the job for now but it would be great for new users not to have to do this.
Comment 4 eagleton 2009-06-15 10:18:28 UTC
Confirming for Fedora 11, 32bit
Comment 5 Philippe Rouquier 2009-06-27 13:05:06 UTC
Thanks for the report.

Could you provide me with a log created with "brasero -g --brasero-media-debug > log 2>&1" please? The one attached is only for the media handling library.
However I suspect a problem with a gstreamer plugin since all those distro versions are quite high.
I'll install fedora 11 soon and test that if the new log doesn't help.
Comment 6 Philippe Rouquier 2009-06-29 07:33:50 UTC
Thanks for the report. That should be fixed in 2.26 branch and I port it to master tonight. Now we create a new pipeline for every new track to normalize instead of reusing the old one and it seems to fix the problem.

Comment 9 kimus.linuxus 2013-08-01 19:05:07 UTC
I'm getting this same issue in Ubuntu Linux 13.04 with version 3.6.1 of Brasero. Should I open a new issue? Reopen this?

Several people with the same problem. You can check here also: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bug/374101
Comment 10 kimus.linuxus 2013-08-01 19:10:03 UTC
I found out that Brasero starts normalizing from the second file and then never stops the loop:
