Description David Eriksson 2007-02-01 21:42:19 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I had the problem that I added the files I wanted to burn to the CD/DVD Creator Folder, clicked "Write to Disk", pressed "Write" and... nothing happened!

After some investigation I discovered that I had less space available on my one and only disk partition than the size of the files I wanted to burn. After freeing up some space, the "Write" button gave me a "creating disk image" window and then it started burning as it should.

I think that nautilus-cd-burner should give feedback to the user when it can't create a disk image due to lack of disk space.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Fill the disk so that only 500 megabytes is available
2. Put more than 500 megabytes of data in the "CD/DVD Creator Folder"
3. Try to write it to a blank CD

Actual results:
Nothing at all.

Expected results:
A suitable error message should be displayed.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
