Brasero CD copy does not preserve CD-TEXT
Last modified: 2010-11-16 18:01:41 UTC
When copying an audio CD with brasero, CD-TEXT is not copied to the new disc, although it is correctly parsed and saved into the .toc file (example attached to downstream bug). As brasero is able to create audio CD's with CD-TEXT included it would be nice if it would support this feature also when doing a copy. Thank you for looking into this!

Hi thanks for the report and sorry for the very late reply. This should be fixed in brasero 2.30 now. I recently changed the policy that governs brasero use of plugins. Until now, brasero used cdrdao by default to copy Audio CDs because it is supposed to copy and most importantly burn CD-TEXT. It turns out its CD-TEXT burning support is not as good as I thought it was. I recently bought a new drive and cdrdao has been unable to write CD-TEXT. So the decision has been taken to lower cdrdao's priority to 0. It means that now other ways cdda/wodim for probably most of the installs will be used to do the job as wodim though questionable in other areas actually can do the job. So by now, if you use the next stable version you should be able to copy CD-TEXT properly.
Hi I'm using brasero 2.32 in ubuntu. But, I'm still experiencing this problem. João
