Brasero logfile

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 on my Notebook. Today, I tried to create an Audio CD of
a FLAC audio file and its Cue sheet metadata file. But there always appears an
error and the burn process doesn't start at all (see attached logfile).
Don't know what's going wrong...

Regards,
Nameless

Cue sheet

This is the Cue sheet, which I've used.

Thanks for the report.
Unfortunately the problem seems to be that cdrdao does not support your cue file. His/her creator used flac compression (see the name of the file) which is not supported by cdrdao as a format. (btw, surprisingly there is the WAV tag next to it... and that means that cdrdao treats the bin file as if it was a wav file hence for example the crazy start value).
I'll add a way for brasero to catch that sort of errors more appropriately and perhaps implement a way to support transcoding the data from the .bin file.

Comment 3 Philippe Rouquier 2009-11-03 19:06:21 UTC

Of course you could manually transcode your file from flac to wav and retry with brasero.
