growisofs plugin does not parse growisofs output correctly with large ISOs
Last modified: 2018-09-21 17:37:40 UTC
growisofs outputs status lines like this: 4187815936/14231076864 (29.4%) @1.5x, remaining 25:08 RBU 100.0% UBU 21.2% 10882842624/14231076864 (76.5%) @1.3x, remaining 8:28 RBU 100.0% UBU 100.0% The plugin parses them with this line of code: if (sscanf (line, "%10lld/%lld (%4d.%1d%%) @%2d.%1dx, remaining %*d:%*d", &b_written, &b_total, &perc_1, &perc_2, &speed_1, &speed_2) == 6) { In the format specifier we have "%10lld". When burning an ISO larger than ~9GB, the number of bytes reaches 11 digits (see second example line above), and so those lines are not scanned. This causes the ISO burning dialogue to stop updating until the burn completes.
