Bug#697187: brasero: cannot burn BD

Hi,

I do not use Brasero or other GUI frontends (except my emerging
xorriso-tcltk, which is more a proof-of-concept than an end-user
tool).

This is one of the main reasons why i prefer the command line.
It is usable without importing half a new operating system.
And one can write mails about the actual activities without the
need for sending screenshots or describing a GUI session with all
forth and back.

It is also the reason why a known Brasero bug persisted for two years:
The people who could have fixed it were all on older systems,
and those who had the newer buggy version had no burner experience.
Finally one of the latter found the bad commit by bisection
experiments, and i was able to spot the fault in that code change.

Since then i google daily for "brasero cd dvd" in order to learn
about new problems which give my libraries a bad name.
I should add "bd" now.


Have a nice day :)
