Bug#998718: Brasero fails (on Testing) burning an ISO image on a CD-RW

[Mauro Sacchetto]

I smoothly burned the same ISO with Brasero to a DVD + RW, and the media 
was recognized immediately.On the other hand, the identification of the 
CD-RW is much slower (apart from the fact that the burn then fails) and 
this suggests that something else "occupies" the disc already, which is 
why Brasero does not find it and considers it unsupported. And let's go 
back to your hypotheses: either there is a perverse interaction between 
a Brasero component and the ASUS burner, or there is something else that 
interferes as soon as the media is inserted and before Brasero takes 
possession of it, which at this point does not manages to do. If there 
is any other test I can do (difficult, after all the ones you have 
done), I am always available. And thanks for your work!
