[Bug 1599941] [NEW] data disks created with brasero can't be read

[Karl Lindheimer]

Public bug reported:

I recently copied several directories from a hard drive rescued from a
dead computer to my NAS.  I can open all of the files fine in Ubuntu.  I
attempted to use brasero to burn the windows files to a CD and DVD.
Everything went through the proper steps, and I could see a burned area
on the DVD, however when the disk is inserted in Ubuntu or a windows
computer, it appears empty, except for 1 checksum file.  When I used a
working windows computer to burn the data disk, the resulting DVD or CD
can be read fine in Windows computer, or Windows in VirtualBox under
Ubuntu, but not in Ubuntu itself.  This is an insideous bug, because I
attempted to burn several Ubuntu Directories with photos onto a CD using
Brasero, and the CD's were read just fine in Ubuntu.  The windows
program I used to burn the successful disk said that it was using the
Joliet filesystem.
