   Put in **another** blank CD - told it to create an audio cd....waited a
couple of minutes while the cpu was at 75%...but nothing happened. Ran
Serpentine, click write to disc....nothing.
Ran Serpentine from a terminal. See below



frank at dapper:~$ serpentine

(serpentine:5249): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 
Trying to dispose element capsfilter1, but it is not in the NULL state.
You need to explicitly set elements to the NULL state before
dropping the final reference, to allow them to clean up.

That explains that. Now what does the error message, and 75% cpu usage
mean ???
