No Drive found (thanks Cpt. Obvious, I have no optical drive here). You may at least try creating an ISO image file instead of burning. Choose "New Data Composition", click the "+ Add" button, choose some file by single click (double click crashes my local Xfburn), click the "Add" button at the lower left, click "Proceed to Burn" at the lower left, check "Only create ISO" and choose a file name for the ISO image file. There is a software emulator for some combinations of optical drives and media types: http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/about It is quite a poor surrogate to a real DVD or BD drive, but at least the current bug carer of K3B uses it with some success. > 2. More concerning: > Failed to initialize gstreamer transcoder: An error occurred setting > gstreamer up for transcoding > (falling back to basic implementation) In https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?id=102 i see the advise to do sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly and a comment saying that installing of "qtstreamer-plugins, gstreamer1.0-libav, libgstreamer-perl, ruby-clutter-gstreamer" did the trick, too. So it seems to be about finding the packages which contain the desired software. Looking at the dependencies list of https://packages.debian.org/oldstable/gstreamer0.10-plugins-good https://packages.debian.org/oldstable/gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly i'd say that this might become a lengthy adventure, if not these lines in 0003-gnu-Add-xfburn.patch already pull in most of it: + ("gstreamer" ,gstreamer) + ("gst-plugins-base" ,gst-plugins-base) gstreamer should not be necessary for the tasks of "New Data Composition", "Burn Image", and "Blank Disc". I expect no need for it in the task of "Audio CD" if the input files are already converted to .wav with the properties "uncompressed headerless PCM, 44100 Hz, 16 bit, stereo". Have a nice day :) Thomas
