Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnomebaker

When I tried to copy and audio-cd that has some scratches on it, the process takes about 3 hours to get to track 13, 8 hours to get to track 22 and finally it never finishes, but gets stuck on track 22 (the CD has 25 tracks).

Debugging: I ran Gnomebaker with option "--trace-on" and it seems to use the command:
icedax -x cddb=1 speed=52 -B -g -Q -paranoia -D/dev/hdc -Owav /tmp/GnomeBaker-otto/gbtrack

Problem: the reading of the audio CD is too paranoid.

Solution: when Gnomebaker detects that the reading of an audio CD takes way too long (maybe more than two hours), it should display an dialog to the user like "GnomeBaker has detected that the audio-CD you try to copy is defected and cannot be copied without errors. Would you like to continue anyway?". If the user selects "yes", GnomeBaker should copy the CD without the paranoid-option.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta or later?

During the weekend, I ripped the rest of my CD collection (about 60
CD's). I didn't notice this particluar issue. However I don't remember
what disc and what computer I used when I wrote this original bug
report. So I can't say for sure that the issue is fixed, since I can't
repeat the situation using the original CD and computer any more
 - sorry.
