[Bug 319650] [NEW] error when using +add for .wav files on a CD when trying to burn a project

[David Johnston]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: brasero

Hi,
further to details in question: #57949
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+question/57949

brasero 0.8.2 on ubuntu intrepid 8.10 with kernal updated to
2.6.27-9-generic

this bug report is for bug 2 mentioned in question  #57949 
(see bug report Bug #319640: couldnt burn cd when /tmp had 1GB instead of 3GB for the other problem noted in question  #57949) 

I didnt convert the question to a bug in case the question got removed
and made unavailable for reference from the separate bug reports for the
2 different issues noted in that question, and also because the question
has an enhancement suggestion in it too, which would also need to refer
to the question record.

when I clicked on +add when audio cd .wav tracks were selected, I got an
error as per notes in question   #57949

it always gives me the message
"Track 1.wav" can't be handled by gstreamer.
Make sure the appropriate codec is installed.

I have ubuntu intrepid (8.10) installed and have downloaded the
gstreamer packages including the restricted extras for dvd. perhaps
there are similar for cd but couldnt find so far - most searches give
dvd problems and results etc.

I looked in the system log browser but couldnt see any relevant messages
(but may not be looking in the right place).

I checked synaptic package manager and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly is
already installed.

if I try to add .wav tracks direct from the cd the message is displayed
as mentioned, even though rhythmbox can read the tracks and I am
guessing it uses the same common facilities from gstreamer

if rhythmbox can read the .wav files and extract .oga files from them, I
would expect brasero to be able to read them and use them to burn a new
CD with a different combination of tracks.
