Description Aleksey Kontsevich 2005-12-06 18:37:38 UTC 
Version:           0.12.8 (using KDE 3.4.2-1.2.kde, Fedora)
Compiler:          Target: athlon-redhat-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4

The same problem in all k3b versions over years: 
- k3b fails to check successfully written data when option "Verify written data" is on. Writing Data CD Dialog shows "Could not find file ..." message

- Window users see russian filenames like "________ ________" 

I have russian UTF8 locale. As I know CD filenames standard claims utf8 characters. So I don't realize even how this error could happen in UTF8 locale. May be you should add "utf-8" in "Force input charset" option or smth like this? 

The same problems descriptions you can find here:

>then why did you open yet another bug report for this???

I knew about 83315 during bug report and I did not want to abort my report. Also to show you how many people want this bug to be fixed and to remind about my past reports. And becasue problem not only with "Verifying written data" and also with international character filenames in Windows.

>eventually

I understand that k3b is free development but when will come this "eventually"? :) Its about one and a half year since http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83315 bug.
Comment 3 Sebastian Trueg 2005-12-06 20:35:47 UTC 
I am only one man on all this and verification does not interest me that much. 
That's why I keep moving this bug down the todo list... but I will do it 
soon. I promise. :) please close the duplicate bug reports.

It is sadly to hear such things about the most popular CD/DVD burning application in Linux 

>but I will do it soon. I promise. :) 

I trust You :)

>please close the duplicate bug reports.
