Description Alex Forencich 2016-01-10 23:18:13 UTC

When performing a disk to disk copy (not creating an intermediate iso file), k3b hangs at the end of the operation.  htop reports growisofs consuming 100% of one CPU core.  Drive appears to be locked (no response to eject button press) but the activity light does not light.  No change for several minutes.  Cancel button responded, but did not cancel the operation, even after waiting several minutes.  Ended up unplugging the drive.  Result is a bad disk.  Tried twice with same result.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open k3b, run disk-to-disk copy.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Hang immediately before completion of write operation.  Result is a bad disk.  

Expected Results:  
Write operation completes successfully.  

Using a Lite-ON DVD-RW drive over USB 2 and a Rosewill BD-RW drive over USB 3.

Hi Alex,

Please try k3b master https://github.com/KDE/k3b if still failed to disk-to-disk copy, please let me know, thanks a lot!

BTW: I use CDEmu cdemu create-blank --writer-id=WRITER-ISO --medium-type=dvd+r 0 ~/virt.iso and burn ArchLinux.iso via K3B, it just like disk-to-disk copy ;-)

Regards,
Leslie Zhai
