Bug Description

Binary package hint: brasero

I was attempting to create an audio CD utilizing Brasero. I received this error message " mp3" is not suitable for audio or video media." after DnD. Further inspection revealed a majority of the plugins are installed just greyed out and unable to be selected. I recall transcode being a default installed plugin in the past and having no issues with it.

I get the same error on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with Brasero 2.30.2. The system was installed just a few days ago from scratch.

I do have gstreamer installed. This was the solution suggested in Question #96269. It did not help.

Rhythmbox 0.12.8 also fails to burn audio CDs from playlists - guess it uses Brasero so this is expected.

I am unable to enable the brasero plugins just like James Schriver 7 months ago. I wonder if there is a work aound?

Just in case this matters, I also have AMD64 architecture:

uname -a
Linux ******** 2.6.32-26-generic #47-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 17 15:58:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I installed 10.04.1 32-bit version and it has the same issue.

uname -a
Linux ******** 2.6.32-26-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 24 09:00:03 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

There is nothing wrong with burning music CDs on both systems using other software. Just the packages provided in the default Ubuntu installation fail.

The Lucid installed is the 64bit version.

Same in 12.04.
Rythmbox is not a workaround as it calls brasero to burn and convert
