Why isn't Brasero working properly?

Asked by Melinda

When ever I attempt to burn, copy a CD, this error message comes out below. I also don't know how to install what it's telling me to install manually. Thanks!

brasero wants to install a file
The following file is required:
/usr/bin/cdda2wav
Do you want to search for this now?

Please install the following manually and try again:

cdda2wav (application)

toc2cue (application)

cdrdao (application)

toc2cue (application)

cdrdao (application).

To install those programs you have many ways.
One is opening the Ubuntu Software Center and using the search box with those names and selecting install.

Another possible way is opening Synaptic Package Manager (in the System - Administration menu) and using the search also for those names.

Other is running this command in the Terminal (Programs - Accesories - Terminal)

sudo apt-get install cdda2wav toc2cue cdrdao toc2cue cdrdao

Then type your password and answer yes when it asks for confirmation that you are going to install programs.

Those are missing plugins which obviously need to be installed for your purpose.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/brasero

Although some plugins mentioned should already be included in main package.

I think toc2cue is not in its own package, so ommit it. Run this:

sudo apt-get install cdda2wav cdrdao

Found a little clarification from Mandriva about changed package names.

Okay, had same problem, ran "sudo apt-get install cdda2wav cdrdao" as mentioned above, and after that uninstalled and reinstalled Brasero. Works fine now.

Can you help with this problem?
