Description of problem: I was writing a 2,39 GB iso on a DVD-R disc. (iso is MSW7proSP1, SHA1 checked OK before writing) I have selected default fully automatic, plus verify. It stopped at 96% writing (according to k3b window) with error message "Allvarligt fel under inspelning: Ogiltigt argument" I translate: "Serious error during recording: Illegal argument" But real result is: 1) It did eject the tray 2) k3b log show no error in writing. (no error at all, but also nothing abut attempting to verify) 3) # sha1sum /dev/sr0 give the correct checksum. -Which reveal another bug: it assumes the error is write error, but write was OK. (so here really are two bugs) Normally it ejects the disc and immediately pulls it in again to continue with the verify pass. This have worked before on cauldron, exact same machine, some time in august. I believe the error is that it now fail to give a today correct command for the eject+pull in.

Assigning to the KDE maintainers. Last time I burnt a DVD, ± 17 days ago, with non-tainted k3b, there were no such problems. But then it was a Mageia iso I burnt, not an MS one :-)

Just as an aside, I use k3b to burn ISOs regularly, and while I have seen the eject-and-reload behavior in the distant past, I haven't seen it lately - verify just starts reading the already-loaded disk. Also, when done, k3b ejects the disk with no error. So this is likely specific to your drive.
