    [PLASMA 5] Can't read a CD burned in Windows

    Hi,
    I have a problem reading some CD's burned in Windows in Kubuntu 20.04.

    If I put the CD in a PC with Xubuntu 18.04, it reads fine with Nautilus.
    If I put the CD in a PC with Kubuntu 18.04 or KDE Neon, I can't read the CD, the information I get is that the CD is empty and to use K3B to burn it.

    However, I can mount the CD in command line and access all information without any problem.

    Is this a plasma Problem ?

    Thank you.

    With the CD out, open konsole and enter "dmesg"

    Observe the output. Then inset the CD, what a little bit, then enter "dmesg" again and port what has appeared because of the insertion.

    When you say "I can't read the CD" do you mean Dolphin won't open it or what? What kind of CD is it - data, music, multimedia, etc.?

      Hi and thank you for your answer.

      The only difference of dmesg output after insert de cd-r is this line: [ 129.234615] sr0: detected capacity change from 1073741312 to 89264128

      Plasma "Device notifier" message says it is a blank CD-R, to copy it with k3b. It's a data CD.

      If I manually mount the CD with mount /dev/sr0 /mnt then I can see all files in it including with dolphin.
