I can confirm this for r20065 on 64-bit Ubuntu 8.10 with VDPAU. Very annoying bug. I wasn't burning a disc when Myth was started though. Let me know if you need any additional information.

Please try 00-6276-cdwriter.patch and 00-6276-mythmusic-cddevices.patch. The first adds a defaultCDWriter() function to mythmediamonitor, the second patch removes cdrecord device detection from mythmusic and changes it to use mythmediamonitor instead.

00-6276-mythvideo-dvddevice.patch just changes mythvideo to use mythmediamonitor by default for device detection and is not required to fix this bug but makes things consistent between plugin configurations

OK, most uses of cdrecord are now removed from trunk and 21-fixes. MythMusic still uses it to blank and burn CDs, but that is mostly harmless.
