i installed the lame package, and found the mp3 encoding/decoding package and installed that as well. However, when i tried to burn a cd, i got some weird error. i went through all the setting and made sure it would buffer right, toned down the burning speed to 8x from 24x. tried again and got this error:

reading through the bug reporting part, i realized that only pertains to DVD burning so i didn't worry about it. any tips though?
