I kinda doubt it would be a nibble count, since this would be for creating a player disk.  On a real Apple, are the resulting player disks copyable? (Would think so, to allow them to be backed up.)

It could be trying to write out a volume number, and not getting it read back.  Might be timing, but other tools are able to write disks in the emulator.

Just have to look at the code...
