Brasero ; slow burning speed fix.

Brasero is a cd/dvd writing application for the Gnome desktop manager. Its advantages are ease of use, a lot of burning options and support for plugins!

Actually, my fav burner in linux is k3b. But, k3b crash in my Fedora 12. So I switch to brasero for awhile.



As you can see the pic, the speed is so damn slow. Although I select burn speed to the "Max", it doesn't work.

Here is the fix:

1.gconf-editor
2.head to apps > brasero > config > priority
3.change wodim-burn from "0" to "-1" ; to disable it
3.change growisofs-burn from "0" to "1"
4.manuall set the burn speed. Instead of "Max", use 4x,8x etc
