Before starting the burning process, it is possible to change some of the properties for the burning device that will be used.
- Section Burning speed:
-
From the drop-down list, select the burning speed. For the best value, check the CD/DVD case.
Burning a disc with a higher speed than supported could create an unreadable disc. Use lower burning speeds to reduce the chance of this happening.
- Section Options:
-
-
-
Burn the image directly without saving it to disc
-
Select this option if you want to burn the image directly onto the media, without saving it to the hard disk and without creating an image file.
-
- Use burnproof (decrease the risk of failure)
-
Select this option to prevent the buffer underrun (or buffer underflow) effect. This is when the computer is not fast enough delivering data to the burning device for the selected burning speed.
If a buffer underrun takes place, the burned disc could be unreadable.
-
- Simulate the burning
-
Select this option to simulate the burning process; no real burn is performed. If this operation is successful, Brasero will actually burn the disc after pausing for 10 seconds. During this pause it will show a dialogue in which you can cancel the actual burning. This is useful for testing, if you are having problems burning discs.
-
- Eject after burning
-
Select this option to eject the media in the burning device once the burning process has completed.
- Section Temporary files:
-
From the drop-down list, select the directory to use for storing the temporary files created for the burning process.
The default directory is /tmp.
If you start the burning process without a CD or DVD in the burning device, Brasero will create a image file on the hard disk that you can later burn.
- Section Select a disc to write to:
-
From this drop-down list you can only select File image.
- Section Label of the disc:
-
Type the name you want to give to the disc once burned.
- Section Disc options:
-
-
-
Increase compatibility with Windows systems
-
Select this option if you intend the disc to be used on computers running Windows. Files on the disc will be checked to ensure that their filenames do not contain characters which are invalid on Windows.
Click on Properties to open the Disc image file properties dialogue. In the Name text box, type the name of the image file, from the Image type drop-down list select the type of image to use.
Once done, click Apply.
