Title:
  DVD writing takes more than an hour with any DVD, set to any speed in
  both Brasero and Gnomebaker

Status in “cdrkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
      It is a painful task to burn DVDs on Hardy. I first burnt a DVD at
  maximum speed in Brasero. The content size was around 4.1GiB. It took
  nearly 75 minutes to burn the DVD, but it was successful. Then I
  thought there must be some problems with Brasero and burnt another DVD
  with Gnomebaker, again the result it same. Its painful to see both of
  these applications use 1.14GiB(100%) of my RAM which I see when I run
  top when burning DVDs. This makes it impossible to use any other
  application. Even chatting in Pidgin becomes impossible. Still more
  paining is that Brasero uses 100% CPU most of the time.

       Hardy is an LTS and shouldn't have shipped with such a critical
  bug. I tried with both Moserbaer Pro DVD and a cheap DVD. Results are
  same. It is so sad that I have to install Winblow$ now on my machine
  to use Nero or I should install another distro just for burning DVDs.
  I dont want to go out of Ubuntu. Please help me.

  Thanks in advance,
