[Bug 31709] Re: Brasero, GNOME's burn:/// and K3b slow dvd burn speed

[Greg Eden]

Still an issue with Lucid, still a pain in the butt.

The solution is to use growisofs instead of wodim.

In k3b Settings -> Configure k3b -> Advanced -> Show Advance Gui
elements

Restart k3b

next time when you go to burn something there will be a new menu in the
burn dialog called  "Writing App" , change it from Auto to growisofs and
all of the slowness issues should evaporate.

This has plagued Ubuntu and Debian (and many other distros) users for
four years, time enough for it to be fixed.

Another way is to just select force unsafe operations in Settings ->
Configure k3b -> Advanced -> Force unsafe operations which will override
the error that has been going on for four years, but perhaps leave you
open to other issues. Experiment with whatever media you use first to
make sure it works.

Hopefully this will help some with a workaround.
