Title:
  progress bar does not calculate remaining time/percentage accurately

Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: brasero

  Brasero does not calculate remaining time or percentage properly,
  which is reflected in the progress bar.

  Two situations to fix which may make the estimation more specific:

  1 - Slow start to burn. The slow start to the disc spinning gives an
  inaccurate estimation. For example: 438 minutes remaining, when the
  disc actually took under 15 minutes to burn. The slow start issue
  seems to mean that the time shown to the user is not an average but a
  real-time number. There must be some ways to correct this to that the
  user knows how long they will be waiting before the disc is done.

  2 - Post-burn operations are not included in the % remaining
  estimation. After the burn is complete (or so assumes since it says
  100%) it still needs 1:30 seconds for post-burn operations (Creating
  image checksum). These operations count down by the second, but seem
  to cound a second in 1/3 of a second, meaning it is running 3 times to
  fast. The progress dialog is inaccurate saying it is 100% done while
  it still has a long ways to go. This should be corrected so that these
  tasks are calculated into the remaining time and percentage.
