This bug has been reported months ago and nothing happened since. I'd
like to stress that Brasero is rubbish unless it JUST WORKS. I have just
made a few shiny coasters on a few PCs with Ubuntu (3 of them actually)
as I couldn't believe this could be a software fault... No one releases
burning software that is not capable of doing its main goal -- burning
discs! Why adding this functionality when it fails on every PC?

BTW, not sure if the disc writing facility integrated with Nautilus is
also backed up by Brasero but that also failed for me... All the
coasters are not recognized by the DVD reader on any PC (also checked
with Windows)...

Title:
  Brasero makes coasters when using the Burn Directly To Disk option

Status in A disc burning application for gnome 2:
  New
Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: brasero

  If I try creating a CD by adding files in Brasero then buring directly
  to disk (using defaults all the way through) brasero creates coasters
  every time.

  If I add files, then build an ISO, then burn the ISO instead, Brasero
  seems to work fine.

  but so far, I've tried 5 times on three different machines and each
  time, Brasero made a nice plastic coaster instead of a usable CD or
  DVD.

  When I use an ISO image instead, Brasero successfully burns a useful
  disk
