Is there any way to change nautilus-cd-burner's default temp directory location? It's set to /tmp by default, no? I get the following message whenever I try to copy files to burn:/// greater than the space left on my /tmp partition. However, I can burn ISOs fine which are much larger than my /tmp directory which is baffling..
"Not enough space to store CD image"
Any info appreciated, thanks.

Nautilus reads an existing iso and writes it to the CD. No temp space is needed.
However, when burning files to CD using burn:/// it creates the filesystem image first and that is stored in /tmp. Thus you need adequate free space in /tmp to hold the amount required for the CD being created. I usually have at least a gb in /tmp so space is not an issue for me.

Ok, I realized after I sent my least mail that ISO burning doesn't need to be copied before burning. As for burning general files, does anyone no why there's no configuration for changing this temp location? Sounds like an RFE to me. If it's hard-coded into the source, where would one look to change it? I had a quick peruse through the source but not being a great programmer, I didn't get too far.
Thanks, Matt
