12. Creating a CD or DVD

If your system has a CD or DVD read/write drive, you can use the Nautilus file manager to burn CDs and DVDs.

  1. Click Computer+More Applications+Multimedia+GNOME CD/DVD Creator, or insert a blank disc and click Make Data CD/DVD or Make Audio CD/DVD.

  2. Copy the files you want to put on the CD or DVD into the Nautilus CD/DVD Creator window.

  3. Click Write to Disc.

  4. Modify information in the Write to Disc dialog box or accept the defaults, then click Write.

    The files are burned to the disc. This could take a few minutes, depending on the amount of data being burned and the speed of your burner.

You can also use the Banshee music player to burn audio and MP3 CDs.
