Use Brasero to Burn CD/DVD in Ubuntu Linux

CD/DVD burning has been made very easy with the help of Brasero which comes by default in latest Ubuntu releases. It is a well known CD and DVD writing (‘burning’) application which is famous for its simple interface.

You can launch it from Applications > Sounds & Videos > Brasero Disc Burning. It allows for editing of the disc contents and can easily remove, rename and move files and folder. There are five types of projects which you can create in it. Audio Project is used to create audio CD/DVD that can be playable on any computer, Video Projects creates video CD/DVD, Burn Image is used to burn any existing image to CD, Disc Copy let you copy contents of one disk to another, and Data Project creates a data CD/DVD, with any type of files you want.

    My computer is equipped with two CD/DVD/RW drives.
    I'd like to make a direct copy from one disk on one drive to the other.
    I can't find the way to get Brasero to give me that option, or even recognize the
    writeable drive when it's been inserted. It keeps insisting on writing to an
    Image File in my home directory called Brasero.toc
    It says “Please Insert a recordable CD or DVD if you don't want to write to an image file.” but when I insert the blank disk in the other drive, Brasero doesn't seem to recognize that I've done so.
    Is there a step I'm missing?
    Thanks in advance.
