Thank you for your bug report. Just a couple questions. How are you trying to write a directory to a disk? Are you using a specific package? How could we reproduce this bug. Why do you believe the problem is with nautilus? Thanks again.

This worked with a 50M group of files. Same type DVD+R and same drive that failed with a 1.2G group of files.

1. Insert a new, blank DVD+R into the drive
2. Click Ok. Open CD/DVD Creator in the popup
3. Places->Home folder
4. Drag the "Documents" icon into the CD/DVD Creator - File Browser
5. Click Write to Disc in the CD/DVD Creator - File Browser
6. Click Write in the Write to Disc popup
7. When the error popup appears, Help->Report a Problem before closing
    the popup

The "Documents" directory contains some 1.2G
If I select a directory with 50M, it works.

This is related to size or directory structure.

What else can I do?
