I ran across this bug too. Found the same bug at brasero bugzilla: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668405
I tested the latest master version of brasero. This bug is fixed in the master version, you can select a destination / path for the image. I hope a new version of brasero including this fix is released soon :-) This can be marked as resolved, thanks ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #668405 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668405 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to brasero in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921145 Title: Brasero: no way to change default destination when creating disk image Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When burning a project to an image file on disk, there is no way to change default destination path. It is always set to $HOME/brasero.iso for data project, $HOME/brasero.cue for audio project etc. There simply may be no room under user home directory or the user may prefer to change the default destination path for one reason or another. It is pretty standard for an application to allow the user to choose destination for the resulting output. The same applies to the working temporary directory which defaults to /tmp. I do not have enough room in /tmp which is mounted as tmpfs on my system, and have no good reason to grow its size. While default temporary dir can be easily changed using gconf-editor, this is not user friendly. Some sort of preferences dialogue would be useful in this case.
