Is OS X, where does Disc Burner store the temporary image files that it creates prior to burning a data CD?

i'm guessing in /tmp/<UID>

but you could find out thusly:

start a burn

then, in terminal:

sudo find / -type f -amin 1 -print

this will find files accessed since a minute ago; this may produce a lot depending on what's going on.

one of these entries should be the disk burn image


the find is going to want to use a lot of cpu cycles, so you might want to burn at a lower speed to prevent a coaster, or just burn a small session, but not so small that the temp space disappears before the find finds it, right?
