What the...?

I have a new MBP 17" and I have an AVI file that I imported into Toast and burned (actually, I'm still burning) it to a DVD (4.7 single layer) using the internal "Super" (cough, cough) drive. It's been more than three hours and it's still burning. What gives?!

Is this because the drive is slow or because the Mac is slow?

On my XP system, this would have been done over an hour ago. At least an hour ago.

Sometimes, I think Toast is slow for encoding. I would use ffmpegX and make a DVD image, then a straight burning on Toast.

Hmmm. You might be right. It looks like Toast takes forever to encode. I thought it was burning... but it was encoding. It is just NOW burning at 3x.
