Bug Description

Binary package hint: brasero

One of the features that makes Brasero so easy to use is that screen it greets you with, in which it asks you which type of disc (data, audio, video, copy disc, save image) you want to work on.

Sadly, Brasero seems to try and use the last open project when you launch it from apps → audio and video → brasero.

For example:

1 - Open apps → audio and video → brasero. You get the project menu.
2 - Click on "video project".
3 - Close Brasero and open it again. You get the project menu again, which is good.

But:

1 - Open apps → audio and video → brasero. You get the project menu.
2 - Click on "video project".
3 - Add a video file to the project.
3 - Close Brasero and open it again. It will use the recent video project, which is bound to confuse users who might want to burn a different project and not know how to do it.

Brasero should ALWAYS default to the project menu when opened, unless called through a specific option (brasero -a to open a new audio project, etc).

I agree with you. Resume from last project is confusing and opening a new project involves unnecessary more clicks. In this current state the Project menu is useless.
