Always a good question. Not all distros behave the same.

I know that dynebolic ships with this app, and 64Studio will be adding it soon as well. For a pure burning app, I would use k3b. It is straightforward and reliable. It can author some types of media disks. The little video editing that I do I use other apps. Generally there is more than one program to perform a given task. Try out the alternatives to see which ones work best for you.
