Hello -- ran into some unexpected behavior burning files to DVD from the MacOS Finder.  Burning files usually entails inserting the blank disc, dragging the files to the disc, and choosing Burn, all from the Finder.  When these files are dragged from the synchronized Box folder, the Finder completely crashes as soon as the Burn is started. A workaround is to download the files to HDD first and then burn them, but I was wondering if there's a better solution, or a bug fix in the works. MacOS 12.4 (build 21F79). Thanks!
