Thanks.
It might be because the SD runs not as root (remember, it's the SD that invokes growisofs, not the DIR!). You should thus check the user the SD runs as first. Have you tried running the growisofs command manually (possibly substituting something useful for the part file? Also, you can turn on debug logging for the SD to get more detailed information on what is actually happening. Then, you can try to invoke the dvd-handler script from the shell and see how that behaves. And it might help you more to post these questions to -devel, as that is where the people actually working on the dvd writing exchange their ideas. and bug reports. and patches. and success stories. and so on :-) I cc'ed bacula-devel...
