New problem: After using xorriso successfully for several burns, now it works no longer, but fails with "Invalid address" almost immediately after formatting a new blank BD-R disc.

I tried two times with similar results. I updated firmware of BDR-205 to version 1.04, power cycled drive, then tried again with the same result. Then out of exasperation I tried growisofs -Z /dev/sr1 -rJ -V"etc" . and it gives me no problems except for the usual error in subject: [...] 0.04% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 18:45:54 2010 0.09% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 19:04:38 2010 0.13% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 18:58:23 2010 /dev/sr1: pre-formatting blank BD-R for 24.8GB... /dev/sr1: "Current Write Speed" is 10.2x4390KBps. 0.18% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 21:53:18 2010 0.22% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 21:30:45 2010 0.27% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 21:09:34 2010 0.31% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 20:59:43 2010 0.36% done, estimate finish Tue Feb 16 20:52:23 2010 [...] The only thing that I have done since last successful xorriso BD-R burn is burned a DVD+R-DL with wodim (failed) then with growisofs (success). But it would seem that having power cycled the drive should make that issue irrelevant. Here is the dvd+rw-mediainfo from one failed disc, are these discs dead now?
