IME, it's better to use growisofs than cdrecord for dvd writing. Cdrecord support for dvd writing is somewhat iffy. works like a treat for dvd+rw's - should work with other types as well, but I've only done limited testing -- have had a nec dvd writer for about a month now. I have experienced problems with some types of media -- this 100pk of dvd+r's does not seem to want to work at all with the drive, yet I got at least one or two to work with it, but all the others return a media not formatted or supported error. Despite that, I've got at least one from the pack to work with a brand-new Toshiba dvd recorder I just purchased - even though the product literature claims dvd+r is not supported. I have a feeling they're mislabeled somehow - I can check that with dvd+rw-mediainfo (also part of dvd+rw tools). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
