I was looking for an article/blog which gave a bit more info, that I had read some time ago that backed up my understanding the limitations of the various formats and useful hardware details... and finally found it...and remembered to bookmark it this time :-) One of those Doh! moments as of course it is written by the author of growisofs... http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ It also includes info on DVD-R. Dont know whether it will help OP's problem but it is a useful resource.... - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
