Hi ,
it's nice that you get a free box of DVDs, but looking at the output of
your session, could it be that the file you're trying to burn is too
large for a DVD? When I do a dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/hdd for a DVD, I get
something like
Track Size: 2148256*2KB
amongst other information, which seems awfully close to where your error
occurs.
Just a guess...
