DVD Compatiblity issue



Hello List,

I am rather new to this video DVD type applications.  I have been 
working with DVD+RW for a couple of years for just normal data 
applications.  I burned a udf DVD-R this morning using growisofs, 
and the end of the burning output is below.  Perhaps someone can 
enlighten me on why my older drives mount the media OK but my newer 
drives do not, including the drive that burned the media.  The 
filesystem is a valid DVD mpeg video that does play as designed in 
my DVD player.  Perhaps I should use some more switches on the 
command line when I burn them for compatibility.  

This is also the first time I have seen this behavior.  During my 
learning process of my first DVD creation I burned others before, 
this same blank media, and they worked OK.  I am playing one of 
them now in the HP 300n drive using xine just to make sure.

Ending growisofs output from this morning:
 99.89% done, estimate finish Tue Jan 27 08:33:59 2004
Total translation table size: 0
Total rockridge attributes bytes: 0
Total directory bytes: 4096
Path table size(bytes): 42
Max brk space used 5284

builtin_dd: 2112384*2KB out
/dev/scd1: flushing cache
/dev/scd1: updating RMA
/dev/scd1: closing disc

I used the command line: growisofs -Z /dev/scd1 -dvd-video output

The output from growisofs above appears normal enough.  This DVD 
will play in my normal DVD player.  It will also mount as a UDF 
file system in two of my HP dvd-writer drives, older 100i units.  
The media info below:

As you can tell the media is readable and it will mount.  However, 
if I attempt to mount this media on two other drives, they respond 
with no media loaded.  The media-info below as well:

In this drive the media appears to blank.  And actually this is the 
drive that burned the media to begin with.  It is the only unit I 
have that will burn DVD-R media.

I also have a HP dvd-writer 300n, and it doesn't even know the media 
is in it.  Media-info below again:

:-( no media mounted, exiting...

I did notice from the units that will acknowledge the media; the 
older units identify the "mounted media" as 10h DVD-ROM and the 
Optorite as 11h, DVD-R sequential.  I do not know if this is 
considered normal or not since the HP dvd writers cannot burn DVD-R 
to start with.  But they all should be able to at least read them.

Thank you for your consideration of this perplexing problem, at 
least too me anyway.  The software versions are growisofs 5.16 and 
mkisofs 2.0.3.

James
