DVDs do not support TAO
growisofs only supports packet mode. This is less compatible than the streaming
mode used by cdrecord.
AFAIK, growisofs does not support multi-session but implement a fake...
cdrecord will soon support real multi-session for DVDs.
You _need_ to run mkisofs twice in case you do not create an intermediate file.
