Mkisofs - seek error on old image



Hi all

mkisofs 2.01.01a37 (compiled from source)
Cdrecord-ProDVD-ProBD-Clone 2.01.01a37 (compiled from source)
Linux 2.6.24
Plextor PX 810 SA on NVIDIA SATA

I have a DVD-R used to do incremental backups, one session for each day. Sometimes it fails to append new sessions.

So it seems that the media is still appendable.
Next step is ask cdrecord to retrieve msinfo

cdrecord dev=6,0,0 -msinfo -v

Numbers seem correct, coherent with dvd+rw-mediainfo

Last step fails:

mkisofs -C 1273136,1284368 -M /dev/sr0 -R -J /amps/backups/flexbackup/ -v -o test.iso

Setting input-charset to 'ISO-8859-15' from locale.
DEBUG: startsec 1273136 startbyte 2607382528
mkisofs: Invalid argument. Seek error on old image

The DEBUG line is a printf I just added.
Media problem? It has never happened with first or second session, always on 4th or later.

Tnx for any help.
