2045 again... It apparently doesn't affect playback. But on the other
hand why should it, when kernel looks at track information and capacity,
which are perfectly sane:

As we see 2045 even in DAO recording, I'd say it's something fishy with
firmware. Check if vendor has an update. If not (or if it doesn't
resolve the problem) I can't recommend anything else but to stick to DAO
mode for all DVD-RW recordings. You can also try to format for
Restricted Overwrite, it might work properly... Related question is if
DVD-R suffers from same problem... A.
