This all is related to my previous messages(same topic aka. same thread)
from Sep 29.

As you recommended I changed my usage of growisofs/genisoimage into
mkisofs/cdrecord.

The minfo command gives me:

# cdrecord -minfo dev=1000,1,0

When I write the DVD I get no failure messages in dmesg nor on terminal.  If its
a problem of the drive I would exchange it, but I don't have instant access to
another drive.
