Will do later.

Well, I'm a thorough guy ;-) If I do losetup, luskOpen, mount before copying
files, I do umount, luksClose, losetup afterwards as well.

Exactly.

It tries for all remaining folders, all of them immediately fail because of
disk full and then it waits for input at step 4, i.e. no automatic cleaning up
but if I continue (what I do) it will do the cleanup before burning.

Do I understand correctly, you say that this Pioneer drive doesn't work well
with Verbatim BD-RE, i.e. their rewriteable BDs. Since I only use BD-R, it
doesn't matter for me and my use case, but thank you nevertheless.

For backup reasons, I use each BD disc once, no overwriting, no multi-session,
just write and forget (OK, I should have tested them for readability
afterwards, not just randomly but all of them - lesson learned) ;-)
