There is no such thing as 1xDVD+R, it's either 2.4x or 4x. > READ DVD STRUCTURE[#0h]: > Media Book Type: 01h, DVD-ROM book [revision 1] > Legacy lead-out at: 741295*2KB=1518172160 Yes, this is most compatible recording.

Both are apparently pure CD-ROM units, *not* capable of DVD playback!!! The fact that you see "ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive" does *not* actually mean that unit is capable of DVD playback. "ATAPI Optical Storage drive" would probably be more appropriate message, as the kernel doesn't really care to tell apart CD-ROM from DVD-ROM units, there is no need for that [from kernel viewpoint].
