Hi, Rob Bogus: > However, I used -dvd-compat, not -dvd-video, > if you think that has any chance of helping I'll try that.
I understand -dvd-video is an option of mkisofs which growisofs does forward. It also triggers growisofs option -dvd-compat for the burner part of growisofs. So it would make no difference to -dvd-compat if you burned an already formatted image. Like: growisofs -Z /dev/sr0=my_image_file But if you let growisofs do the mkisofs run growisofs -Z /dev/sr0 my_video_files ... then -dvd-video should yield a different image to be burned on the fly. (See man mkisofs, -dvd-video) Nevertheless if DVD-R work well by the same image formatting, i would not expect that a mkisofs option brings the decisive progress. (On the other hand: the devil is a squirrel) Given yesterday's correction by Andy i re-read http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ Possibly you should read the paragraphs around "dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom -unit+r /dev/scdN" for another experiment proposal.
