Hi, I'm trying to write double layer DVDs on my TS-L632C DVD burner. It has always handled single layer DVDs fine and this is the first time I have a problem. What I get is this...

Can anybody tell me what most likely the problem is here? Is it the burner, the medium or just configuration that I could change? It's a bit annoying to have a burner that's supposed to do double layer but doesn't do it... :( Cheers, Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to cdwrite-requ...@other.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
