Hi guys, I'm suddenly getting failures when trying to write to DVD. The discs are Verbatim DVD+R - same as always. Trying to write a DVD .ISO to disc, K3B shows this in the debug output:

Weird thing is, it does actually write to the disc - the first couple of MB at least. If I put the disc in afterwards, it's got the correct label and table of contents. The rewritable discs I have (DVD+RW) work just fine, and the Verbatim discs work just fine when I use an external USB dvd writer. Is this just a media incompatibility or is my drive going bad?
