Using K3B to burn a Linux OS image to a DVD-R disc (WinValue from Micro Center) and the first two discs failed, with an invalid argument. The drive appears to work fine and have had no issues with it. Then burned the same image to a DVD+R disc (Magnavox) and it burned successfully. I'm not aware of any major differences between the + and - discs.

Below is the output from K3B when it fails. It has the option to manually input the burn speed, which I input as 2(x), but it continued to burn at 6x, which may be the minimum speed for the drive. It fails almost at the end of the process after the image is burned, it then displays an invalid argument and flushes the cache. This is on Debian bullseye (11).

Two questions:

1. Is it possible that DVD-R discs are not designed for ISO's?
2. Could the WinValue discs be junk? They were purchased 2-3 years ago, so it would be beyond the return period.

TIA.
