This is not correct.....
Mkisofs honors the disk layout defined by the IFO file.

You are missunderstanding things:
The track recording direction is defined by the pressed pree-groove and cannot
be changed.
If you are copying DVDs, you need to call cdrecord -v -atip or similar in order
to retrieve the layerbreak value of the original disk. This value needs to be
given with the driveropts=layerbreak=xxx option when writing DVD+R/DL.
If someone can tell me how to read the layerbreak value from the IFO file, this
coule be done automatically....
