Since I'm about to retire my old PCI machines and get either a used G4 or a new G5, I'm not spending much time dealing with the DVD problem I wrote about. But I do want to share one interesting bit of info:
When I tried a DVD+R (not DVD-R!) disc with Toast 5.0.1 (and nothing later!), it worked after a fashion! The program saw the disc as a (very large) CD-R disc and was able to write to it as if it were one. The most annoying limitation was that it would finalize the disc even when I clicked on "Write Session", so I could only create one volume (though a rather large one!) on a disc. Also, it would only let me write at "24x" (CD, not DVD) speed or slower, although the drive usually writes CD-R's at 48x. - Aaron P.S.
