It is not that simple.
The same burn that failed with growisofs here

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/dvd+rw-
tools/+bug/1113679/comments/13

finishes correctly with cdrecord.

Both burns where done with K3B in the same system. K3b can use any of
growisofs or cdrecord. I used 2 blank BD-R from the same spindle and
burned exacly the same 3 files into them.

I have burned ~ 50 BD-R using K3B with cdrecord and they all burn
flawlessly at 4X (1 GB/s). K3B using growisofs (besides never burning
correctly), burns at 2X (and reports it as 4X) while keeping the
burner's hardware buffer below 50%.

K3B with drecord keeps is at 97+% all the time while burning.

Basically growisofs is useless for BD-R. CDrecord should be the default
or at least an easy to use option. Right now (and since BD-R where
invented) you need to add a PPA and use K3B to actually burn BD-R.

That's all because cdrecord does not automatically format
BD-R before writing. (Neither do libburn based programs
like xfburn, cdrskin, or xorriso.)

You can achieve the same effect with growisofs by option
  -use-the-force-luke=spare:none

In previous versions of K3B there was a menu to set
options for backend programs ... Setup External Programs,
User Parameters.


 Basically growisofs is useless for BD-R.

Ah no. I am a competitor of growisofs, but would not say
that. Actually growisofs has more clue about the MMC
aspects of BD media than cdrecord.

It's just that Andy wanted to be smart with auto-formatting
and regrettably quit maintaining of growisofs before he
could iron out the consequential bugs.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
