Hello Kenny, thanks for your questions!
To answer these correctly I just tried to burn again. This time k3b did _not_ reject the +DVD. I'm really glad about that - but I am also sorry not to be able to help with this strange bug. The problem disappeared! I will write the most I can in case that it could be helpful for others: 1) Sorry for not saying this before: I use Edgy and upgraded from KDE 3.5.5. to 3.5.6. 2) After the upgrade I got this strange message while trying to burn my same normal +DVDs (before that I never received that message). I didn't get this in English - and can only give you a remembered version of the message. It told me that k3b would not be able to burn the DVD because "+-DVDs" would be necessary. I was confused. Then I tried +DVDs and -DVDs - with the same result. I skipped the work for one day. Updated the system, locked off, rebooted ... tried again. As I wrote above and as you can see: The burner calls itself a "+-DVD- burner". I thought of a bug in the recognition of the burner in k3b. Before writing the first error-report I tried to burn again. The same message appeared but I insisted to burn. Knowing that I always used to burn with this kind of +DVDs. K3b did it's job. The DVD is readable and does work. 3) The error message now disappeared. I am sorry not to be able to say how.
