Hi. The burning done by makedvd uses the growisofs command. Since it got to that point using tovid, I believe the problem is an issue using growisofs not tovid, so the report should go to that list or should be asked in a forum for your linux distribution.
cheers, grepper

Sorry for the inconvenience! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been using these blank DVDs just fine for ages so I don't think its a problem with the disk. Maybe the software needs to do retries in the event of an IO error like this.
