I also did not claim that k3b will do mircales for me, so the abrasiveness is uncalled for. I am using growisofs, hmm the burner did claim to burn dvd-r and dvd-rw in the item specs or else i never would have bought a dvd-rw. I have read the docs, anyways i bought a dvd+rw so whenever it gets here hopefully things should be better. * Marc Fonvieille (blackend@freebsd.org) wrote: > On Thu, Feb 26, 2004 at 11:48:03PM -0500, Dev Tugnait wrote: > > But dvd+Rw tools does support DVD-R and DVD-RW, why would it really matter as long as my drive supports it?
