Hi Bill,
Thanks for the quick response - I did try to format with dvd+rw tools but also got a respnse that the media was not recordable. AFAIK it should not be required.
I usually use K3B for all my CD and DVD recording needs - it works nicely, even under GNOME (I don't use KDE).
I've never had a problem like the one you describe, but I've upgraded to each new CentOS release fairly quickly, so I'm on 5.2, and that might be better.
The one problem I did have with a "new" DVD burner was that it would only write at 2.47x at the fastest, and it was supposed to be a 20x drive. The manufacturer suggested I RMA it, which I will if I ever get around to taking it out and putting in a (different, known good) one.
I also have mplayer/mencoder installed (and vobcopy and a few others), so I don't know if any of them might be involved peripherally, dragging in a more recent module from rpmforge, but I'm thinking you could try K3B and not lose anything if it works.
One question to Chris - did you click on the status bar where you need to change the disk type?
