I am trying to put the dvd iso image of CentOS-5.4 onto a DVD. I have an LG multi-writer installed. I have used this device on this host to created CDs in the past but this is my first attempt at creating a dvd.
When I put a blank DVD-R media in the drive then I see a desktop icon for "CD-ROM Disc" created. When I open the bittorent folder and click on the iso image "CentOS-5.4-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso" then I am prompted to open the image with "CD/DVD Creator". When I do this then I get a new window opened with the image file in the lower portion and an entry at the top labelled:
CD/DVS Creator Folder and a button labled "Write to Disc"
When I click on write to disc I am prompted to either create from image or create from file. I select image and am propted for the speed. I select maximum possible (the default) and press the write button. I get this error:
Insert a rewritable or blank disc
Please put a disc, with at least 4.3 GiB free, into the drive. The following disc types are supported: DVD+R DL, DVD-RAM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW
I get the same thing if I use a DVD-RAM. What is going on? I have used the same model dvd writer on a MSWindows stations and have created readible dvds therefrom.
Any ideas on how to proceed?

probably not really the solution you were asking for, but you could try with k3b (yum install k3b). I haven't tried it with the C5.4 iso yet but it usually works great for me.

I use k3b also and it works pretty good most of the time. When it doesn't, I use cdrecord from the command line. I've tried the gnome burner, but could never figure out how to get it to work. The UI needs more work IMO.
use power ISO

This means that the DVD-R you inserted has something on it already. A truely blank DVD-R won't give you an icon since there is no file system that can be mounted.

I'd just use cdrecord from the command line, but that is just me.
