23 I've noticed similar problems - some dvd's that I burn can only be re-read
24 in my burner and not in my other dvd-rom drive. But some work.

26 I've wondered if it is something to do with the disc variant -R, +R and
27 all that, but I've never really looked into it. Now I always test that I
28 can read back the contents of the disc to a temp directory just to be sure
29 it works.
