Ok i must admit defeat. You where right. Went into single user mode and drive burned with no problem. So back to kde, removed device-manager 1.1.1 plasmoid , replaced it with device notifier and now i can burn....<br>Thank you for entertaining my stubbornness as to this being a hardware issue. The only thing i dont get is why the sony drive worked?<br>

</div>One point in favor of my theory.<br>
CD-R[W] and DVD-R[W] are the vulnerable media.<br>
No burn program can protect them if a process<br>
gets access and performs commands.<br>
<br>
"DVD-DL", is that DVD-R DL ?<br>
Quite a rare type. Normal is DVD+R DL.<br>
If you had immediate failures with DVD+R DL then<br>
this would be a blow for my theory.<br>
(Not slow writing or read errors. Just write<br>
failure for no visible reason.)<br>
