What kind of medium are you trying to burn here? What does dvd+rw-mediainfo
say? What burner do you have? How is it connected to your computer? Plain
IDE? SATA? USB? Firewire? Any other way?

Are your writer and medium able to write at the speed of 22.7x1352KB/s?
That's about 30MB/s.

And can you write with other programs to the medium? Say, with wodim?
