You have repeated that statement already many times, but you still seem
to be missing the point anyways. The OP has already reformatted the
DVDs, so it is too late to tell him that it isn't necessary. And
formatting a disc with k3b doesn't put a filesystem on the disc, so you
can't mount the disc to write data to it.
