After changing permissions and a restart, things seem to work just fine.

I like this DVD-RAM concept. I wonder why it didn't catch up, and
although my current DVD-RAM disc is slow (2x-3x) while my recorder
supports up to 12x, it is very convenient, without any need of burning
software, since it is hardware based.


Thanks again all for your input.
