There's a bug somewhere in Fedora affecting recording of DVD+R media.
It is not related to the brand of media, but rather to the type of
media. Specifically, DVD+R media. All other types (including DVD+RW,
reportedly) work OK. Since I got same behaviour with three different
programs (cdrecord, growisofs, and that gnome GUI thing), it might also
be kernel related.
If you are having trouble with CD-R media, than it is probably something
different.
