The disk I had been working with was a TDK 1-16x DVD-R disk. Interestingly,
these disks work without a problem on my stand-alone Lite-On hardware
recorder, yet give endless problems on my daughter's, which is the same model
and age.
I found one Imation DVD-R and issued the burn command again, and to my
surprise it burned immediately. The burn area looks about the right size,
too, but I can't read it. I'm guessing that it's not fixed. Do you think
that's it?

It does look as though it was a good part of the problem.
