You must have upgraded from FC1... ?

cdrecord supercedes dvdrecord now, so erase dvdrecord first, then try the
update again.

rpm -e dvdrecord

Apparently it works ok if you use an "upgrade" option instead of
"update"... like yum upgrade vs yum update. But you can erase the obsolete
one manually then everythiung works OK...
