Hi all,

After some checking just now, I think I found the problem: my DVD drive
now sees recordable DVD disks as invalid media. I'm going to run a
simple test a little later tonight to see if it is indeed a hardware
problem on the DVD drive. The DVD drive worked well for me before --
over 1 year ago. I had not used it for many months.
