I posted a similar experience a couple of days ago
(after having burned 22 unusable DVD's).

Yes, genisoimage-1.1.16 is broken.

The generated iso images won't be readable by a Windows machine,
it will simply reject to list anything on the CD/DVD.

Go back to genisoimage-1.1.12 and the problem is solved.

I would have bugzillaed this, but there's no entry for
genisoimage.

Apparently a known problem upstream:
