The funny part is that the same media may burn fine in another burner. I also find that if I want to be sure of being able to read the burned media in a different drive, that it is better to burn CDs are 16x, and DVDs at 4x. When it comes to rewritable CDs, there are 2 types. One is good from 1x to 4x and the other from 4x up. Most drives that will write rewritable CDs will only do one or the other, not both. Drives rated for only the 1x to 4x rewritable CDs do not normally handle the 4x+ CDs, even at the 4x speed.
Thanks, Mikkel. I was not aware of the fact that recording speed may cause problems. I noticed that Nero Linux by default records at a higher speed than growisofs. Maybe it is safer to use only growisofs and leave NeroLinux, as I have never had any problem with media recorded with growisofs.
