That looked more hopeful, then -

growisofs -speed=2 -Z /dev/dvdwriter -R -J /Backup/amandatapes/Dailys/slot9
Executing 'mkisofs -R -J /Backup/amandatapes/Dailys/slot9 | builtin_dd 
of=/dev/dvdwriter obs=32k seek=0'

:-( /dev/dvdwriter: 15872 blocks are free, 877711 to be written
:-( write failed: No space left on device

The directory slot9 is 1.9GB, so should not have a problem fitting into a DVD.  
I must still be getting something wrong.
