TDK DVD Burner

[Dev Tugnait]

Hmm well i do know that im not really using k3b to burn (which is just a frontend to growisofs), it was recommended to me to diagnose my drive. I also did not claim that k3b will do mircales for me, so the abrasiveness is uncalled for. I am using growisofs, hmm the burner did claim to burn dvd-r and dvd-rw in the item specs or else i never would have bought a dvd-rw. I have read the docs, anyways i bought a dvd+rw so whenever it gets here hopefully things should be better.
