I had problems with burncd and my DVD drive when burning CD-RW's.  When
I tried atapicam and cdrecord, it gave me problems.  I believe it was
using burncd prior to atapicam that caused it because it works now if I
do not use burncd first.  You could try a reboot and use atapicam first;
the DVD drive may be in a funny state.  Just a guess.
