According to [1] the burner supports DVD+R/DL. I never tried before
though and it's been around 2 years since I burned anything. I did
burn a single layer DVD with growisofs with it a few minuted ago so in
generall the burner still works. growisofs fails on the DVD+R/DL too
so it might be the media type is incompatible with my burner. Media
are Platinum DVD+R/DL 8x speed and brand new.
