BS. Every time somebody complains about k3b, the problem is in the backends. 
Very rarely is it a DVD problem, anyway - the problems usually stem from
cdrecord, which is always problematic.

Yeah, so then why do you think there's a problem with k3b?  I don't plan to
make backups by manually invoking a command line program with stupid
undocumented options like "use-the-force-luke".

K3b _worked_ for Dotan - it was growisofs that failed.
