I get this:

Device type    : Removable CD-ROM
Version        : 5
Response Format: 2
Capabilities   :
Vendor_info    : 'HL-DT-ST'
Identification : 'DVD-RAM GH40L   '
Revision       : '1.04'
Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW.
Using generic SCSI-3/mmc   CD-R/CD-RW driver (mmc_cdr).
Driver flags   : MMC-3 SWABAUDIO BURNFREE
Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO SAO/R96P SAO/R96R RAW/R96R
Why does it clam to be a CD-ROM not DVD writer in the Device type?

If it works, you can set cdrom=     /dev/sr0 in /etc/wodim.conf


Thanks.
