I wonder if it is a region code problem.  I've rarely seen any dvd authoring software that has a region code option on it.  I have seen region code options in dvdshrink but that's about it.  I would suggest trying it on another dvd drive just in case there's something going on with the drive that  gave you the message below.

and dmesg shows

Does anyone know if that DF PROTO means region 2 which includes Japan?  Any other ideas I might try to learn what is going on?
