You must have a very special unit:

Factory Specs are:

Write Support
DVD DVD-R 4.7GB, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW
Read Support
DVD DVD-ROM, DVD-VIDEO (Single & Dual layer), DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW & DVD-RAM

It is not a Dual Layer Unit for writing; only to read - as are most DVDs made to date. Dual Layer write units are now available and have higher recording capactiy as a consequence. 4.7Gb is standard for DVD burners.

Now as for ewrrors, you may be attempting to record too much data or using bad media.

Try using the -R discs if you now use +R discs.
