One problem may be that you are not using cdrecord as the backend. Many
distros package cdrkit, and 20 year old version of cdrecord (created due
to an utterly childish battle between some of the debian people and
Schilling, the author of cdrecord). Schilling has kept cdrecord
(cdrtools) up-to-date with new recording hardware. The cdrkit people
have not. (cdrkit was a clone of an ancient version of cdrtools that
then languished as far as updates were concerned) So I would check what
it is that you are using in OpenSuse.
I also presume that you have at least tried to close the writing before
the disk is completely full (eg, just try to put on 5 of the videos
instead of 6 and see if things work then.
