If you can use it as a reader you can use it as a writer as well.
Personally I use xcdroast as a frontend to cdrecord/mkisofs although
gcombust seems to do the same job. It scans for devices and reads
the capability from the device so you have to worry too much about
configuration.
If you're using Debian you just install xcdroast, it installs the
dependencies for you - if you're using some other distro ........
I've not burnt DVDs so I don't know the issues.
