Perhaps you can try a cli utility called wodim. which is CLI based CD/DVD
burning program.
Cheers Glenn

example
# wodim --devices

wodim: Overview of accessible drives (1 found) :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

0 dev='/dev/hda' rwrw-- : 'ATAPI' 'DVD A DH20A4P'

# wodim -v -dao dev=/dev/hda driveropts=burnfree whatever.iso
TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM

scsidev: '/dev/hda'

devname: '/dev/hda'

scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2

Linux sg driver version: 3.5.27

Wodim version: 1.1.8

Driveropts: 'burnfree'
SCSI buffer size: 64512
Device type : Removable CD-ROM
Version : 0
Response Format: 2
Capabilities :
Vendor_info : 'ATAPI '
Identification : 'DVD A DH20A4P '
Revision : '9P59'
Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW.
Current: 0x001B (DVD+R)

Be careful, wodim does not support writing DVDs correctly.
It is not based on cdrecords working DVD code but on a half backen
experiment that does not even read the media parameters from the drive.
