Hello all --
I'm trying to get my semantic understanding correct. The Bacula User's Guide
regarding DVD use states the following:
Reformatting DVD+RW 10-20 times can apparently make the medium unusable.
> Normally you should not have to format or reformat DVD+RW media. If it is
> necessary, current versions of growisofs will do so automatically.

Is "reformatting" the same as "blanking" (meaning, writing ASCII NULL
characters to, say, the entire disc if blanking the entire disc)?
Thanks for any clarification on the terminology.
Cheers.
