growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvdrw1 -dvd-video <directory with VIDEO_TS
and AUDIO_TS>
I've been using this command until it stopped working the way I described
[ie after new Kubuntu installation].
Then I tried all other ways I knew to create functional videoDVD [k3b,
genisoimage].

Yes, the disc is working in [maybe not all] dvd player but not on windows.
I found out it's a filesystem problem. When I use *older* genisoimage from
Kubuntu 7, it works! [at least k3b does, which is frontend to genisoimage,
I believe] It's version 1.1.2 while the problematic version of genisoimage
is 1.1.6. I haven't found anything interesting in the changelog [maybe
because I do not fully understand everything there :)].
