I successfully burned several Blueray Disk with this command:

growisofs -allow-limited-size -Z /dev/sr0 -r -speed=4 -J -V "Backup 01" /home/default/Documents/Backup/

But when I tried to burn an BD50 dual layer, it stucked at 52.27% with this error:

52.21% done, estimate finish Sun Aug 14 23:01:53 2016
52.23% done, estimate finish Sun Aug 14 23:02:01 2016
52.25% done, estimate finish Sun Aug 14 23:02:04 2016
52.27% done, estimate finish Sun Aug 14 23:02:21 2016

/dev/sr0: flushing cache

:-[ CLOSE SESSION failed with SK=5h/INVALID FIELD IN CDB]: Input/output error

How do I overcome this problem?

Try growisofs -use-the-force-luke=spare:none -dvd-compat -overburn -Z /dev/sr0=/path/to/file.iso

You may also have to include the -iso-level 3 switch according to man genisoimage With level 3, no restrictions (other than ISO-9660:1988) do apply

You may also have to include the -UDF switch which according to man genisoimage:

Include UDF filesystem support in the generated filesystem image. UDF support is currently in alpha status and for this reason, it is not possible to create UDF-only images. UDF data structures are currently coupled to the Joliet structures, so there are many pitfalls with the current implementation. There is no UID/GID support, there is no POSIX permission support, there is no support for symlinks. Note that UDF wastes the space from sector ~20 to sector 256 at the beginning of the disc in addition to the space needed for real UDF data structures.

However the -dvd-compat switch should do the trick here.

The -overburn parameter may not be necessary, but I cannot tell that for certain. The -dvd-compat parameter makes growisofs close track/session/disc to make it more compatible with some Blu-ray players that do not like multisession discs.

The poorly documented -use-the-force-luke=spare:none parameter appears to be the key parameter to solve the problem. It instructs growisofs to not pre-format the blank BD-R media. Pre-formatting the media instantly takes up 256MB of disc space for defect management.
