Can you conclude that ? I don't think you can ..

All these bits of writing software introduce their own drivers, or more correctly a filter class each & they are forever conflicting with each other

What's doing the burning bit for dvdshrink ? (that just does the re-encoding bit & then passes the burning bit to some other program) - Nero ? Something else ? But I'm assuming you must have at least one other writing type product.

The general 'fix all' advice is to uninstall every single burning type application & then check with something like This very handy utility that they are all gone. (you can look now & see if you have any dupliactes as that's often an issue) & here you say ..
..also I just bought bought the drive ..
.. meaning it replaced another ? & you had burning software already present ? (any kind of burning s/w even for a CDR) .. if so defiinately take it all off & then add back one at a time, testing as you go.
