You might just be lucky, that it did work. This is what was said on the
Xcdroast site, relating to DVD+RW's.

Note about DVD+R/RW support:
cdrecord.ProDVD requires in some cases the command-line option "-force"
to write on DVD+R/RW media. If this option is missing you get the
irritating message: "Cannot write CD's >= 100 minutes". As X-CD-Roast
does not yet support the -force option, you have to wait for a new
version, or use the command line manually. 

Since I don't have a DVD+RW writer, I can't verify it.
