I backup files with k3b with default settings, so it is iso9660.

However I don't fully understand how this automount works, I am afraid
this problem it may be related to this mechanism. When I insert first
DVD it's mounted and when I remove DVD and put another one it's still
mounted as before, so maybe driver is confused and still thinks the
size of the DVD is like the first one.
