An alternative to growisofs is a patch to cdrecord, then you are using 
mkisofs and dvdrecord.... 
Growisofs has the advantage to allow both +R and -R, not sure about 
dvdrecord, actually I would be suprised it if does.
Now from what I understand only +R format allows you multi session burning...
But you need to double check that.
