I think I see the problem:

ERROR: failed while running growisofs
result 64512, command was: growisofs -Z /dev/dvd1 -dvd-video -V 'mythtv
burn DVD' /mytharchivetemp//work/dvd
                           ^^

You seem to have two slashes between directory mytharchivetemp and 
work/dvd.  This is most likely problem in your Mytharchive settings. 
You probably have one too many slahses at the end of your temp folder 
setting.  Remove one and you should be good to go.
