Hello again,
And we have found that changing a tape to "recycle" it changes to "read
only" so we suppose that this is the reason for not being used, but why?

Why volflags is 'r' (read-only) when changing to recyclable?
The report above shows that you have set the tapes to manual recycle.
The "M" in the state column means manual recycle, and the X means manual
recycle and also recyclable. You must change these to notmanual before
they can be automatically recycled.
Manual mode is something that you or someone at your site did - not
something that happens as part of the media lifecycle. If you don't do
this in future then this problem won't happen again.
