Re: Cdrecord-ProDVD, burning DVD+RW fails
Hi all, after numerous trials and studying the READMEs and mailing-lists concerning cdrecord-prodvd I haven't succeeded burning my DVDs with cdrecord-prodvd . So I switched to growisofs. growisofs is relatively simple and has not such a rich flavour of features like cdrecord-prodvd has, but it works, serves my needs and I am completely satisfied.

Re: cdrecord-prodvd also fails to write Moviestyle dvd
The only thing which comes to mind on that is that the directory structure might still be in memory. Seems unlikely, but there's no reason why it should work only until eject. If you force a read of all files, like an md5sum or such, are they all readable? The other thing which comes to mind is that the burner may still have certain media parameters cached. This is flushed on eject, when the disk is inserted again the drive needs to re-acquire. I can only come to one of these 3 conclusions: 1) the drive is faulty. 2) The media is faulty to start with, and is certainly faulty now. 3) The drive is unable to burn that particular media correctly, but it's close to borderline (otherwise there would be a total failure). In either of these cases the burnt disk is a coaster and not suitable as backup. Whenever there is read trouble and you're unsuere whether it's to do with the filesystem, *always* disregard the filesystem and read with dd directly from the device, like dd bs=2k if=/dev/dvdrecorder of=/dev/null. You're allowed *one* I/O error at the very end of the recording. Any more, and either or both drive and disk are faulty. There is basically no leeway for other options here if you care about your data.

Re: cdrecord-ProDVD key expired?
I saw saw a little note about the format of a request for a permanent key somewhere once, maybe it was in his readme file. You need to specify the operating system and some other things. The main thing you need to specify though is a valid reason why you can't keep using a key that expires. I have requested keys from him numerous times. My reason for the request was that my company is using it for commercial gain. He hasn't replied to any of my recent requests. I did manage to get one permanent key from him several years back. While his license may state non-commercial use he seems to be ok with allowing it to be used commercially.

Re: Re: cdrecord-ProDVD and Liteon DVDRW LDW-451S?
Hello Would it be possible to get an updated binary for SCO Openserver 5.0.5/6/7 with the LiteOn 451S work around. I have a 451S and a 411S that I would like to use for DVD archiving. I reported the problem to LiteOn and they said they didn't support Linux/UNIX even though it is a firmware problem they didn't seem to care. I have successfully compiled cdrtools current Alpha with success on the 5.0.5 development system. However On the 5.0.7 development system it doesn't compile as-is. I haven't had a chance to figure out what library it isn't finding yet. Also how do I contact and get information about clients that have commercial use?

Re: cdrecord-ProDVD and Liteon DVDRW LDW-451S?
From: Anssi Saari [EMAIL PROTECTED] All right! I managed to burn an ISO image to DVD-R at 4x and to DVD-RW at 1x (it's 1x media). Burn went fine and I was able to verify the data too based on md5, on the writer at least. I don't have any + media, so I can't test those, but - media seems to work fine based on these two burns. -atip seems to return decent information as well. I notice -prcap still doesn't say the drive can write any kind of DVD, but maybe it should. If you like this to be fixed, request a a bugfix for the firmware of the drive from the manufacturer.

It sees the option now. Yay! So what restrictions are there on when you can use it? Can you do DVD video with it on, or only data or what?

Re: CDRecord-ProDVD
Ok, is there another DVD burning program that supports the Pioneer A04 drive that can handle this? I am tired of Joerg's comments to me and other people, and I will tell my people to boot the computers into windows to burn DVDs until I get another program to burn DVDs under Linux. I have read both documents, many times. The man page for CDRecord and the README in your FTP directory. Some of the comments in both are hard to understand. I believe due to the poor German to English translation. For example, The following paragraph is not easily understandable: IMPORTANT NOTICE: *** The current versions do not work for DVD recording if you specify the -dao option. They write in DAO only without the -dao option. Cdrecord-ProDVD-1.11a35 and later fix this bug and allow to spedify -dao for correctness. Later versions will disallow to use cdrecord without -dao if writing DVDs. *** Too many double negatives to be easily understandable. Later versions will disallow to use cdrecord without -dao if writing DVDs. Should be rewritten as: Later versions of cdrecord will only write DVDs if -dao is specified. Many examples of this in the README and the MAN page. So, if you want me to use the man page or README to solve my problem, I suggest you do a better job of writing them, or have someone else with a better command of the english language write them. There is no man page for CDRecord-ProDVD. The only thing I got is a binary.

From: Lourens Veen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Okay, I've been reading this entire discussion for the past couple=20 of days, and I am wondering why there isn't a fork (or even a=20 completely alternative implementation) of cdrtools yet. I believe that it is easy to find an answer to this question: Since more than a year, I it seems that I am the only person who is working on free CD recording software (cdrecord).

It's amusing these discussions on this list here.

This is a result from discussions with several programmers. I tried to tell them what could be done better but to no avail. Well, Jörg to be honeset, I sometimes find it difficult to follow your arguments, perhaps because there is a tendency of stating what things should be like without beeing elaborate. Sometimes others need a bit more input to see why something is good/not so good. Lets face it, there are little programs which do work with that many platforms, but there also little programs developed by so few people.

Re: CDRecord-ProDVD
From: Karl Bellve [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am testing CDRecord-ProDVD and it is performing well. I have a few questions: 1) Does CDRecord-ProDVD use /etc/default/cdrecord as its configuration file or some other file? 2) Any get kreatecd to use CDRecord-ProDVD to burn a DVD-RW or DVD-R disk? I prefer to use kreatecd since it is much simplier and it is designed for Data. Currently, we use wrapper scripts for mkisofs/cdrecord but having a GUI where uses drag and drop files would be nice. X-CDRoast needs a flag to put it into simple mode for just doing Data. Xcdroast should work with cdrecord-ProDVD, Thomas promised me to fix some problems with DVD recording for the last release. Xcdroast should also be able to support a nice GUI to the graft points interface in mkisofs.

Interesting to see that you are not completely unwilling to communicate cdrecord is a GPLed software, and contains contributions from people other than him, and those people did not sign a copyright signover of any kind. So by running his own proprietary fork of it, he is violating the GPL on parts of the code (including a couple of mostly oneliner patches by me, and I'm sure that I for one do *not* agree with any of my code being used in proprietary software.). Plese contact a lawyer before making such false claims: Read the law that is important for this case: Cdrecord has completely been written in Germany. The German / European Copyright law (better let us call it Autorship rights law as the US people otherwise would missunderstand us because thay only have a Copyright law) is what applies here. Yes I did get contributions, but this was less than 5% in total and far less than 1% for the Linux or Solaris version. The Autorship rights law is dealing with a so called work and _not_ with single lines of code. In addition there is some principles of law that deal with accumulation of property which apply because there is not even a single source file that includes contributed code in a way that it dominates over the aount of my intellectual property found in this file. For this reason I am the original Author of cdrecord and _do_ have the right to publish it with any Licence I like. For the parts that are not critical code because the know how is widely spread, I choosed the GPL and for the parts where I am on the leading edge (cdrecord_ProDVD was the 3rd DVD-recording application world wide in February 1998) I keep the sources secret. I _am_ getting roughly one request to help other people from India, China or Russia for free to write their CDR program so I am sure that even CD recording is of high interest for many companies that like to cdreate a complete closed source solution. Let's look at his other accusations: This is not an independant fork of cdrtools! It sort of is. It's intended to be a free fork closely following the development of cdrtools, which happens to be a great piece of software for writing CDs. It's just too bad there are no plans to add DVD support in a legal version thereof, so it's time for someone else to do it. Cdrecord-ProDVD is a legal DVDD writing program what is your problem? In addition: Why do _you_ claim this and never tried to contact me before? You cannot know what you are talking of because you did not ask me! You can claim it's not really independant because it doesn't contain all that many changes to the cdrtools code, and you'd be somewhat right - I just added DVD support and fixed up [IMO -- see below] the build system. You did not fix it but you destroy the build system. You replaced a completely automated build system that allows you to compile on far more than 30 different OS by something worse. Why? If it ever becomes necessary, it can become a truly independant fork, though. I just hope it won't get that far. ??? It is rather an _unmaintained_ snapshot It is true that I haven't released many updates lately. This is mostly because I'm busy with other work, and because the current version works perfectly for me. Let us call it this way: After you fixed the worse bugs in YOUR build system that caused cdrecord to dump core you stopped working on it. I will release a newer version once I either have some spare time, or once I find a serious problem in the current version. You name it! You are a person who did make useless changes on the build system for unknown reasons and your only motivation was to have a private copy of cdrecord running for your A03. This way we never will get good and powerfull free software. that uses an add on which most likely has been created by reverse engineering cdrecord-ProDVD. For the record, it hasn't been. I believe proprietary software is evil, therefore I don't download it. So you don't use CVS which us proprietary software because it uses a non-standard archive format?

I don't want to see any of my code used in proprietary software, and I'm sure many others feel the same way. 1) It seems that you missinterpret the meaning of proprietary software 2) publishing under GPL definitely does not prevent your code from being used by non GPLd software. Cdrecord-ProDVD is a legal DVDD writing program what is your problem? 1. I believed it's illegal because of a GPL violation (and I'm still not 100% convinced it isn't one) It definitely does neither violate GPL nor the German/European Copyrights 2.

Sorry your definition of the word standard seems to be broken the same way as it is when used by M$ people. Why do so many FSF followers behave the same way as their putative worst enemy does? A standard is something that has been aggreed on by an independant gremium. This is definitely not true for M$ or FSF products. - It makes life easier for packagers because it supports stuff like make install DESTDIR=/foo YOu should READ documentation! It is even simpler with my build system. Your problem is that you once heavily struggled to understand how the non-standard GNU build system works and now obviously regret to learn that there are other (better) solution and that you need to read some documentaion the same way as it was needed for the GNU way. - It makes life easier for people trying to compile from source. ./configure --help |less ; ./configure --whatever is much easier than having to read a number of makefiles in different directories and editing them by hand, especially for non-programmers. - It automatically adapts to new OSes and OS versions rather than hardcoding Linux does things that way (assumptions which may not even be true on all Linux systems) the way your build system does in a few places. Now you are catched! In reallity it is exactly the other way round: - Programs that use the GNU build system only compile on platforms the mantainers of autoconf are aware of. - The Schily makefile system compiles even on unknown platforms if they are similar enough to other known systems. Of course, this property is only available if you use my 'smake' instead of the broken GNU make. This does work since January 2001 when I received my MacOS X box with the first official Darwin version which has been significaltly different in ID strings from all betas before. I'm sure you have a couple of good reasons to prefer your system as well. Let's just agree to disagree on this one, it's really another vi vs. emacs, Linux vs. GNU/Linux or Open

Keeping in mind that is is a 100 line patch and that the first binary test version of cdrecord-ProDVD did not come with -V disabled... In addition note that the author removed the tested and working make file system and replaced it by some piece of junk that works on Linux only by accident - it does not work on other OS! It seems that this person did try to write own autoconf code from what he did understand. Unfortunately it seems that he did not understand much :-( Look at the web page and judge yourself. The first thing that comes into mind is the 'pay' button. Writing portable code like cdrecord and make it work with all drives on the market is a hard job.

Re: Cdrecord--ProDVD test versions
Hello! After a lot of search and frustation about writing DVD on Linux, I decided to write my own free driver for cdrecord. The big problem is documentation that I don't have and I can only base my driver on last MMC3 draft from t10.org. The driver should be almost ready, but I did not test it in real mode because I just bought my drive and I have no DVD-RW yet. Anyway maybe today I will purchase a DVD-RW and do some more tests and monday I will release the patch. You can help me to test it more, maybe with other drives because I only have Pioneer A03 and Suse Linux 7.1 and eventualy Soalaris 2.6. mache [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why not 4.7 GB in real mode? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Did you ever tried to search? The only way you could find about it was from some mails and if you had a dvd-writer, from output of cdrecord. I did not wanted to buy a DVD writer until I knew that it will work on Linux. So I could not run cdrecord to tell me that I need to contact you to know more about dvdpro. Well I usually would look into the web. If you would have looked for DVD writing you would have had pointers to cdrecord-ProDVD. Of course I have problems with the price. I don't use the dvd for myself but for the company I work for. We could buy the drive for about 550EURO and media for about 25(RW) and 15(R) EURO. I'm sure that the prices will go down even more now with the introduction of DVD+RW media and drives. So in not so long time the DVD writing will be something possible for a home user. I these conditions not having a free program for writing dvds on a free OS is realy a bad thing. This is why I decided that my company should not buy the prodvd from you but to write a driver. A typical Linux user pays more for his Linux releases than a typical Solaris x86 user. It depends what is a typical Linux user in your conception.
