J�rg,

In version 1.11a31, cdrecord prints "-prcap" (scsi_cdr.c) as:
  Maximum read  speed in kB/s: xxxx
  Current read  speed in kB/s: xxxx
  Maximum write speed in kB/s: xxx
  Current write speed in kB/s: xxx

in version 1.11a35 it prints it as:
  Maximum read  speed:  xxxx kB/s (CD  32x, DVD  4x)
  Current read  speed:  xxxx kB/s (CD  32x, DVD  4x)
  Maximum write speed:   xxx kB/s (CD   4x, DVD  0x)
  Current write speed:   xxx kB/s (CD   4x, DVD  0x)

By changing this it now become necessary for some front-end authors to run
"cdrecord -version" and have 2 different parses for "-prcap" to set the
default speed for a user's recorder. Besides the maintenance headache it
increases the startup time of the program (at least in Windows).

Front-end authors are big supporters of cdrtools and I think have made some
significant contributions to its popularity. All I'm asking for is
consistancy. If this change is just a whim could you change it back in
future versions? Or if it is absolutely necessary could you give us a
warning in the future about changes that may effect front-ends?

Thanks much,

Bill Mudd
