MXL means Maxell, right? Note that Maxell DVD-R brand was exposed to counterfeit attempt, see http://www.maxell.co.jp/e/release/20030704.html. How does your emballage look like? > Write Performance: 4.0x1385=5540KB/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> 2294911] > Speed Descriptor#0: 02/2298495 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s > Speed Descriptor#1: 02/2298495 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s Normally "Write Performance" appears in one of the "Speed Descriptor#N" as well. The fact that it doesn't means that unit failed to properly identify the media... > # growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/scd1=Input.iso > ... > :-[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with SK=3h/ASC=02h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error 3/02/00 stands for "NO SEEK COMPLETE" (see http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/keys.txt for transcripts), which just bizarre in this context and therefore most likely indicates poor firmware support for this media. Well, given that Maxell is well-established brand, it also might be as simple as media defect on that particular disk... Did you try several disks or just one? > # growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=1 -Z /dev/scd1=Input.iso > :-( Failed to change write speed: 5540->1385 Well, it's hardly growisofs fault. As mentioned above, unit apparently gets speed settings backwards. I would strongly recommend to try another media brand.
