I already try to use "dvd+rw-tools" according to: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html But here is what I get: # dvd+rw-format -force /dev/cd0 * DVD�RW format utility by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, version 4.9. :-( failed to locate "Quick Format" descriptor. * 4.7GB DVD-RW media in Sequential mode detected. * formatting |:-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h] :Input/output error Or: # dvd+rw-format -blank=all /dev/cd0 * DVD�RW format utility by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, version 4.9. :-( failed to locate "Quick Format" descriptor. * 4.7GB DVD-RW media in Sequential mode detected. * blanking .:-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h] :Input/output error If I can understand the problem relating to the internal bug with the FreeBSD kernel (and not using cdrecord-proDVD), what may be wrong here? Am I missing something? > The help here is not easy. I'd suggest you to upgrade to -CURRENT, if > you're ready to face all the possible problem of running CVS code. ... not really. In this particular case: a choice between FreeBSD-CURRENT + cdrecord-proDVD or FreeBSD-5.2.1 + dvd+rw-tools I would prefer the second choice: staying with the OS release branch. > Other posibilities are running FreeBSD 4.x or avoid using cdrecord. Is there no chance to use FreeBSD-5.2.1 + dvd+rw-tools together? Thanks, -- -jpeg. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
