Mt.Rainier-capable [i.e. ether CD-MRW or DVD+MRW] unit should exhibit mode page #3h... > 2A: ... > ... > 00: > 00: 08 04 5f 00 3f 0f 00 2e 04 04 7f 00 80 00 00 2f > 04 04 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e9 12 00 00 00 00 > 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ... or mode page #2Ch. #2Ch might be hidden in this cruft and I have no idea why dvd+rw-mediainfo failed to parse it. If anybody does, speak up:-) > READ FORMAT CAPACITIES: > unformatted: 2295104*2048=4700372992 > 26h(0): 2295104*2048=4700372992 But most important DVD+MRW-capable unit is expected to exhibit format descriptor #24h. Which brings us to the conclusion that unit in question does *not* support DVD+MRW, at least not the MMC way. A.
