Can anybody help me on this one. I cannot seem to set the bitsetting of a DVD+R disk to DVD-ROM, if there is anything I can try please let me know, I have seen a previous post about setting the booktype with a BSD scsi command, but I cannot seem to locate it, however the output of the dvd+rw-booktype is as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ide]# dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom-spec -unit+r /dev/scd1 This program targets units of RICOH, BENQ and BTC designs. /dev/scd1 doesn't appear to be one. Exiting. I have recently installed dvd+rw-tools v5.19 as shown by the following command: [EMAIL PROTECTED] dvd+rw-tools-5.19.4.9.7]# growisofs -version * growisofs by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, version 5.19, front-ending to mkisofs: mkisofs 2.01a17 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu) The DVD writer I am using is a BTC 1008 with firmware revision 0557 as shown by the following command: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ide]# scsi_info /dev/scd1 SCSI_ID="0,1,0" MODEL="DVDRW IDE1008" FW_REV="0557" Also here is a dump of the media information: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ide]# dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/scd1 INQUIRY: [DVDRW ][IDE1008 ][0557] GET [CURRENT] CONFIGURATION: Mounted Media: 1Bh, DVD+R Current Write Speed: 4.0x1385=5540KB/s Write Speed #0: 4.0x1385=5540KB/s Write Speed #1: 2.0x1385=2770KB/s Speed Descriptor#0: 00/2295103 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s Speed Descriptor#1: 00/2295103 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s [EMAIL PROTECTED]/s READ DVD STRUCTURE[#0h]: Media Book Type: A1h, DVD+R book [revision 1] Media ID: MEDIA ID/001 Legacy lead-out at: 2295104*2KB=4700372992 READ DISC INFORMATION: Disc status: blank Number of Sessions: 1 State of Last Session: empty Number of Tracks: 1 READ TRACK INFORMATION[#1]: Track State: blank Track Start Address: 0*2KB Next Writable Address: 0*2KB Free Blocks: 2295104*2KB Track Size: 2295104*2KB Many Thanks Dave Woodward
