WRONG READ READ READ Nobody did ever give support for bastardized cdrecord versions. This has nothing to do with cdrecord-ProDVD but with the fact that the makers of the bastardized patches do not even care if the patch works at all :-( > So if I can bring any help for cdrecord, either the Free version, either > your ProDVD proprietary version, I would be glad and everybody will > benefit. But please don't try to be misleading.

Again: What is your problem except from the fact that you did not read the documentation and thus use wrong parameters that result in a warning? What driver options do you expect to appear? Note that you did use the subject "speed problems"......
