Eww. Do we know how Logical Block Addresses map to real dye spots geometrically ? That's not in MMC. Unless one could assume that the "Physical Adresses" really form a simple chain of media imprints. But i doubt that.

We seem to get in sync now (slowly): There is a visible difference in the dye and the report of your dvd+rw-mediainfo run indicates that probably 10 MB of spare have been used to protect you from data loss. (Whatever this other 50 % reservation is good for.) So if one can dare to make a linear extrapolation you should be able to compensate 10 millimeters of scratch before the spare area gets near to be exhausted. > Unfortunately it has been about two years since > I created this disc. Did you test whether your burner is still able to format a BD-R to default spare size ? Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
