Duh. me: > > None of my DVD drives offer 0x01 with DVD-RAM. That was outdated or misperceived info, obviously. Both, my current Samsung DVD drive and the LG BD drive do offer format 0x01 with DVD-RAM. Mounted Media: 12h, DVD-RAM ... READ FORMAT CAPACITIES: formatted: 2236704*2048=4580769792 00h(800): 2236704*2048=4580769792 00h(800): 2295072*2048=4700307456 01h(800): 2226976*2048=4560846848 01h(800): 2217248*2048=4540923904 Last time i checked DVD-RAM formatting was with a Philips DVD drive that has been replaced by the BD burner now. (I should try to revive my old NEC burner and check whether i need new glasses or a new brain ... probably the latter. Shrug.) ---------------------------------------------------------- Some observation with the -ssa=none BD-RE media (so it is good for something): It still makes a speed difference whether i use WRITE10 or WRITE12 with streaming bit. With WRITE10, the drive buffer is filled with varying amounts under 40 percent: xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 1490432s 69.8% fifo 100% buf 34% 2.1xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 1494784s 70.0% fifo 100% buf 23% 2.1xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 1499627s 70.2% fifo 99% buf 9% 2.1xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 1503768s 70.4% fifo 100% buf 18% 2.0xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 1536208s 72.0% fifo 100% buf 23% 2.1xB With WRITE12 and streaming: xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 899296s 40.1% fifo 98% buf 100% 2.3xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 904544s 40.3% fifo 100% buf 100% 2.3xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 909280s 40.5% fifo 100% buf 97% 2.3xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 914528s 40.8% fifo 100% buf 100% 2.3xB xorriso : UPDATE : Writing: 919264s 41.0% fifo 92% buf 100% 2.3xB Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
