But minfo says Capacity Blklen/Sparesz. Format-type Type 2295104 2048 0x00 Unformated or Blank Media 2295104 0 0x26 Reserved (0) However, why then: - cdrecord cannot write the DVD and says "cannot format medium" (see burn.txt) - cdrecord will write the DVD after I format it manually ? cdrskin will format and write the medium automatically.
