The correct syntax is the syntax mentioned in > the man page dev=b,t,l Which man page, where? I don't see any manpage for cdrecord or libscg in my distro. (Ubuntu) $ man libscg No manual entry for libscg $ man cdrecord No manual entry for cdrecord See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available. I saw the dev=/dev/cdrom notation in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning Hence I have no idea what dev=b,t,l mean >> >> I have a Liteon DVD writer+ CD-Writer. >> >> >> >> This is the output when I use scanbus >> >> >> >> $ cdrecord --scanbus >> >> scsibus1: >> >> 1,0,0 100) 'LITE-ON ' 'DVDRW SOHW-1633S' 'BS0S' Removable CD-ROM >> >> 1,1,0 101) * >> >> 1,2,0 102) * >> >> 1,3,0 103) * >> >> 1,4,0 104) * >> >> 1,5,0 105) * >> >> 1,6,0 106) * >> >> 1,7,0 107) * > >> > It is correct, but in case you only have one drive in your system, >> > there is no need to specify dev= at all. >> >> >> Then, in my case how should I have given it? >> like this ? >> >> cdrecord driveropts=burnfree -v -data cd_image.iso >> >> Also is there a syntax or notation of speed which can be >> put up somewhere? > > cdrecord by default uses the max possible speed.

Although doing $cdrecord --help tells me few things. dev=target SCSI target to use as CD/DVD-Recorder speed=# set speed of drive I would be filing a bug if there is a manpage for cdrecord somewhere.
