Even if it is the technically correct term for what is > going on I doubt FAQ readers actually care and would suggest to avoid it The verification process by reading the readily written medium is not the same that the drive performs internally by default with DVD-RAM, BD-RE, or formatted BD-R. The term in the MMC specs for the latter is "Defect Management". (Nomen est omen.) The former is not covered by specs. I'd call it "verification". My technical advise is to avoid "Defect Management" by not formatting BD-R or by using option stream_recording=on of my programs xorriso or cdrskin. This gives a 2 or 3 fold speed advantage with writing. As substitute for the omitted internal check, i advise to read the written data after the write run has finished. Only this gives the certainty that the medium is really readable without errors. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
