disc before
the final write begins.
What's happening is, it's closing the session, and not the disc. I'm fairly certain that cdrecord automatically closes the session on every burn, and the fixate closes the disc.
-multi Allow multi session CD's to be made. This flag needs to be
present on all sessions of a multi session disk, except you want
to create a session that will be the last session on the media.
The fixation will be done in a way that allows the CD-Recorder
to append additional sessions later. This is done by generation
a TOC with a link to the next program area. The so generated
media is not 100% compatible to manufactured CD's (except for
CDplus). Use only for recording of multi session CD's. If this
option is present, the default track type is CD-ROM XA mode 2.
The Sony drives have no hardware support for CD-ROM XA mode 2.
You have to specify the -data option in order to create multi
session disks on these drives. As long as cdrecord does not
have a coder for converting data sectors to audio sectors, you
need to force CD-ROM sectors by including the -data option if
you like to record a multisession disk in DAO/SAO mode. Not all
drives allow multisession CD's in DAO/SAO mode.
so it can be made to do multi session writes, only I have never succeded.
