Re: cdrecord-ProDVD key expired?

I saw saw a little note about the format of a request for a permanent key somewhere once, maybe it was in his readme file. You need to specify the operating system and some other things. The main thing you need to specify though is a valid reason why you can't keep using a key that expires. I hav

Mounting ISO files

This problem isn't related to cdrecord or mkisofs but since the users of both are familiar with ISO files I thought maybe somebody would be able to help. I am using Red Hat 7.3 and Red Hat 8.0 with the latest patches on several servers and have created a variety of ISO files using mkisofs. All th

Thanks for the reply. Everything was working fine though before the hostname change. Why would the hostname change affect cdrecord? Does cdrecord use the hostname at all? --- Joerg Schilling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >From: Brian Sullivan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > >

Re: Filesystem overhead?

2002-06-25 Thread Brian Sullivan
If the best guess technique is used that means almost all the discs would not be filled to capacity. The data be burned is being kept online via Pioneer jukeboxes in our data center (700 discs each). Thus the idea of not filling each disc to its full capacity means we are not maximizing our use of

Re: Filesystem overhead?

I have the same problem. My system is automatically receiving files over the network and archiving them to CD-R. I wanted a way to automatically determine in my own program when the CD-R would be full when selecting files to be put on the CD-R. For this to be accurate you need to know the filesyst

I'm using Red Hat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.3-12 and have 8 instances of cdrecrod burning all at the same time with no problem. The only thing I do is sleep for a couple seconds after starting each copy. Obviously you need an I/O system capable of handling all the data at once for each burner. I'm runni

The following link is to a DVD comparison guide, it explicitly states which DVD players support CD-R + CD-RW (plus whether or not it plays MP3s if interested). Unfortunately it covers just new models only. http://www.timefordvd.com/hardware/dvd/player/ComparisonChart.shtml --- Len Sorensen <[EMA

Re: How to write SVCD?

2001-11-26 Thread Brian Sullivan
. You should note that not all DVD players support VCD discs, in addition to that not all DVD players support CD-R or CD-RW discs. So be sure your player supports both CD-R and VCD. You have to check your player's documentation to see. Most low end players I've seen don't support CD-Rs.

Once again I appreciate everyone's input. I agree ATAPI can be used for certain scenarios and it can work well. Since in the future I will be burning discs with some sort of medium changer (jukebox) and I will be burning multiple DVD-Rs simultaneously (via multiple drives) IDE is just not a soluti

Thats not what I am claiming. I am just stating that since the IDE bus and hard drive is under such a heavy usage already that adding an extra 4.7 GB of throughput to another IDE device on the bus could possibly result in an increase in buffer underrun errors. I am afraid the bus would get so busy
