"claims" does not mean i doubt it. I just did not test it myself. Different from other things which i carefully tested with all our wealth of burn programs. > I have not yet been able to set the layer break for > DVD-R/DL. Reading MMC-5 i am not sure wether it is mandatory to set a layer break explicitely. Paragraph 4.3.5 "DVD-R Dual Layer" talks much about Layer Jump Recording (flip-flopping between layers) but is quite silent about DAO and Incremental. Paragraph 4.3.7 "DVD+R Dual Layer" is much more detailed about the layer hop. Nevertheless there is a statement which makes me believe it is worth a try to just write to it as to a fat DVD+R. In 4.3.7.5 "Recording on DVD+R DL": "The Host is permitted to select a smaller address for this location (See 6.34)." 6.34 describes MMC command BFh SEND DISC STRUCTURE. I guess they mean: 6.34.3.2.4 "Format = 20h: Layer Boundary Information" I would be interested to learn about your opinion and experiences. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
