To be heretic: Did anybody see Defect Management work with any type of media (MRW, DVD-RAM, BD-RE, BD-R) in a way that is not worse than a plain bad block ? My experience is with DVD-RAM and there the answer is no. If defects are frequent then you have to fear that some show up later after the burn. All in all you cannot trust such a media anyway. On the level of an ISO 9660 filesystem i believe that a software solution could in many cases be the better one: - write session quick and dirty - compare files on disk and in session - in case of errors write an add-on session which replaces the damaged files. ---------------------------------------------- As for Matt's idea with the scratch demo: I have DVDs which look like an ice stadium and they work perfectly. Others have no scratch and they failed to verify after one or two burns. One can hardly drill holes without endangering the drive. But how about a few dots with a black felt tip marker ? Tell me how it worked out ... when it finally works. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
