Hi, > Will dvd+rw-mediainfo work on solaris 10 (sparc) ?
Afaik, it works on Solaris. In growisofs.c i read: * 5.6: ... * - Solaris 2.x support is merged, it's volume manager aware, i.e. * you can run it with or without volume manager; (5.6 is several years old. Current is 7.1.) > if not solaris, then on linux. On Linux i could offer my own burn software. :)) > > Do you get a different -minfo output from a BD-R > > which never was involved in a failed write attempt ? > NO, the results were the same. > I do not believe cdrecord even tried to write anything. If the media is in that state at first use then indeed cdrecord is not a suspect here. > I did try NeroLinux 4 on a CentOS 5.3 (x86) machine. > However, when I tried to burn, it failed with errors. > Perhaps maybe helpful, the log file is attached. And there are people who say that open source error messages are hard to read. :)) > 01:37:49 AM #22 SCSI -1 File SCSIInterface.cpp, Line 624 > SCSI Exec, HA 2, TA 0, LUN 0, buffer 0x0xab9cd040 > Status: 0x04 (0x01, SCSI_ERR) > HA-Status 0x00 (0x00, OK) > TA-Status 0x00 (0x00, OK) > Sense Key: 0x00 (KEY_NO_SENSE) > Sense Code: 0x00 > Sense Qual: 0x00 > CDB Data: 0x2A 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x20 0x00 0x00 > 0x00 Command 2Ah is the WRITE command. It fails at the attempt to write 32 blocks to address 0. The drive does not tell a plausible reason. This drive behavior is not ok. So currently no burn program seems to be able to write to your media via your drive. To find out which of them is ill, you will have to try other media with the same drive and/or the reluctant media with a different drive. In your situation i would consider to challenge the seller of the drive to prove that it burns BD-R with at least one burn program on at least one operating system.
