Looks like some bus problem. But this theory does not match your observation that growisofs burns successfully. > cdrecord: Please properly read the error message above. SPC-3, 4.5 Sense Data, tells that the "Sense Bytes" actually mean error code Key= B , ASC= 0 , ASCQ= 0 rather than Key= 0 , ASC= 0 , ASCQ= 3 as perceived by cdrecord. I do not find this combination in MMC-5 or SPC-3. But Key 0xB means according to SPC-3, table 27: "ABORTED COMMAND: Indicates that the device server aborted the command. The application client may be able to recover by trying the command again." According to SPC-3 tables 13, 14, and 15, "09 0C" announces an "ATA Return" of 12 bytes to be explained in specification SAT = "SCSI / ATA Translation [ISO/IEC 14776-921] [T10/1711-D]". I don't have this document. 6 of the bytes got not printed by cdrecord, anyway. ------------------------------------------------ Well, above is obscure enough on its own. But why does cdrecord receive the sense data in format 0x72 (which it obviously tries to decode like format 0x70) ? I assume this is an error condition produced by the bus controller or the operating system. (Aren't they aware of D_SENSE status ?) I am now busy with augmenting the code of libburn for this case. growisofs is not aware of sense format 0x72 either. In transport.hxx i see: #define ERRCODE(s) ((((s)[2]&0x0F)<<16)|((s)[12]<<8)|((s)[13])) which is correct only with format 0x70. ------------------------------------------------ > I tried the third [media] with growisofs which burns it fine. If this difference of cdrecord and growisofs is reliably reproducible, then there could be a trigger for success in growisofs drive preparation. It would be interesting to see how my program cdrskin does with the same options as cdrecord. (If an error occurs then the message will probably be as misleading. The augmented code is still being tested.) Have a nice day :) Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
