Hello dear list: I don't know if here can I ask about dvd+rw-format, the autor of dvd+rw-tools points this list.
So, I've tried to format a BD-RE disc with a different approach than *default* or *none spare tables.* But always get error. I've tried also to figure out if something went wrong in calculation of the spare register, but I can't figure it out. I've tried 5 different burners (1 LG, 3 Pioneer, 1 Samsung) with 4 different BD-RE brands (Kodak, Memorex, Ri-Data, Verbatim) 25GB (Ignore the debugging, I've touched the source to see the internal maths) I'm currently using Debian 10, and only -ssa=none or -ssa=default is working. max and min also does not work. ¿How can I select different format capacity? Best Regards in advance dvd+rw-tools-7.1$ ./dvd+rw-format -f /dev/sr0 -ssa=32m * BD/DVD±RW/-RAM format utility by <[email protected]>, version 7.1.
