Ah, okay :)

 Could you try scsi -f /dev/rcd1c -c 'fa 00 32 00 00 00 00 00 00 00'? As
 already mentioned the command seems to be 10 bytes long, 'aa ff' appears
 rather as dummy padding than meaningfull part of the command.

It didn't accept that... tested with a -RW disc in the drive, and it
returned sense key illegal request, ASC/ASCQ 24/00. Works fine with
the aa ff at the end.

 I also wonder if you can try 'fa 00 32 00 01 00 00 00 00 00'? 

Same 24/00 error; however, 'fa 00 32 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 aa ff'
works. I can't tell what it does though; I tried it with a -RW disc
marked as -ROM, and the book type on the disc didn't change. I then
blanked the disc (dvd+rw-format -blank /dev/rcd1c), and the disc
reverted back to -RW, but that's what always happens. I then tried 'fa
00 01 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 aa ff', which the drive accepted. The media
was still marked as -RW. I then blanked the disc, but it stayed marked
as -RW.

Andy,

   Thank you so much for the response. I totally agree with you and my 
thought was close as well. This is what I’ve done,

# dvd+rw-format –force=full /dev/dvd

# cat tmp/VIDEO_TS/VTS_01* | growisofs –use-the-force-luke=seek:1024 –Z 
/dev/fd/0
# cat tmp/VIDEO_TS/VTS_02* | growisofs –use-the-force-luke=seek:2048 –Z 
/dev/fd/0
# cat tmp/VIDEO_TS/VTS_03* | growisofs –use-the-force-luke=seek:3072 –Z 
/dev/fd/0

// generate TOC
# dvdauthor –T –o tmp/
# mv tmp/VIDEO_TS/VTS* ../elsewhere
// now what’s under tmp/VIDEO_TS dir is VIDEO_TS.IFO and VIDEO_TS.bup
# cat tmp/VIDEO_TS/* | growisofs –use-the-force-luke=seek:0 –Z /dev/fd/0
   This is all worked, but it won’t work. Exactly because what you said, I 
need to generate the superblock and directory structure, but this have to be 
based on what I have been recorded on the DVD. Those are the parts I need 
help. Does anyone can tell me how to generate directory structure on DVD 
based on what have been recorded? Thanks, Chen

What makes a disk mountable? Sane superblock at predefined offset which 
usually points to a sane directory structure. And what do you get with cat 
tmp/VIDEO_TS/* | growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=/dev/fd/0? First blocks will be 
occupied by data from VIDEO_TS.BUP, followed by data from VIDEO_TS.IFO, 
followed by data from VIDEO_TS.VOB, etc. Is there a sane superblock at 
predefined location? No. Is there sane directory structure? No. You've got 
data from .BUP, .IFO, .VOB...

You wanted to record real-time video streams, right? Or streams of unknown 
size, unknown in the beginning of recording. What you have to do is to 
reserve some place in the beginning of media, dump VOB formatted video 
stream till it ends, then prepend it with IFO structure, append copy of IFO 
structure, then generate superblock and directory structure and record it 
to the space reserved in the beginning. *Then* and only then you'll be able 
to mount it and play with software DVD player or in set-top player. At 
every step you can use growisofs -use-the-force-luke=seek:N. E.g. at the 
frist step N would be the amount of space reserved for superblock, 
directory structure and IFO structure preceding video stream. A.

Re: Setting booktype on BTC 100[48] drives

2004-04-01 Thread Andy Polyakov
  First of all can you confirm that this actually affects
  DVD-dash recordings as well?
 
 I'm not sure what you mean by your first sentence. You can set the
 book type for DVD-RW media to DVD-ROM.

I wondered if booktype settings apply to both DVD- and DVD+, or DVD+
only. Given the dvd+rw-mediainfo output you provided, the answer is
both. I just wanted to be sure, that's all.

 It does seem to restrict the book type depending on the current media.
 At least, when I try to change DVD+RW media to DVD-RW book, it gives
 me an error:

Perfect.

 # scsi -f /dev/rcd1c -c 'fa 00 32 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 aa ff'

Could you try scsi -f /dev/rcd1c -c 'fa 00 32 00 00 00 00 00 00 00'? As
already mentioned the command seems to be 10 bytes long, 'aa ff' appears
rather as dummy padding than meaningfull part of the command.

I also wonder if you can try 'fa 00 32 00 01 00 00 00 00 00'? 

 The -s 3 option sets the timeout to 3 seconds. Sometimes it
 takes a few seconds to return; other times it returns immediately.
 However, even when it does return immediately, the drive may still be
 writing to the media and will reject additional commands with ASC/ASCQ
 04/08 (LUN not ready, long write in progress).

Perfect. A.
