Re: BD-R formatting help

2008-11-19 Thread Thomas Schmitt
Hi,

 ./dvd+rw-format -ssa=4G /dev/dvd
 But when I execute this command, it says that it is invalid for the
 detected media.
   || (mmc_profile != 0x12  mmc_profile != 0x43 mmc_profile !=
 0x41  ssa) )
 After making the above change, it then gets past this portion

If i get the code of dvd+rw-format.cpp 0.7.1 right
then you are not supposed to use option -ssa together with
profile 0x41. You are supposed to use option -force.

At other spots in the code i find traces that ssa is well
expected, though. Your code change should have had a chance
for success.


 sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
 Deferred sr00:00: sense key Medium Error
 Additional sense indicates Format command failed

This does not look as if it was from dvd+tools but
rather from the kernel. Do you see that in a log file
or does it appear with the format run on terminal ?

Such an occasion would occur if the FORMAT command was
sent with IMMED bit for asynchronous work. A TEST UNIT READY
command which is used to watch progress then delivers
the error message of the asynchronous FORMAT.

As far as i can see the format descriptor gets the
right format type 0x32 for BD-R.


Can it be that the BD-R was already treated with
a format command previously ?
MMC-5 4.5.3.5 BD-R Recording Models says
 Once the recording mode has been established,
  it is not changeable.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas

Important Bug Fix: xorriso-0.2.8.pl01

2008-11-19 Thread Thomas Schmitt
Hi,

the current stable standalone release 0.2.8 of xorriso
has been patched for two bugs in libisofs of which one
is considered to be serious.
(Users of libisofs.6.so are advised to install 0.6.10.pl01.
 All previous versions are affected.)

Novelties:

* Bug fix: If images generated by mkisofs were loaded by libisofs then
   files of size 0 could share their size information with files
   that contain data.
   http://libburnia-project.org/ticket/144
   This bug is old and was hidden by the fact that libisofs uses
   a modern Rock Ridge version with persistent inode numbers.
   Its signature IEEE_1282 was not recognized by FreeBSD and when
   we tested the old RRIP_1991A the bug popped up as regression.
   This signature is used by mkisofs and so the bug is serious
   whenever one of its images shall get expanded by xorriso and
   already contains a regular file of size 0.

* Bug fix: When patching an ISOLINUX boot image the future LBA of the file
   was recorded too early. This does not hamper El Torito booting but
   prevents booting from an MBR created by syslinux tool isohybrid.
   http://libburnia-project.org/ticket/145

* Two harmless #include were added which were missed during FreeBSD porting.
  http://libburnia-project.org/ticket/142

System requirements:
  Linux with kernel 2.4 or 2.6: libc, libpthread.
  FreeBSD: libc, libpthread,
   ATAPI/CAM support enabled in the kernel, see atapicam(4).
Optional:
  libreadline + libreadline-dev

For more info, see http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/xorriso_eng.html
   http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/man_1_xorriso.html

Download:

There is a xorriso release tarball (containing the application
and all three libburnia libraries needed):
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/xorriso-0.2.8.pl01.tar.gz

Not needed for this xorriso tarball but for other applications
which use libisofs as libisofs.6.so :
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/libisofs-0.6.10.pl01.tar.gz

scdbackup.sourceforge.net is mirrored at scdbackup.webframe.org .
