Just upgraded to that firmware. Burnt a Princo 4x disc @ 6x (2108 Mb average 4.6x1385KBps) Cool. Burnt a 2.4x +RW. Fine. Tried dvd+rw-booktype and get this now: $ dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom-spec -media /dev/cdroms/1 :-[ PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL failed with SK=5h/ASC=20h/ACQ=00h]: Operation not supported Current media Book Type Field is 92h: DVD+RW specification [revision 2] Traced back and it looks like the firmware hack presents itself as a BTC. I applied the patches at: http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/cdwrite-200404/msg00126.html http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/cdwrite-200404/msg00137.html It doesn't error, but neither does it change the book type. What next?

Setting booktype on NEC 2500A
Andy, I just swaped out my problematic Optorite 203 for an NEC 2500A. Very happy with the drive thus far. I intend to upgrade the drive to some third party firmware that removes the video read limit and more importantly adds bitsetting. (Very important to me since I can't read +R/W media in my panasonic laptop drive) See: http://forum.rpc1.org/viewtopic.php?t=24692 http://www.herrie.org/ How should I go about trying to add support for the NEC 2500A to dvd+rw-booktype? Since quite a few 'unofficial' firmwares are becoming available that support bitsetting, the better question might be how can we add more generic support to dvd+rw-booktype? Dave
