Re: DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

[Dave Huang]

I finally had a chance to test dvd+rw-booktype for branding +R media
as -ROM, and it doesn't work. It seems that byte 4 of the CDB is not
the unit vs. media flag. For whatever reason, it has to be 0 to brand
as DVD-ROM, and 1 to brand as +/-R.

It doesn't make any sense to me either, but it's probably best to do
exactly as the Windows utility does (as outlined in
http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/cdwrite-200403/msg00185.html).
Pending feedback from Dave Woodward, that might also mean sending 20
zero bytes of data along with the command.

Here's a patch make -unit+r -dvd-rom-spec work:

As far as I can tell, their version numbers are a bit backwards. The
last two digits are the version number of the core firmware code, and
the first two are the minor revision number. Updated revision numbers
signify support for new media codes, whereas a new version means
actual code changs in the firmware.

So think of 0657 as 57.06 and 0258 as 58.02. Their change logs (e.g.,
) have the details
on what each version has.

Ok

I will try the windows utility and also upgrade to firmware 0258 to see what
happens.

Also I have tried contacting BTC about the firmware revisions where 0258 seems
to be the latest rather than 0657, but had nothing back yet, is there some
mystery to their numbering scheme?

Thanks

Dave

I'm stumped :( Since you've updated the firmware, I assume that you
can reboot into Windows or put the drive in a Windows machine... have
you tried the Windows BitSetting utility from BTC
?

The official Windows utility sends 20 zero bytes as data along with
the command, but that doesn't seem to be needed for me. Maybe it's
worth trying though...

Double-check Andy Polyakov's patch in msg00137.html; you have the
parentheses in the wrong place. It should be:

if (!(err=cmd.transport()) || ASC(err)==0x24)

instead of

if (!(err=cmd.transport()|| ASC(err)==0x24))

Not sure why the original code with the 0x1F -> 0x1E patch for
PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL didn't work for you though... it works for
me with 1008 firmware 0557.

BTW, BTC is now making firmware changelogs available on their site:
, and it looks
like firmware xx58 supports reading the booktype branding status for
+/-R media. However, I don't think they've updated their Windows
utility to use that command, so I have no idea how to use it.

Re: DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

[Dave Woodward]

I have modified the file dvd+rw-booktype.cpp with the patch mentioned in 
msg00126.html, have added the extra reporting patch and the additional 
patch from your last message, so that the source code looks like the 
following:

---
   {   // See if it's BTC design...
   cmd[0]=0xFA;
   cmd[4]=1;
   cmd[10]=0xAA;
   cmd[11]=0xFF;
   if (!(err=cmd.transport()|| ASC(err)==0x24))
   return btc (cmd,action,book);
   else if (ASC(err)==0x3A)
   return fprintf (stderr,":-( BTC_FAh: no media mounted\n"),1;
   else
   sperror ("BTC_FAh",err);

   case OPT_MEDIA:
   if (profile!=0x1A)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( action is applicable to DVD+RW 
only\n");
   break;
   }
   if (book != 0x92 && book != 0x01)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( BookType#%02x is not 
applicable\n",book);
   break;
   }
#if 0
   cmd[0]=0x1E;// PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL
   cmd[4]=1;   // "Prevent"
   cmd[5]=0;
   if ((err=cmd.transport()))
   {   sperror ("PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL",err);
   break;
   }
#endif
   cmd[0]=0xFE;
   cmd[1]=2;
   cmd[2]=book;
---
   obligatory = (profile==0x1A)?0x92:0x32;
   if (book!=obligatory && book!=0x01)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( BookType#%02x is not 
applicable\n",book);
   break;
   }
   

   cmd[0]=0x1E;// PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL
   cmd[4]=1;   // "Prevent"
   cmd[5]=0;
   if ((err=cmd.transport()))
   {   sperror ("PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL",err);
   break;
   }
---
However I seem to get the same error when I am trying to set the 
booktype on a +R and a +RW as follows :

Note

Just a quick update but I have updated to Firmware version 0657, but this has
made no effect.

Thanks

Re: DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

[Dave Woodward]

I have modified the file dvd+rw-booktype.cpp with the patch mentioned in 
msg00126.html, have added the extra reporting patch and the additional 
patch from your last message, so that the source code looks like the 
following:

---
   {   // See if it's BTC design...
   cmd[0]=0xFA;
   cmd[4]=1;
   cmd[10]=0xAA;
   cmd[11]=0xFF;
   if (!(err=cmd.transport()|| ASC(err)==0x24))
   return btc (cmd,action,book);
   else if (ASC(err)==0x3A)
   return fprintf (stderr,":-( BTC_FAh: no media mounted\n"),1;
   else
   sperror ("BTC_FAh",err);

   case OPT_MEDIA:
   if (profile!=0x1A)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( action is applicable to DVD+RW 
only\n");
   break;
   }
   if (book != 0x92 && book != 0x01)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( BookType#%02x is not 
applicable\n",book);
   break;
   }
#if 0
   cmd[0]=0x1E;// PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL
   cmd[4]=1;   // "Prevent"
   cmd[5]=0;
   if ((err=cmd.transport()))
   {   sperror ("PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL",err);
   break;
   }
#endif
   cmd[0]=0xFE;
   cmd[1]=2;
   cmd[2]=book;
---
   obligatory = (profile==0x1A)?0x92:0x32;
   if (book!=obligatory && book!=0x01)
   {   fprintf (stderr,":-( BookType#%02x is not 
applicable\n",book);
   break;
   }
   

   cmd[0]=0x1E;// PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIA REMOVAL
   cmd[4]=1;   // "Prevent"
   cmd[5]=0;
   if ((err=cmd.transport()))
   {   sperror ("PREVENT MEDIA REMOVAL",err);
   break;
   }
---
However I seem to get the same error when I am trying to set the 
booktype on a +R and a +RW as follows :

[EMAIL PROTECTED] dvd+rw-tools-5.19.4.9.7]#

I believe the 1008 requires 0256 or later; Dave Woodward has 0557,
same as I do, so it should be fine. The 1004 requires firmware 0050 or
later.

Re: DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

First of all I want to say that BTC support was released practically
untested, as the user who provided the information about BTC extension
never replied to the request to verify the suggested code.

Hmm, I never received any request... the last email I received from
you was this one:
http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/cdwrite-200404/msg5.html
I've sent you one off-list with download instructions. But never mind...
In any case, I haven't had a chance to try to set a DVD+R disc to
DVD-ROM book type, but changing the book type of DVD+RW and DVD-RW
discs works fine, after correcting a minor typo:
As you might have noticed another user can't even to btc()... Is there

For a minor aspect of your message on cdwrite@other.debian.org :

I had the same impression when i tried to subscribe via the web form at
  http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/

Then i read http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/ and noticed that they
talk about   [EMAIL PROTECTED],
while this is cdwrite@other.debian.org

So i sent a mail with subject "subscribe" to 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
Some minutes later i got a mail from there with a confimation code
which i sent back. That did the trick.

Have a nice day :)

I cannot seem to set the bitsetting of a DVD+R disk to DVD-ROM, if there is

setting the booktype with a BSD scsi command, but I cannot seem to locate it,
however the output of the dvd+rw-booktype is as follows:

return fprintf (stderr,":-( BTC_FAh: no media mounted\n"),1;
else
sperror ("BTC_FAh",err);
Can you test it with some rewritable media? A.

DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

[Dave Woodward]

Can anybody help me on this one.

I cannot seem to set the bitsetting of a DVD+R disk to DVD-ROM, if there is
anything I can try please let me know, I have seen a previous post about
setting the booktype with a BSD scsi command, but I cannot seem to locate it,
however the output of the dvd+rw-booktype is as follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ide]# dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom-spec -unit+r /dev/scd1
