Re: Problem using a TEAC DV-W22E withdvd+rw-tools/cdrecord-prodvd/dvdrtools.
If you need information about FreeBSD kernel bugs, ask the FreeBSD kernel team! You definitely need to replace your kernel with a working one! There was a deficiency in kernel that it does not provided sense codes automatically, as required by specifications. This problem was fixed in CVS, but 5.2 and 5.2.1 releases does contain this problem. This explains the kernel bug answer... :( dvd+rw-tools were teached to obtain sense information from kernel manually, so they fully work on 5.2.1. cdrecord relies on working autosense and thus don't work on 5.2.1. I already try to use dvd+rw-tools according to: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html But here is what I get: # dvd+rw-format -force /dev/cd0 * DVD±RW format utility by [EMAIL PROTECTED], version 4.9. :-( failed to locate Quick Format descriptor. * 4.7GB DVD-RW media in Sequential mode detected. * formatting |:-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h] :Input/output error Or: # dvd+rw-format -blank=all /dev/cd0 * DVD±RW format utility by [EMAIL PROTECTED], version 4.9. :-( failed to locate Quick Format descriptor. * 4.7GB DVD-RW media in Sequential mode detected. * blanking .:-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h] :Input/output error If I can understand the problem relating to the internal bug with the FreeBSD kernel (and not using cdrecord-proDVD), what may be wrong here?

In addition, you should have noted immediately after upgrading to the broken OS release and send out a bug report as well as downgraded back to the previous release.

I try to use dvd+rwtools in the first place because I follow the directions provided by the FreeBSD Handbook and because there is a FreeBSD port in order to managed its installation/upgrade process. Since it seems not to run as expected for me, I searched an other tool, and because I was very happy with cdrecord for CD-R/-RW in the past, I decided to give a try to cdrecord-proDVD (even if there is not a port yet: this is the reason for using the binary version of this program).
