multi session and cdrecord-ProDVD
Hi, does anybody know howto write more than 1 session onto a DVD with cdrecord-ProDVD. (I know it's possible with growisofs) Many thanks for a hint Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

cdrecord-ProDVD 2.01.01a01 Linux binary has expired!
Hi Jörg, This mail is mostly for you as you are the only one who can solve the problem. The most recent cdrecord-ProDVD version is an alpha binary and is more than one year old. Hence it has expired now! That this is the case can be seen from berlios ftp server listing: -rwxrwxr-x 1 ftp ftp376924 Jan 5 2005 cdrecord-prodvd-2.01.01-i686-pc-linux-gnu I did notice that the license/binary timeout shows itself in a little cryptic way, namely as a long wait followed by a "faio_wait_on_buffer for writer timed out" error message and an Alarm Clock "abort". I know this behaviour is documented in ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README but it would be really appreciated (by me at least) if a future version of cdrecord-ProDVD did produce a clear error message in case of license problems. Better yet, do away with the license checks! ;-) Cheers, Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

2005 October 22, cdrecord-ProDVD key expired
Hi,
it's 2005 Oct 22 21:27:16 and my copy of cdrecord-ProDVD went
on strike ("Alarm clock").
I read in ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README :
"As I am not sure if people will follow my licensing rules, so these
keys are time limited and will expire on 2005 Oct 22 18:53:20
I will continue to make private/educational/research use free,
but it may be that you need to request your private key for free
after 2005 Oct 22 18:53:20."
and in ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/cdrecord-wrapper.sh :
"# Key Expires ---> 2005 Oct 22 18:53:20"
I hereby request a license key for free for private/research use.
If there is already a new license key uploaded then its URL would
be highly appreciated.
Have a nice day :)
Thomas

Re: Cdrecord-ProDVD, burning DVD+RW fails
Hi all, after numerous trials and studying the READMEs and mailing-lists concerning "cdrecord-prodvd" I haven't succeeded burning my DVDs with "cdrecord-prodvd ". So I switched to "growisofs". "growisofs" is relatively simple and has not such a rich flavour of features like "cdrecord-prodvd" has, but it works, serves my needs and I am completely satisfied.

Cdrecord-ProDVD, burning DVD+RW fails
Hi all, I use a notebook running Debian-woody (kernel 2.4.26). Attached to it via USB is an external DVD writer (LG, GSA-5163D) . DVD+RWs and CDs can be mounted and read, but writing doesn't work.

I can't mount the dvd on my dvdrw drive.
On the other hand I can mount it my dvdr-rom drive. The command
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum | grep FAIL
does not find problem, but I get I/O errors in syslog:
Jun 29 15:33:23 gandalf kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown

Jun 29 15:33:30 gandalf kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
And now the drive seems to be stuck. Even a plain 'ls' hangs. I guess that
I'll have to reboot soon.
Anyway, I'll trash the faulty dvds.
Thanks for your help.

This is flushed on eject, when the disk is inserted again the drive needs to "re-acquire". I can only come to one of these 3 conclusions: 1) the drive is faulty. 2) The media is faulty to start with, and is certainly faulty now. 3) The drive is unable to burn that particular media correctly, but it's close to borderline (otherwise there would be a total failure). In either of these cases the burnt disk is a coaster and not suitable as backup. Whenever there is read trouble and you're unsuere whether it's to do with the filesystem, *always* disregard the filesystem and read with dd directly from the device, like dd bs=2k if=/dev/dvdrecorder of=/dev/null. You're allowed *one* I/O error at the very end of the recording. Any more, and either or both drive and disk are faulty. There is basically no leeway for other options here if you care about your data.

Re: expired cdrecord-ProDVD builds for HP-UX
Hi, i resolved my "alarm clock" by downloading only the current wrapper script ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/cdrecord-wrapper.sh which obviously contains the new license key. (Saying: "Key Expires ---> 2005 Oct 22 18:53:20") I did not have to get a new cdrecord-ProDVD binary. (still "Cdrecord-ProDVD-Clone 2.01b31 (i686-pc-linux-gnu)") Of course this will not bring you further than 2.01a27 with HP-UX.

expired cdrecord-ProDVD builds for HP-UX
One of my coworkers recently noticed the infamous "Alarm clock" error from cdrecord-ProDVD on our HP-UX workstations. She's been using cdrecord-ProDVD 2.01a27 which is the newest version available on the berlios FTP site for HP-UX. Apparently, this alpha release is expired, and there is no 2.01 release to take its place for HP-UX yet. I advised her to change the symbolic link to point to the 2.0 version instead. Is Joerg planning to release newer versions of cdrecord-ProDVD for HP-UX 10.20, or are we stuck with 2.0 forever? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Reading the error/warning output could. I quoted the relevant part above. You're using the unbelievably old, very, very deprecated "ATAPI" device interface. This API does not support DMA at all. The fact that using_dma is on is irrelevant; this API disables DMA no matter what. Solution: Address the drive as "ATA:0,0,0" instead of "ATAPI:0,0,0". Note: Noone can guarantee that DMA will work using ATA:. The Linux kernel drivers seem to be generally crappy in this area. But with this API, there's at least a theoretical chance for DMA. @JÃrg: Is it actually useful to keep this interface around? Any real-world reason to use it? I suggest removing it and aliasing ATAPI: to ATA: in future versions. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

NEC ND-3520A - Speed issues in cdrecord-prodvd and growisofs
Hi all, I recently picked up a NEC ND-3520A and I am having speed problems with this drive under linux. A quick "just to make sure" test in WinXP shows that these errors are indeed specific to cdrecord-prodvd and growisofs. The media I am using MID is "PRODISC/R03" and I can burn this media perfectly in WinXP using Nero at 4/6/8/12x. Under linux, however, I see a few different things: Regarding cdrecord-prodvd, this drive shows up as only being able to write at 6x max. I am using the latest release of this software, and at the bottom of this post is a -prcap output. Regarding growisofs, dvd+rw-mediainfo shows that in Speed Descriptor #0-3 that this media indeed can be burned at 4/6/8/12x, however oddly enough under "GET [CURRENT] CONFIGURATION:" the "Write Speed" descriptions only go up to 6x -- However, when growisofs is executed it WILL burn this media at 12x, but unfortunately I wish to burn this media at 8x; specifying -speed=8 does nothing but burn this media at 12x again. dvd+rw-mediainfo output is at the bottom of this post. I hope that with this info I can help get these two problems resolved with the NEC ND-3520A burner. If you need more info or testing, I will be happy to help. -r Diagnostic output: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cdrecord-prodvd dev=/dev/optical1 -prcap Cdrecord-ProDVD-Clone 2.01.01a01 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jörg Schilling Unlocked features: ProDVD Clone Limited features: This copy of cdrecord is licensed for: private/research/educational_non-commercial_use /opt/cdrecord-prodvd/cdrecord-prodvd.binary: Warning: Running on Linux-2.6.11-ck2-meff2 /opt/cdrecord-prodvd/cdrecord-prodvd.binary: There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5 and newer. /opt/cdrecord-prodvd/cdrecord-prodvd.binary: If you have unexpected problems, please try Linux-2.4 or Solaris. scsidev: '/dev/optical1' devname: '/dev/optical1' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 Warning: Open by 'devname' is unintentional and not supported.

Re: cdrecord-ProDVD key expired?
I saw saw a little note about the format of a request for a permanent key somewhere once, maybe it was in his readme file. You need to specify the operating system and some other things. The main thing you need to specify though is a valid reason why you can't keep using a key that expires. I have requested keys from him numerous times. My reason for the request was that my company is using it for commercial gain. He hasn't replied to any of my recent requests. I did manage to get one permanent key from him several years back. While his license may state non-commercial use he seems to be ok with allowing it to be used commercially. If anyone knows different then please share. --- Ashish Rangole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > Once again, what's the procedure for getting a > *real* (non-expiring) > > key?

cdrecord-ProDVD key expired?
I'm getting the infamous "Alarm clock" error during the countdown when trying to burn with cdrecord-ProDVD. I've got the key from the README file (ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README) which was updated on 2004-01-26... and it's only May. Is this key expired already? Once again, what's the procedure for getting a *real* (non-expiring) key? We'd be willing to buy one for our organization if necessary. We're a deparment within a large but non-profit hospital. We burn data CDs and occasionally DVDs for both doctors and patients. Details: This is an HP-UX 10.20 system. I've burned using this software on this computer with the same hardware many, many time.

In the case of "cdrecord", it was about the fact that there is no support for autosense logic in my particular OS release... as you pointed it in past posts (related bug recently fixed in the development branch). As you may have noticed on another post, I gave a try to -CURRENT and fall with an usable FreeBSD system. I had to restore it completely.

most likely means that your media is poorly supported by your firmware. Then "3/11/05 L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR" doesn't make much sense either... What media is it anyway (see dvd+rw-mediainfo output for Media ID)? Poor media support manifests itself in most bizarre ways. There were reports that DVD-RW media acts as write-once, -twice or three times. In other workds I'd really recommend to test other media brands, preferably explicitly recommended by unit manufacturer, before drawing final conclusions. A. Ok.

Re: Problem using a TEAC DV-W22E with dvd+rw-tools/cdrecord-prodvd/dvdrtools.
most likely means that your media is poorly supported by your firmware. Then "3/11/05 L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR" doesn't make much sense either... What media is it anyway (see dvd+rw-mediainfo output for Media ID)? Poor media support manifests itself in most bizarre ways. There were reports that DVD-RW media acts as write-once, -twice or three times. In other workds I'd really recommend to test other media brands, preferably explicitly recommended by unit manufacturer, before drawing final conclusions. A. Ok. The media I bought are as follow: - TDK DVD-RW single-sided Data/Video 4.7GB 1-2x; - TDK DVD-R single-sided Data/Video 4.7GB 1-4x. Is there anything wrong whith these types of media? Note that I didn't questioned media quality per se [just yet], but this media support by your firmware. New media products are being introduced to market all the time, some might *require* firmware update... Advices? I still stand by "test other media brands before drawing final conclusions." Here are some informations about the report from "dvd+rw-mediainfo". 1/ Two new DVD-RW I tried to blank and which are now _not_usable_ says: /* First one */ Mounted Media: 14h, DVD-RW Sequential no Media ID? :-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h]: /* Second one */ Mounted Media: 14h, DVD-RW Sequential Media ID: TTG01 :-[ READ TRACK INFORMATION failed with SK=3h/ASC=11h/ACQ=05h]: It's first time I observe READ TRACK INFORMATION failing and it's first time I observe 3/11/05 code. TRACK INFORMATION is vital and correspodning command is expected to work and so far was observed to work under *any* circumstances. Failure most likely indicate that PMA, Program Memory Area, is busted. Is it possible that it happened because firmware picked inappropriate laser power for this media? Yes, it's plausible. Note that laser power is purely firmware domain and is beyond OS or application software control... 2/ A new DVD-RW I *never* used says: Mounted Media: 14h, DVD-RW Sequential Media ID: TDK502sakuM3 Are these disks come from same pack? If you can confirm that they come from same pack, then I don't know what to think. Media ID is not supposed to change as result of recording... As for Media ID not being reported for finalized DVD-R. Note that unit reported it as DVD-ROM (see "Mounted Media"). Apparently dvd+rw-mediainfo doesn't pull Media ID in such case (looks like bug, I'll look into it).

Re: Problem using a TEAC DV-W22E with dvd+rw-tools/cdrecord-prodvd/dvdrtools.
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 would call this behavior of dvd+rw-tools a bug as the CAM standard requires auto-sense to work.

I can assure FreeBSD users that dvd+rw-tools won't stop working the moment the kernel bug in question is fixed.

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? Am I missing something? I'm not absolutely sure but I guess only growisofs accounts for the kernel deficiency and not dvd+rw-format. Andy? *All* dvd+rw-tools account for kernel deficiency.

The fact that you see "failed to locate "Quick format" descriptor" alone most likely means that your media is poorly supported by your firmware. Then "3/11/05 L-EC UNCORRECTABLE ERROR" doesn't make much sense either... What media is it anyway (see dvd+rw-mediainfo output for Media ID)? Poor media support manifests itself in most bizarre ways. There were reports that DVD-RW media acts as write-once, -twice or three times. In other workds I'd really recommend to test other media brands, preferably explicitly recommended by unit manufacturer, before drawing final conclusions. A.

Because this is a _release_, and running the -CURRENT (CVS) version seems to me more dangerous than staying with this version. Note that the release may be buggy for some part (as for the point here) but not for others. Other than this particular problem, I'm very happy with this FreeBSD-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).

This can explain why I succeed writing a DVD-R using "growisofs"; but not to put a DVD-RW in the restricted overwrite format, nor change back to the sequential format using "dvd+rw-format". >>> The help here is not easy.

Maybe I will reconsider my position on using the -RELEASE. As I said before: maybe this will resolve this particular problem, but running a -CURRENT has some other disavantages!... :-\ Because this is related to a bug, is it not possible to integrate a patch for this in the security advisories and other critical fixes branch for RELENG_5_2? For the second part of your answer, I already succeed to: - write CD-R (cdrecord); - write/rewrite CD-RW (cdrecord); - write a DVD-R (growisofs). So, as stated by Jörg Schilling in a previous post: "Of course this bug caused cdrecord to fail in nearly all situations. If cdrecord did work with the buggy OS, it was pure luck." Maybe is it some luck, but it seems to run correctly... Thanks, -- -jpeg. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you really mean "emulate ATAPI devices as SCSI ditto via CAM", i.e. the 'device atapicam' in kernel config file: it IS present. I think I already use this _facility_ through cdrecord. As I say, I already write CD-R (cdrecord) / write/rewrite CD-RW (cdrecord) / write DVD-R (growisofs) which all use the device /dev/cd0: CDROM driver for the CAM SCSI subsystem. I use a GENERIC kernel provided with the 5.2.1 release, with just the following support added: ### Added by [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ### For PnP/PCI sound cards. device pcm ### USB com devices. device ucom device uvisor ### Allows ATAPI devices to be accessed through the SCSI subsystem. device atapicam #device scbus # Already present, just here to remember. #device cda # Already present, just here to remember. #device pass# Already present, just here to remember. #device ata # Already present, just here to remember. #device atapicd # Already present, just here to remember. #device da # Direct Access (disks) ### Disk encryption. options GEOM_BDE I can't see any problem here...

Because this is a _release_, and running the -CURRENT (CVS) version seems to me more dangerous than staying with this version. Note that the release may be buggy for some part (as for the point here) but not for others. Other than this particular problem, I'm very happy with this FreeBSD-RELEASE. But I understand your point of view. My question now is: "If I understand why cdrecord-DVD isn't working whith this release; why seems it not working with dvd+rwtools too?" > 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. The notebook, in which there is the DVD writer I want to use, is relatively new... and I never had a DVD writer before. On the other hand, Pav Lucistnik has explained that this was corrected for now, so... > It seems that you did not use cdrecord but dvd+rwtools and for this > reason did not realize your problems early enough... 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).

You should really go to a working version of FreeBSD instead. Note that you'll hit this problem on CD-R too, and dvd+rw-tools don't do CD-R. Can you blank a CD-RW using cdrecord?
