You need to buy a new writer to support the new discs. It's done in
hardware, not software. Also note that standard cd-rom drives that exist
today will not be able to read the media as well.

According to the cdrlabs review the new Double Density CDR-W discs use the
same file system (ISO9660) but the Sony drive narrows the "track pitch"
(from 1.6 to 1.1 micron) and shortens the "pit length" (from 0.833 to 0.623
micron). It uses the same laser wave length but it slows the "scanning
Hi!
I have an Alpha, Teac CD-W58 and a problem.
The problem is, that sometimes the writer seems to hang (for example if I

since. I remember that a while ago (with a much older version of cdrecord)
I could recover similar si
