It does that for a reason. > Well, the reason appears to be that cdrecord is not available in Fedora unless you install it yourself, Fedora has chosen to take the respected cdrecord name and put wodim in its place. This seems to me as ethical as selling replica Rolex watches, the user get something other than what they expect. Real cdrecord seems to work correctly for Blu-Ray, and user would be far better served by not having any cdrecord in a Fedora system at all, and letting rpmfusion provide the real thing. I would not be unhappy without cdrecord, I can supply it. Having a program pretending to be cdrecord which doesn't do Blu-Ray and seems not to do SVCD (I only tried a few, the files worked with real cdrecord) correctly. No, not much demand for SVCD. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
