I hardly use optical media these days. But I happen to find an old Philips DVD+RW disk in a drawer. I used the cdrecord -v blank=all command on it and it worked just fine. I didn't save the output it created but there was a HINT telling me I really should be using the dvd+rw-format command.
Perhaps this depends on the types of drive or media. I used 'cdrecord -v blank=all' on two different DVD+RW brands and got error outputs similar to the op's, whereas the same command erased a CD-RW just fine.
Yes, well the error was....
This drive *OR* media does not support the 'BLANK media' command
Yes, that was cdrecord's output message.
But as I said, the 100 DVD box of Sony dvd/rw media
said loudly "RW".
So, I do not really know why cdrecord says what it does.
