The version that failed was <= cdrtools-2.01.01a55.tar.gz, with these versions i need to set very low write speed (when i upgraded my DVD writer from PATA to SATA, both LG) Now inform this: "cdrecord: Warning: The DMA speed test has been skipped." http://djgera.pastebin.com/m35195bbe I prefer to use cdrecord, is the soft that i used for 7 years with my previus distribution (Slackware Linux) and as you said, is updated very often. Thanks for the work! :) I take this message to make a consultation, this was one of the major topics of discussion between you and some Linux developers. Does cdrecord: allowing access through dev=/dev/xyz, or as the message says: "Warning: Open by 'devname' is unintentional and not supported". will be removed in future versions?
