Hey, I found it! Is not the drive limits as I have used my drive to write at very low speeds in the past (not because better recordings but just to avoid annoying drive noise). It's medium limits: writable DVD and CD have a minimum write speed, and software will refuse to select slower speeds. Try this (with the blank medium loaded in the drive): for DVD: dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/dvd1 for CD: wodim -prcap Ken, it is very likely that 8x is already the slowest that you can get with those CD, I'm afraid. ----- End forwarded message ----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
