DVD/CDRW Everything works except I can't burn to a blank disc
The DVD/CDRW will play DVD, audio CD, read data cds, and write a cd to a file folder. However when I try to copy from the file to a blank cd, Xcdroast tells me that I need to insert a blank cd. When I insert the cd, it doesn't recognize it.
This is on a Toshiba DVD/CDRW installed on an IBM T40 laptop. When I opened the terminal and typed cdrecord -scanbus I got the following: Cdrecord-Clone 2.01a19 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2003 J�rg Schilling Linux sg driver version: 3.1.25 Using libscg version 'schily-0.7' cdrecord: Warning: using inofficial libscg transport code version (schily - Red Hat-scsi-linux-sg.c-1.75-RH '@(#)scsi-linux-sg.c 1.75 02/10/21 Copyright 1997 J.

make an iso out of anything with mkisofs, then try cdrecord dev=0,0,0 /path/to/iso
give us the error message |
Thanks for your reply. I'm still working on resolving this, however the following messages were obtained:

the problem is xcdroast is using the wrong device:
0,0,0 0) 'TOSHIBA ' 'DVD-ROM SD-R9012' '1121' Removable CD-ROM is your drive, scsi bus 0,0,0 Calling: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDRECORD dev= "1,0,0" gracetime=2 fs=4096k -v -useinfo speed=16 -dao -eject -pad -audio "/home/nick/CD_stuff/track-01.wav" ... dev=1,0,0 it is not using the right drive. configure xcdroast, the confioguration hould let you choose a drive. unless the removable device on 1,0,0 is the buner, but if it is then it is not being recognised as a cd-burner, is it by chance a dvd-ram? a -ram is recognised as a slow harddrive rather than a burner device. |
Thanks again as I plan on working some more on resolving this within the next few days. After it is configured correctly, I'll post the fix. :study:
