DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive
Can anybody help me on this one.
I cannot seem to set the bitsetting of a DVD+R disk to DVD-ROM, if there is
anything I can try please let me know, I have seen a previous post about
setting the booktype with a BSD scsi command, but I cannot seem to locate it,
however the output of the dvd+rw-booktype is as follows:
[root@linux ide]# dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom-spec -unit+r /dev/scd1
This program targets units of RICOH, BENQ and BTC designs.
/dev/scd1 doesn't appear to be one. Exiting.
I have recently installed dvd+rw-tools v5.19 as shown by the following command:
[root@linux dvd+rw-tools-5.19.4.9.7]# growisofs -version
* growisofs by <appro@fy.chalmers.se>, version 5.19,
front-ending to mkisofs: mkisofs 2.01a17 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu)
The DVD writer I am using is a BTC 1008 with firmware revision 0557 as shown
by the following command:
[root@linux ide]# scsi_info /dev/scd1
SCSI_ID="0,1,0"
MODEL="DVDRW IDE1008"
FW_REV="0557"
Also here is a dump of the media information:
[root@linux ide]# dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/scd1
