Re: DVD+RW-Booktype and BTC 1008 Drive

["Dave Woodward" <dave@woodwardmail.com>]

Thanks for the pointer, however I have corrected this and now get the
following error with +RW media

[root@linux dvd+rw-tools-5.19.4.9.7]# ./dvd+rw-booktype -dvd-rom-spec -media
/dev/cdrom1
:-[ BTC_FAh[2] failed with SK=5h/ASC=24h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error
Current media Book Type Field is 92h: DVD+RW specification [revision 2]

Any ideas?

I have also now updated to FW 0657, but this did not make any difference.

Thanks

Dave
