Listen Jorg. I am not responsible if you had a bad day. So stop being rude. And don't make such assumptions, about the features I would like to see in cdrecord. That was not my point and you know it. I was just reporting general issues that I could have with my new drive. Here you try to put some fault on me. Useless ? Maybe not for everybody. The K3b team found it useful, on the contrary.Wouldn't it be much more polite to just tell us what you like instead of starting a useless thread on an unmaintained patch on cdrrecord?
Understand that people are reluctant of supporting a proprietary, closed-source product. You made an excellent work with cdrecord, but I don't fancy taking time for helping a closed-source product, when at the same time other people, like Warly, write GPL code for this task. Sorry but this is a loss of time and efforts. You complain you don't have time because of OpenSolaris, but on the other hand you don't accpet other people, like warly, would help. This is crazy.I am in contact with Alexander and I already have code and I already did integrate GigaRec into cdrecord. Support for other Plextor specific features in in the queue for a long time and will definitely appear soon. If people would _help_ with my projects instead of starting flame wars, things could look different. But unfortunately today, people just sit and wait for new OS software to arrive for them instead of understaning the Open Source model and helping with what they can do.
So once again, READ posts before being rude, insulting people, and accuse them of not reading man pages when it is not the case.
There is a lot of work to do and people (even those who are unable to program) could help alot if they just like.It is what I tried to do. The answer I got was "don't expect to get help here". I was told I was not using cdrecord-prodvd, whereas I reported several times the output of it. I don't know if a lot of people would have my patience to explain and explain again their problem. And finally, you agreed that there was a problem...
Have a good week-end, Eric
