Thanks for testing.
I will have to look into the various bugs which show up.

To my excuse: i have to do any BD-RE blindly without having
a drive at hand. The idea was to treat a BD-RE mostly like
a DVD-RAM.

It should not have promised that. At least not RAW.
The supposed answer would rather be "TAO SAO".

All overwriteable media are considered "blank" because
one can only deduce from the content where and how much
data is stored on them.

This looks like the media gets partly mistaken for a CD.

Obviously the program steps on its own feet here.

I will try to simulate a BD-RE by disguising a DVD-RAM.
Maybe i can find out where the program gets deviated
from the intended processing path.
As soon as i have a remedy for the found bugs, i will
ask you to test a development tarball.

Thanks again for testing, and sorry for the failure.


Have a nice day :)
