DVDRW: Please help!
OK, I'm bummed.
I'm the new owner of a Plextor DVDRW- PX708A, which I understood to be the
top-o-the-line of DVD recorders.
I'm running an Athlon 1.5Ghz box with 500Mb of RAM. Sid.
The Plextor is on the 2nd IDE channel, by itself as master.
I've got both cdrecord-prodvd and a patched version of cdrecord: Cdrecord
2.01a16-dvd (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu, extracted via alien).
DVD-RW (don't have any DVD-R's) seems to work fine under linux. However, DVD
+RW/DVD+R discs produce a coaster every time. However, both are "perfect"
when I boot Windows 98 SE. Not that that does me a damn bit of good :(
(I keep Win98 SE for the grandchildren and Harry Potter x twice per year.)
Please help. I'm looking at a +300$ investment with the boss (She Who Must Be
Obeyed) looking over my shoulder.
TIA
Jeff
