cdrdao displays substrate information about for CD-R but not for CD-RW. Would it be possible to display this information for CD-RW too ?
CD-R:
CD-R medium : Doremi Media Co., Ltd.
Long Strategy Type, e.g. Cyanine

CD-RW:
CD-R medium : 97:17:01: unknown vendor ID

    FYI , cdrdao dev moved to https://github.com/cdrdao/cdrdao

    Can you report the ATIP code for that Auchan CD-RW device?

    To answer your question about dye types: organic dye type only applies to CD-R disks. CD-RW disks use a different technology (phase-change alloy layer), which is why the information is not shown.
    However, thanks for your report as it highlighted some bugs/shortcomings in the current code wrt reporting and detecting DVD-R devices. I'll push a patch on github, feel free to build from the main branch and test.
