Re: [Cdw-devel] Bugs prior to 0.5 release

[<cdw...@li...>]

13) When selecting "Write Files to Disc" menu option (not write
image to disc), I get the following menu with the latest CVS:

You are writing to DVD disc (More specifically, DVD+RW media)
Writing speed: 2v

Session writing mode:
  Append data, don't close disc
  Start new, appendable disc (appendable is showing as misspelled within vi
  here -- no such word ;-)

Disc writing mode:
  Unspecified (no other options given)


So, I question, isn't there a "closed/make non-appendable" write option for DVD+RW
media?

    cdw_task_set_allowed_modes():626: WARNING: still having problems with
    checking if DVD-RW Restricted or DVD+RW are empty?

Unspecified is the only write mode?

This media looks like 2.4 write capable, so I know the speed is likely correct.


On finish, CDW ejects and then re-inserts the media.  Then ejects stating
"writing has finished" -- funny, no long delays without menus when using growisofs!

Here's another clipping of stderr:
    cdw_burn_disc_dispatcher():252: INFO: dispatching "burn" task to growisofs
    cdw_mkisofs_create_command():180: INFO: iso level string = " -iso-level 3 ", 14

    cdw_burn_disc():166: INFO: burn dispatcher returns CDW_OK

    cdw_disc_resolve_type_label():988: INFO: disc type label resolved as "unknown"
    cdw_disc_resolve():863: WARNING: disc in drive is of type "unknown"


So far, I have written 2.6M to a 4.7G DVD+RW media in both "write file" and
"write image" modes.  Granted, far from stress testing this program, but at
least I know CDW executes without errors. ;-)  ... some quirks -- like the
eject, insert and then eject -- but I think that is due to CDW thinking it has
to verify the write, but then realizes it can't verify (because it's not hooked
in yet).
