Recording this stuff is basically sending some commands to a device and then keeping a FIFO full until done. If `cdrecord` doesn't do it, one can hack together something that works in a day or so,... really good stuff in a week. Maybe it's time to ...... anyway ..... the device characteristics should be kept in an ASCII text file so the software doesn't have to be re-written everytime a new CD recorder becomes available. Maybe the `cdrecord` author needs some competition. This sounds like a good beginner's project.... Cheers, Dick Johnson Penguin : Linux version 2.4.26 on an i686 machine (5570.56 BogoMips).
