[Debburn-devel] DATACE 8X DVD Burns at 0.1x speed

Use growisofs instead.  Surprisingly, growisofs uses a more up to
date media manufacturer entry list and knows about DATACE dvd's and
the write speed is optimal.

Question:  Why is it that the media manufacturer entry list is not
as up-to-date in wodim?  Shouldn't they be using the same source base?

#!/bin/bash
# If for some reason it fails to fixate,
# as a last resort you can fixate the dvd with
# wodim -force -fix dev=0,0,0 speed=2

# rumor has it the following helps
# to make the dvd writing speed optimal
# In /etc/hdparm.conf add:
# /dev/scd0 {
#         dma = on
#         defect_mana = on
#         lookahead = on
#         cd_speed = 48
#         write_cache = on
# }

# this wodim command is painfully
# burning at 0.1x when using
# DATACE.com 8x DVD-R
# wodim -force dev=/dev/scd0 fs=14M speed=8 -dao -eject -overburn -v
blah.iso

# Surprisingly, growisofs uses a more up to date
# media manufacturer entry list and knows about DATACE dvd's
# the write speed is optimal.
# Conclusion:  Use growisofs instead of wodim when using DATACE dvds.
# growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/scd0=blah.iso

# I had some SUDO errors so used the man page NOTES recommendation.
unset SUDO_COMMAND
export MKISOFS=/usr/bin/mkisofs
exec /usr/bin/growisofs "$@"


./mygrowisofs.sh -dvd-compat -Z /dev/scd0=blah.iso


That's all.  I hope it helps those that experienced very slow
burning speeds or errors while burning DATACE dvd's.
