Hello Group, I hate to crosspost, so if this isn't the proper group,

I am using cdbakeoven 1.8.9 on KDE 3.1.4 on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13.
I have an AOPEN CD-RW CRW5224, which is 52x Record 24x Rewrite 52x
Read. This burner worked beautifully in Windows. I have read Andy
McFadden's CD-Recordable FAQ, but can't find an answer to this.

I can't burn faster than 4x

Can anoyne help me solve this issue? A debug dump from the last burn
session I ran is included at the bottom of this msg. This session was
burning an iso file to a CD-RW disk. The disk is an Imation 650MB, 74
Min. If I can tell you anything else, please let me know.

Is the disc HighSpeed or UltraSpeed?

I don't know your software, but somewhere it should report to you what
the ATIP says about the disc's properties. If the logo on the package
does not say HighSpeed or UltraSpeed, the disc won't write faster than
4x. If the ATIP says max speed is 4x, that's the maximum.

Mike,
Please notice in the dumpfile I included with my original post that the ATIP
info from the disk is blank. Or...the data below ATIP info from disk
indicates 4x max. I'll solve this as soon as I can go get a few High-speed
CD-R's.

ATIP info from disk:
Indicated writing power: 5
Reference speed: 2
Is not unrestricted
Is erasable
ATIP start of lead in:**-11635*(97:26/65)
ATIP start of lead out: 337350 (75:00/00)
1T speed low:**0*(reserved*val**0)*1T*speed*high:**4
2T speed low:**8*2T*speed*high:**0*(reserved*val*10)
