[Pkg-libburnia-devel] Bug#789260: libburn4: Incompatibility with Plextor PX-608CU burner

[Thomas Schmitt]

Hi,

i forgot to mention

  libburn-1.X.Y/cdrskin/README

which explains production of statically linked cdrskin,
and especially shell command

   cdrskin/cdrskin -version 

which states the version of libburn in use. E.g.:

  cdrskin 1.3.2 : limited cdrecord compatibility wrapper for libburn
  Cdrecord 2.01-Emulation Copyright (C) 2006-2013, see libburnia-project.org
  System adapter    :  internal GNU/Linux SG_IO adapter sg-linux
  libburn interface :  1.3.2
  libburn in use    :  1.3.2
  cdrskin version   :  1.3.2
  Version timestamp :  2013.08.07.093001
  Build timestamp   :  -none-given-


Further, there is a system adapter which uses libcdio >= 0.83
instead of directly using ioctl(SG_IO). (You need package
libcdio-dev for the header files at compile time.)

  make clean
  ./configure --enable-libcdio
  make
  cdrskin/compile_cdrskin.sh
  cdrskin/cdrskin -version

should then report something like

  System adapter    :  sg-libcdio h83 with libcdio 0.83 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Same higher levels, different transport level. Worth a try.
libcdio itself uses ioctl(SG_IO), of course.


Have a nice day :)
