[Pkg-opt-media-team] Bug#615978: Pseudo OverWrite handling is inconvenient ?

[michael]

Hi there,

   the Pseudo Over Write (pow) BD-R feature is causing this behaviour.

The drive is asked, if it is capable to use POW. The nwa (Next Writeable 
Address) will not be used to calculate media capacity if the drive 
reports positive.

   Patch below.

   When the Remaining Blocks for track are calculated, the POW blocks 
won't be counted as writeable, so the remaining blocks are counted 
correctly.

   No strings attached ?

   regards,

     michael
