[Bug 15424] Re: Error while burning DVD-RWs: Input/output error

[Honza Horak]

Just a note from Thomas: Please, consider the answers at the mailing-
list archive above [1] only as quick shots in order to illustrate the
wide variety of listed problems.

Each such report deserves individual inspection as long as the reporter
is still available, can answer questions, and can make experiments.
Thomas offers to care about them, if they are brought to his attention.
E.g. by the cdwrite list.

Title:
  Error while burning DVD-RWs: Input/output error

Status in “cdrkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “dvd+rw-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The error is produced when I put in a blank DVD-RW in my IDE DVD burner, drag
  files to the burn:/// window and click "Write to Disc"
  After the image is created I get a dialoge saying:
  "Error writing to CD -- There was an error writing to the CD: Unhandled error,
  aborting"

  The error details are:
  /dev/hdc: "Current Write Speed" is 2.0x1385KBps.
  :-[ WRITE at LBA=0h failed with SK=5h/ASC=64h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error
  :-( attempt to re-run with -dvd-compat -dvd-compat to engage DAO or apply full
  blanking procedure
  :-( write failed: Input/output error

  The error is only produced when I try burning DVD-RW. DVD-R and CD-RW burning is
  working well. I haven't tried DVD+RW, however my burner does support both
  formats. The error does not depend on whether the DVD has been writen to before
  or not.

  I've also tried burning a DVD-RW using graveman which also doesn't
  work.
