Hi,
I use a pioneer DVR 108 dvd burner (dual layer) and I can not blank a +rw with
xcdroast or cdrecord,as root I get in FC3 xcdroast
"cdrecord.prodvd: Cannot blank with non Ricoh based drive.
cdrecord.prodvd: Cannot blank disk, aborting.
cdrecord.prodvd: Some drives do not support all blank types.
cdrecord.prodvd: Try again with cdrecord blank=all"
What Fedora version are you using? The FC3 cdrecord package supports
dvd+/-rw formatting/blanking. You might try installing FC3 versions of
cdrecord, dvd+rw-tools, mkisofs, etc. Hopefully there won't be too many
dependencies. I suggest this because the version displayed below looks
like a pre-FC3 version number. I have blanked/rewritten a number of DVD
+RW discs using FC2 & FC3. And I have not had the need to install the
prodvd version of cdrecord.
In # 'cdrecord blank=all' I get

Everthing checks out as current FC3 packages and prodvd comes from T.Chung
on Fedora News thats where the copyright comes from,I'll try with removing prodvd.
Thanks david
