Re: solaris cdrecord BH08LS20 drive BD-R problems

> Do you still have problems with cdrecord on Solaris ?
Thank you for asking Jörg. Today I made some progress.
Sorry I have not had time to look at the USB driver bug.

Previously I was using the JMicron JM20336 USB-SATA bridge.
Now I have the JM20329, apparently a simpler (and slower) chip.
The BH08LS20 drive connected via USB 2.0, using blank BD-R disc.

Now I no longer get the I/O errors for cdrecord -atip (or -v -minfo).
However, even though cdrecord -atip shows that the disc is blank,
when I try to burn, cdrecord gives "capacity is unknown" message.

Please advise me what to try next.
Here is the output from the attempt to burn image to BD-R.
Below that is the output from -v -checkdrive.

# cdrecord -v dev=5,0,0 speed=2 driveropts=burnfree image.iso
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Assuming -sao mode.
cdrecord: If your drive does not accept -sao, try -tao.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive dependent
defaults.
