ProDVD & BAO

[DSP8000]

Hi !
Just recently I found out that burnatonce supports DVD writing in combination with ProDVD.
I'm waiting for the licence key(which is free) but in the meantime I'd like to know if someone had good results with this combination.
Curently I'm using just DVD Decrypter & ImgTools.

@alexnoe
what is your opinion on this, quality,stability,DL burning

Kind regards

Looks like it's now using cdrecord-prodvd for dvd support. I can tell you that I've used cdrecord-prodvd for quite a few burns under linux and found it to be very stable, I've had no problems; although this might not translate directly to similar performance under windows.

Yes Kpex, that's the one cdrecord-prodvd-2.01a23-2-i686-pc-cygwin.
I'm stil waiting for the licence key, how long does it take to get one?
I'm following the mail template on bao forums but no response so far.
I've send the request last night.

Ok, this explains:

-A reply to the incoming mail is usually send once a week. If I am on
holidays or on a business travel, it may take even longer.

-If you send more than one such mail per day, you will get no reply.

-If your mail canot be automatically replied to you, or if
sending a reply to the address you send the mail from does
not work, you will never receive a key.

-If your mail contains HTML code, you will get no reply.

-If your mail contains attachements, you will get no reply.

-If your mail contains non plain text, you will get no reply.

-If your mail contains noreal name, you will get no reply.

-If your mail is send from a fake account, you will get no reply.

-If you ask for a free key for one of the platforms supported
in the free key and don't include a good reason why you can't
live with the free key, you get no reply.

To be more explicit, if you like a free key for _Linux_ you will
need a very goot reason, as Linux is in the list of operating
systems covered by the free key.

-If you like to have a key for a Platform that is in the
Platform list in the free key you should have a reason (such as
running on a submarine without internet access).
If you like to have a key for a Platform that is not in the
Platform list of the free key, name your Platform and the reason.

-If you don't include Platform and reason, you will get no reply.

The next version of cdrecord-prodvd will support DVD+R DL writing. The currently available ones don't.

The speed selection doesn't work on Pioneer A08 and NEC 3500, but the problem is that those drives don't return the available speed settings in a way cdrecord-prodvd likes, so it sends a bad command when trying to set the recording speed. I have made an ASPI spy dll which replaces that speed setting command with a working one :D (for windows)

I've asked the key one month ago... with no answer.
And I think I've respected all the rules listed.
Probably I'll live without it.

Ya, I'm waiting too, but somehow these "mail requirements" are too demanding for piece of software that it's not up to scratch.
I guess I'll stick with ImgTools & DVD Decrypter.
So far no probs.
