cdrecord options

Wed Apr 13, 2011 6:46 pm
This can be a rather stupid question, but... how can I use the "driveropts=audiomaster" option of cdrecord in K3b to burn an audio cd?

Thanks

(yes, I have an OLD Yamaha CRW-F1 that supports audio master quality recording :< :< only to burn occasionally audio cd, but never tried under linux)

try in K3b settings -> programs -> user parameters -> cdrecord -> parameters -> add driveropts=audiomaster

Thanks, I tried and it works... at least it doesn't throw any error, don't know how verify if the mode is really used! ;-)

it would have reduced capacity
from the man page:
audiomaster
<nip>in Audio Master mode, the pits on the CD will be written larger then usual so the capacity of the medium is reduced when turning this feature on. A 74 minute CD will only have a capacity of 63 minutes if Audio Master is active and the capacity of a 80 minute CD will be reduced to 68 minutes.

Thanks again... I also found in the debug output at the end of burning "Turning Audio Master Q. R. on", so it's definitely working.
K3B doesn't consider the Audio Master Mode, so the GUI shows always 80 mins capacity.
