Subject: DVD burning problems on TS-H552 -> solved with firmware upgrade...
Date: Sat, 23 Apr 2005 18:46:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5a4c581d0504230946a20f3c8@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

A while ago I reported problems on lkml and cdwrite about
 burning DVDs with my Samsung TS-H552 drive:

http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2004/12/msg00088.html
 and
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0501.2/2162.html

After resorting to installing Windows XP and seeing that
 I was able to successfully burn 2 DVDs with Pinnacle
 Instant CD-DVD - even reading video data from my ext3
 partitions via ext2fsd (http://ext2fsd.sourceforge.net),
 I decided to see whether any firmware updates for my
 drive were available.

I'm pleased to say that after flashing the TS08 firmware
 update (from TS03), I burned a dozen DVDs, video and
 data, Memorex +R and +RW and Verbatim +Rs with a
 100% success rate and 100% md5sum correctness.
The resulting discs play perfectly in my Sony LS755P
 standalone player.

Burning CDR and CDRW still works fine as ever. This is
 my same FC3 box, K7-800/256MB RAM, bittorrenting
 away during burns under a 2.6.12-rc2 kernel.


Thanks everyone for the support and patience :)
