Hi,
I got a new external dvd burner from LG (GSA-5163D) and want to use this device for backup purposes. Therefore I tried to use the standard blockdevice (for me it's /dev/sr0) and created a new udf filesystem on a blank dvd-ram. But the writing performance can't be called performance because writing speed is 150 kb/s. Therefore I've tried to use the pktcdvd driver to improve writing performance but I didn't get it working with my device. I did some debuging but I've reached a point where I don't know what I have to do now. So weird I'm using the same kernel on gentoo too, and pktcdvd goes fine, with my external case, anyway I guess is not related to pktcdvd is your drive, cause I can write on +rw 4X -> 1.5 ~ 2.0 MB/s and is a very good data rate. Why you do not try with a +rw media instead of dvd+ram?
