blu ray burning with samsung se506cb in debian jessie

2016-03-14 Thread Jan Gregor
Hello, does anybody uses this burner in debian jessie ? So far I was succesful with burning to bd-re medium and failed with bd-r medium with i/o error after start of burning - probably caused by default 6x speed compared to 1x speed of bd-re but the drive should have buffer underrun protection.
