Description gnome 2004-09-12 12:55:40 UTC 
burning dvd the speed option shows cd burning speeds and not 
dvd burning speeds. this is wrong. 

with dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/dvd it is possible to get information about the 
supported speed of the dvd medium. this information should be used 
to limit the available speed options.

How do you know whether the user will burn a DVD or a CD before she inserts it
in the drive?
Any better idea on how to solve this?
Comment 2 gnome 2004-09-17 00:51:43 UTC 
#1 the dvd could be in the drive already,
#2 the data to burn is bigger than a cd and its a dvd burner

or an option to select burn to dvd|cd which would change the speed.

This also manifests itself with my 16X DVD Burner - since the CD speeds only go up to 48X and 16X DVD is considerably more than that, it burns at much slower than maximum speed.
when a user selects 'write to disc' it can check the disc type (which it has to do for available space anyway) and then based the speed on this.
