Hi.
Whenever I try to burn a CD with cdrecord, the recording speed is incredibly higher than the specified speed, and the recording fails.
My recorder is SONY CRX175E2; I have cdrtools-2.0.1-alpha05 (but I have tried the same with previous versions), and cdrdao-1.1.7-r1.
Please, help me if you can. I have searched information on the web, but I haven't got nothing useful. :cry:

how are you trying to burn the cd?
have you tried
Code:
cdrecord -v speed=<speed> dev=<device> driveropts=burnfree

where <speed> is an integer and <device> is in the form x,y,z that corresponds to the output of cdrecord -scanbus for your writer?

Yes. I know, at least a bit, how to use cdrecord. I've not tried with this driver option, but i'll do it.
A month ago, I recorded some cds with cdrecord in RedHat without any problems.
Thank you. Namarië.

Ok, I've tried it. The burning process doesn't fails (at least in dummy mode), but the speed isn't the desired.
When I don't add the option burnfree, the result is the following:
