I tried cdrecord-prodvd from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD and it seems to write to my lg gsa-4167 ..
However, a I noticed a few problems:1. The software reports Drive buf size : 1114112 = 1088 KB, but the drive actually has 2MB buffer
2. When writing starts, the software says, "Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 8 ...", but during writing, the reported speed ranges between 1.0x and 2.1x - maybe this is because the drive buffer is too small and frequently drops below 10% full?
