Subject:   Writing DVDs under OS/2 using DVDDAO

If any of you have recently downloaded DVDDAO v 0.02 to try
to write DVDs under OS/2,
here's my findings:

 The progam is quick ! It writes at over 5MB/s to my Pioneer
DVR-105D, one major problem however - when it completes
writing, it does not close (fixate) the disk properly. The
readme lists the problem that the program produces an error
to say it has failed closing but states that one can ignore
the error message as the disc has been closed. In my tests
this is not the case.

 For a version 0.0.2 I guess it's doing pretty well but
until it can create readable CDs, it usefulness is hard to
see.

I have only tried on DVD-R disks so far, it may be that
DVD-RWs are better.

Cheers/2

Ed.
