Hi all,
I noticed that the newest release includes the cdrecord replacement wodim.  This is nice because I'm sort of stuck when I want record DVD's.  Here is the issue:  
I'm on Vista Ult.  A version of cdrecord that I built myself back when Dinosaurs ruled the earth (WDRE) runs great,  but doesn't recognize DVD's.  On the REAL (old cdrecord)  I identify my cdrom as follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/share/doc/cdrkit-1.1.7.1> /usr/local/cdrecord/cdrecord 
-scanbus

Indicating that I have a DVD drive on fake scsi port 2,0,0...  All is wonderful

But on wodim:

End of story.  I tried wodim dev=2,0,0 -v /tmp/cdimage

Not recognized

  

Could not reproduce this on either XP or Vista.


wodim dev=/dev/scd0 -v /tmp/cdimage

Nothing useful
( I CAN dd from this dev )

wodim dev=e: -v /tmp/cdimage

And it laughed at me.

  

Cygwin /dev/scdX devices are not supported by cdrkit, but drive letters 
X: should work and work for me.


Is there a non-obvious syntax error here?  I tried various permutations using things like dev=ASPI:... etc based on the wodim --devices and dev=help...  But got nowhere.  It indicates on the man page that 

  

Syntax is OK. I sent this problem report to cdrkit developer mailing 
list (http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debburn-devel)
