Hi Ai san,

I basically agree to use Profile code to show the hybrid disc structure.
Therefore the table of "1-2. Format-layer type code" should have "Profile
0050h: HD DVD-ROM".

Generating UNIT ATTENTION and New Media Event also is good. But I think
host application should be able to control the UNIT ATTENTION and New Media
Event generation. Therefore "2-1. START STOP UNIT command" function could
be as follows;

      Layer Destination LoEj  Start Power       Operation to
No          Format-layer#                 Condition   be Performed
1     0           0     0     0     0           Stop the disc
2     0           0     0     1     0           Start the disc
3     0           0     1     0     0           Eject the disc
4     0           0     1     1     0           Load the disc
5     1           N     0     1     0           Change the Format-layer
without UNIT ATTENTION
6     1           N     1     1     0           Change the Format-layer
with UNIT ATTENTION
7     0           0     x     x     1h - Fh     Power condition change

Number 5 is the additional function. In this case, drive shall change the
current profile to the specified Format-layer. Drive shall generate
Operational Change Event with Operational Event field "2h Logical unit may
have changed Operational State", Operation Request/Report field "1h Feature
Change". Drive shall not generate UNIT ATTENTION and New Media Event.

The host software that can handle two different Physical Format Layers can
       handle both layers at the same time.
