David, could you tell me the media type or Profile number of the media.
The Incremental Streaming Writable Feature Descriptor says that BUFE bit of
Write Parameter Mode page does not work. Appropriate Link size is 0. Then
loss
less link is possible during streaming write.

$B7oL>(B:  Incremental Streaming Writable (0021h) Version 2?
Hello,
I'm looking at the Incremental Streaming Writable Feature Descriptor output
as
reported from a DVD drive:
byte 0: 00 21
byte 2: 09	  Ver 2, current
byte 3: 08
byte 4: 01 00		no meaning for DVD
byte 6: 00	  no BUFE
byte 7: 01	  1 link size
byte 8: 00	  size is 0
byte 9: 01 10 00	Padding
It doesn't seem to match up with the version 1 and version 3 descriptor
format
since I know the device supports BUF (writing can fail if BUFE not set in
write
parameters) and that 01 10 seems like it should be the number of links and
link
size field.
Is there some missing version 2 that is an odd ball format or does the drive
just seemed whacked?  If not, then I guess BUF is worthless and I should just
set BUFE in the write parameters regardless if what the feature descriptors
say?
