Hello,

My hardware
HP 9210i CDRW connected to a Symbios 875 based card. MY main drive is a Quantum LVD connected to a Symbios 896 based card.
My software
cdrecord 1.11.06 package from os2world.com and Audio CD 0.52
JJSCDROM.DMD dated 10/27/2002
emxrev
EMX : revision = 60
EMXIO : revision = 60
EMXLIBC : revision = 60
EMXLIBCM : revision = 62
EMXLIBCS : revision = 62
EMXWRAP : revision = 60

I can burn single session CDs using either CDRW or CDR media with either the command line or using AudioCD Creator. They work very nicely every time and I am getting good backups. I now want to try to burn multisession CDs. I can burn the first session with either command line using
cdrecord -multi -R dev=1,6,0 whatever.iso
or through AudioCD GUI.

If I use command line, I then issue
cdrecord -msinfo dev=1,6,0 and get back 0,128474 (for example). I then make a second iso image with
mkisofs --R -C0,128474 -M1,6,0 -o isoimage2.iso i:/
the program stops immediately with an error message
An unrecoverable error has occurred. The program is stopped.

If I try to use AudioCD Creator to simply get the size of the second track, it gets the 0,128474 correctly and then opens another window and executes.
mkisofs "-l -D -r -T -hide-joliet-trans-tbl -C0,128474 -M1,6,0 -print-size -path-list "E:\audiocd52\temp\filelist.001" then it starts to list files in the directory
Then I get the error message in the window DosExecPgm () returned 0

The same behavior happens if I use -graft-points in the command line or the AudioCD tab for additional options.

What am I doing wrong? I would really liket o get multisession working also.

I haven't tried the command line prompts, but when I use CDRecord/2 (Audio CD Creator), and use the tools to peform a "blank"ing (killing contents of cd, so I can rewrite), I get it to fail, stating invalid media.

I can use my Windows partition to use Nero to read the multi-session info and I can also use it to blank the disc.

Don't forget to set the setting for the Data Template to use multi-session, instead of the default of single session.

Your emx and cdrtools(cdrecord, mkisofs) are out of date:
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/dev/emx/v0.9d/emxrt.zip
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/mmedia/cd/cd-r/cdrtools2-2.01a27.zip
update your aspi router, anything lower than beta6 is not recommended for use with the latest cdrtools.
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/system/drivers/scsi/aspirb9.zip

if you use IDE, then make sure you also have the latest danis506 and
daniatapi @ hobbes

regards,
