|
|
+.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
+\fBdvd+rw\-format\fP is a part of \fBdvd+rw\-tools\fP suite and allows to
|
|
+format virgin DVD+RW or BD\-RE media for the first use or blank already
|
|
+written DVD\-RW.
|
|
+Typical use cases of using \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP is formatting DVD\-RW to
|
|
+make them over\-writable, blanking used DVD\-RW to make them sequentially
|
|
+writable from scratch, formatting BD\-RE and DVD\-RAM with custom
|
|
+spare area sizes or re\-formatting BD\-RE and DVD\-RAM to change their spare
|
|
+size.
|
|
+It is not possible to format CD\-RW by \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP,
|
|
+you can use \fBcdrskin\fP, \fBxorriso\fP or \fBwodim\fP utilities to blank
|
|
+them or cdrwtool to format them instead, see section \fBEXAMPLES\fP.
|
|
+
|
|
+A DVD\-RW accepts two disc modes: the \fISequential Recording\fP
|
|
+and the \fIRestricted Overwrite\fP. If a DVD\-RW medium is in the latter one,
|
|
+it will behave much like DVD+RW.
|
|
+By default DVD\-RW discs are in Sequential Recording mode, but
|
|
+can be put into Restricted Overwrite mode using \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP
|
|
+when no options given.
|
|
+Be aware, that only \-blank=full, which lasts as long as full writing,
|
|
+makes a used sequential DVD\-RW capable of performing multi\-session,
|
|
+while fast blanked DVD\-RW can only do Disk\-At\-Once.
|
|
+
|
|
+Virgin DVD\-RW can be directly written without
|
|
+the need of a formatting operation, however a non\-virgin DVD\-RW in
|
|
+Sequential Recording mode needs to be blanked before writing a new
|
|
+initial session. Since a DVD\-RW medium in the Restricted Overwrite
|
|
+mode behaves much like DVD+RW, it can be written again without prior
|
|
+formatting the media.
|
|
+
|
|
+Virgin BD\-RE and DVD+RW media may be initially formatted prior
|
|
+usage. Any\-time later, \fBgrowisofs\fP program will take care of formatting
|
|
+it automatically whenever appropriate, while further formatting is not
|
|
+recommended, however it is possible.
|
|
+
|
|
+.SH OPTIONS
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.BI \-force[\=full]
|
|
+Perform formatting even if the medium is formatted already. This is not
|
|
+recommended for BD\-RE and DVD+RW media, since they need to be
|
|
+formatted only once. Use \fB\-format=full\fP to perform full (lengthy)
|
|
+reformat in case of DVD\-RAM or (lengthy) Full Certification in case of
|
|
+BD\-RE.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.BI \-lead\-out
|
|
+Relocates the lead\-out next to outermost written sector as well as makes
|
|
+sure there is no virgin surface before it. This can make the medium more
|
|
+compatible with some DVD players. Previously written data is not
|
|
+affected by this operation.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.BI \-blank[\=full]
|
|
+Wipe data from DVD\-RW media. Data on BD\-RE and DVD+RW will we overwritten
|
|
+automatically, so there is no need to blank them explicitly.
|
|
+Use \fB\-blank\=full\fP to change DVD\-RW back to Sequential Recording mode.
|
|
+.TP
|
|
+.BI \-ssa[\=none|default|max|XXXm]
|
|
+Grow, eliminate, reset to default or maximize \fISupplementary Spare Area\fP.
|
|
+
|
|
+.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
+Actual device names vary from one operating system to another. We use
|
|
+\fI/dev/dvd\fP as a collective name or as symbolic link to the actual
|
|
+device if you wish. Under Linux it will most likely be a
|
|
+device such as "/dev/sr0" or "/dev/hda" for older Linux 2.6.
|
|
+
|
|
+To blank a CD\-RW, you have to use another utility, e.g. wodim:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBwodim\fP \fBblank=fast\fP \-immed dev=\fI/dev/cdrom\fP
|
|
+ \fBcdrskin\fP \fBblank=all|fast|as_needed\fP \-immed dev=\fI/dev/cdrom\fP
|
|
+ \fBxorriso\fP \fB\-outdev\fP \fI/dev/cdrom\fP \fB\-blank all|fast|as_needed\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To format CD\-RW, you can use cdrwtool:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBcdrwtool\fP \fB\-d\fP \fI/dev/cdrom\fP \fB\-q\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To blank a DVD\-RW and put in the incremental sequential mode, run:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP \fB\-blank=full\fP \fI/dev/dvd\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To blank a DVD\-RW and put in the Restricted Overwrite mode, run:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP \fB\-force\fP \fI/dev/dvd\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To overwrite data of BD\-RE, DVD+RW, DVD\-RW or DVD\-RAM run:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBgrowisofs\fP \fB\-Z\fP \fI/dev/dvd\fP\=\fI/dev/zero\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To blank a DVD\-RAM, you can use:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBdd\fP if\=\fI/dev/zero\fP of\=\fI/dev/dvd\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+To relocate lead\-out sector, run:
|
|
+
|
|
+ \fBdvd+rw\-format\fP \fB\-lead\-out\fP \fI/dev/dvd\fP
|
|
+
|
|
+.SH NOTES
|
|
+Note that DVD+RW re\-formatting procedure does not substitute for
|
|
+blanking. If you want to nullify the media, e.g. for privacy reasons,
|
|
+do it explicitly with 'growisofs \-Z \fI/dev/dvd\fP\=\fB/dev/zero\fP'.
|
|
+
|
|
+When growisofs "runs into" blank Blu\-ray Disc media or BD\-RE,
|
|
+it gets pre\-formatted with minimal spare area size of 256MB.
