Incompatible mode for drive when burning MDS image

A user reported an error "unsupported write mode" when burning a DL DVD from MDS. The same image burns fine with other applications. Is this a bug that can be fixed? Log attached.

It's not a bug it's a limited support for MDS format. Ask him to stick with industry standard ISO for ripping and burning DVDs. MDS brings no value here.

Hm, in order to display a proper error message, what is the issue? Is the specific MDS image not supported? Or is it a problem with the drive?

It's a combination of parameters stored inside MDS we don't understand. We'll either manage to subscribe full MDS spec from Daemon Tools or will drop MDS completely as it makes less and less sense.

OK. And indeed it would make sense to either support it fully or not at all, otherwise it will be hard to explain to users.

Absolutely!
