Yes, you heard it.
Burning with USB burners works fine with FryingPan for the Amiga. Just tested it with a CD-R.
Advice:
1) You need MUI 3.8 and the Listview enhancements.
2) Select usbscsi.device and unit number.
3) Very important- select DOS name (mine is CD0).
Gonna try some DVDs tonight.
I have the quietest Amiga 2000 on the market. No SCSI. No moving parts in the hard drive. USB Thumbdrive only.
NOTE: Did manage to boot thumb off of other ports with mix-matching where items are plugged in. Seems to take a LOT longer to boot though if I don't use the one internal port.
Anyone know why CacheCDFS in OS 39 cannot see a mutlisession CD? I installed BoingBag1 and 2 and the problem persists. I only see the first session burned to the CD and not the last one.
I'd go back to AsimCDFS but it does not like usb burners. It keeps ejecting the CD right after seeing it. Can't even use Asim at all in OS 39. Sometimes in OS 31 it works.

:-D awsome dude is this the card that works in the amiga 4000 also
be really got me jelous time to get amiga 4000 working
thanks for sharing this info

You'll probably have trouble with DVD, I think. When I tried my Deneb under OS 4 with a DVD writer, it could read CDs just fine but couldn't read (or write) DVDs. I was trying via a USB2->SATA device, though!
Let us know how it goes!
-
The DENEB usb 2.0 card works in any big box Amiga with a Zorro bus (II or III).
Let you all tonight.
:-)
I am using a usb->ide2.5/ide3.5/sata cable with a Memorex mrx-530l dvd burner.

you have to turn it ON, in SYS:Prefs/CacheCDFS (mutivolume)

Tried the multivolume setting versus multisession setting.
But that was before the boing bags.
I'll try again.
-
probably it works only with atapi.device (not sure anyway).
-
i have a lot of multivolume CDs me too.
I can't get CacheCDFS correctly working under OS4 classic.
Tryed to comment out the CDFileSystem module entry in the kicklayout file and mount a CD0: with CacheCDFS. I can get the CacheCDFS volumes selection window but then it crashes.
Note sure but probably CacheCDFS multivolume option requires atapi.device.
Any suggestion?

Does OS4 have a UDF file system handler? If not, you won't be able to read most DVDs.
-
Thnaks for that info. I've hooked a HP DVD+RW up to my Amiga, but I've never tried to burn anything on it.
Cheers,
Darrin

The thing with CacheCDFS is that it does not have UDF support and also does not support DVDs which have more than 4.3GB of data (this is not a limit of the FileSystem, but of CacheCDFS itself).
Eide99 software from Elbox, manages both happily.

The same SATA DVD+RW drive works perfectly on the internal IDE bus of the 4000 it's on, yes. It's something with the Deneb.
