cdrecord and pregap

[Alan Pettigrew]

I have a Yamaha SCSI 8424 drive which works well on Mandrake 7.0, kernel
2.2.14.

All audio CDs that I create (with cdrecord) have a 2-sec pregap, which is OK
for most cases, but sometimes I would like to have no gap.

The doc'n talks of defpregap=n and pregap=n, which I have tried, and they
have no effect (it does say TEAC drives only).

Is there any way to record audio without a gap between tracks?

I hope someone can help.

Alan

The solution is to switch to a more flexible program -- I recommend cdrdao,
which you can get from http://www.ping.de/sites/daneb/cdrdao.html.

This gives you much more control over your audio discs than cdrecord ever
did.

If you use the "-dao" option (this may require a recent version of cdrecord),
there should be no gaps. Alternatively, you can use cdrdao instead of
cdrecord.
