CDRECORD

Shouldn’t the dev for the below example be 0,4,0 ???

The tricky part of using cdrecord is finding the dev to use. To find the
proper setting, use the -scanbus flag of cdrecord, which might produce
results like this:

# cdrecord -scanbus

This lists the appropriate dev value for the devices on the list. Locate
your CD burner, and use the three numbers separated by commas as the value
for dev. In this case, the CRW device is 1,5,0, so the appropriate input
would be dev=1,5,0. There are easier ways to specify this value; see
cdrecord(1) for details. That is also the place to look for information on
writing audio tracks, controlling the speed, and other things.
