Ahum. SATA as SCSI. (I got ide-scsi. History is cyclic.)

But /dev/sr* is not a traditional device address for
Linux sg commands.

Maybe you should try  dev=1,0,0  instead.

There seems to be a bug with wodim --devices
so that you do not see /dev/sgN addresses.
(Bug report to be posted next.)
I guess your burner is /dev/sg1 . You may
compare the output of
  cat /proc/scsi/scsi
to find the number. The first entry is sg0,
the second one sg1, and so on.

So before giving up, i'd try something like
  dev=/dev/sg1

And i would look in the output of
  cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info
wether plausible capabilities are listed.


Have a nice day :)
