Note on the repair test:

The CD-R was trashed by a CDR521, reported as not writeable in a Yamaha CDR 100 and not recognized at all by a Philips CDD 2000. With the Sony the target CD-R window showed one track covering the whole disc and told that "writing was interrupted". After repairing the track was reduced to its real size and the CD-R was writeable again. The track could be read, but not in the CDD 2000, which recognized the CD-R only once.

With the Sony another track could be written and fixation was succesful. Now the CD-R is always recognized by the CDD 2000, too.
