I'd not expect either to differ from t'other:-)

-dvd-compat won't make a difference.

I was probably using 2.4 with ide-scsi loaded for cdrecord. Device name 
shouldn't make a difference, either i works or it doesn't.

I have used /dev/hdb (which is where I connected my burner); that was 
probably on 2.6.
