cdrecord syntax

[Johnny Rosenberg]

Trying to burn three files with cdrecord. They are wav files, which
shouldn't matter since I'm burning a DATA CD, not an AUDIO CD.

Here's what I tried:

$ cdrecord -dao dev=/dev/sr0 -data File1.wav File2.wav File3.wav
wodim: Operation not permitted. Warning: Cannot raise RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limits.
Device type : Removable CD-ROM
Version : 5
Response Format: 2
Capabilities :
Vendor_info : 'Optiarc '
Identification : 'DVD RW AD-5540A '
Revision : '2.61'
Device seems to be: Generic mmc2 DVD-R/DVD-RW.
Using generic SCSI-3/mmc CD-R/CD-RW driver (mmc_cdr).
Driver flags : MMC-3 SWABAUDIO BURNFREE
Supported modes: TAO PACKET SAO SAO/R96R RAW/R96R
wodim: Inappropriate audio coding in 'File1.wav'.
$

It's that ”Inappropriate audio coding” message that bothers me. Why does it
even care about the audio coding? I'm trying to burn a DATA cd here. The
file is a 24 bit 44.1 kHz wav file, but that shouldn't matter for a data cd.

So obviously it thinks I'm trying to burn an Audio cd, right? So how to I
force it to burn a Data cd?
