If I may interject, your command line say to use "dev=0,0,0' the error 
mesage says it tried to use dev=3,0,0. Ide-scsi turns ide controllers 
into scsi controllers. The first number is the scsi bus id, so it appears 
there is a mismatch between what you want to use and what prodvd wants to 
use. Do you have three scsi bus's ? The comand 'cdrecord -scanbus' will 
list the number of bus's and the device locations.
