I’ve tried that post .. but either I get a new scsi passthrough controller in device manager, but no dvd or the boot in windows hangs
Note that you don't have to add a scsi <controller> if you already have one. You can add the drive to the existing one.
Either that method won’t work anymore or my config is bad .. im not really sure what to put in controller, target, bus and unit ..
So there are two addresses for the <hostdev>. The one under <source> should be set to the address of the CDROM drive on the host. It can be obtained e.g. using lsscsi: # lsscsi [2:0:1:0] disk ATA ST3500418AS CC38 /dev/sda [3:0:0:0] cd/dvd HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0 LN00 /dev/sr0 (so 'scsi_host3'(adapter) and bus='0' target='0' unit='0') The second address <address type='drive> is the address on the VM's bus. <address type='drive' controller='1' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> You set 'controller' to the 'index' attribute of the <controller> you want it to attach to. The 'bus' should be '0'. If you have other devices on the controller, pick an unused 'target' value and 'unit' should be '0'.

Hi Andreas,
This might be of some help:

Unraid also uses KVM ;)

In my xml i have:
<disk type='block' device='cdrom'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source dev='/dev/sr0'/> <target dev='sdb' bus='sata'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> </disk>
In my guest (windows 10) it’s shown as "QEMU QEMU DVD-ROM” .. which of course means I can’t burn.
If anyone has a solution it would be this mailing list
Thanks Andreas
