----- Original Message ---- From: Kunal Ghosh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This is the second time I am facing this problem. I am unable to copy a file named avseq01.dat (~600MB) from a CD onto my desktop. The error shown is " Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr...vseq01.dat". I have tried with SUSE and Ubuntu. It is a movie file and the movie plays well on both SUSE and Ubuntu.
Finally I could copy it on the same system using WinXP. Earlier I had thought the CD was bad. But this has now happened the second time and with a different CD. Google shows this is a known problem with both SUSE and Ubuntu, any updates anyone - Mandrake / Fedora guys ? _______________________________________________ I am assuming you did the mistake of mounting the VCD under linux - atleast I ruined quite a few copy before I figured out what happened. Basically to copy a VCD you can not copy the file after mounting - they don't have a standard ISO filesystem. Read more here http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/vcd.html As for the solution you could use mplayer with the dumpstream option along with the vcd://<n> where n is each track to grab each track. This is handled transparently in windows which is why you seem to be able to see the filesystem inside the VCD. You could also do a ISO dump of the VCD if you have it completely filled end to end.
