cdrecord dies on CD to CD copy
Hi, I'm using a vanilla CD-Rom + HP CD-R IDE setup through ide-scsi and sg on a Linux 2.4.7 box, and I've noticed the following: when copying to /dev/scd1 (0,1,0) using cdrecord -v dev=0,1,0 -isosize /dev/scd0 At the end of scd0 cdrecord reports an error (can't copy now, but the gist of it was input stream ended) and fails to fixate the disc. Basically, all the data from the CD has been read, but since the reading child dies, I think cdrecord notices it and dies on the spot. I would very much like to hear a report that this works - what happens when the source CD ends? No error message? The CD recorded was, of course, lost. So I attempted (successfuly) to copy using the crude: cat /dev/scd0 | cdrecord -v dev=0,1,0 -waiti - And this worked, though it reported fifo=0% through 99% of the process. Is there a way to do this in a more intelligent fashion? TIA, folks.

Re: Key2Audio
From: Johan Vromans [EMAIL PROTECTED] Currently the newpapers here are writing articles about a new copy protection scheme, Key2Audio, that CD companies seem to be secretly applying to new CDs. They claim it makes CDs uncopyable, and that they even cannot be played on computer CD-ROM drives. Any comments? I did not yet see such a new protected CD. If they are using illegal TOC entries, use Plextor drives. Return the CD to the vendor after making a copy because it carries a Compact-Disk logo but isnt red book compliant. If they have C2 errors on the disk, use Plextor drives, they have interpolation for uncorrectable audio even when doing DAE. Return the disk after making a copy because the disk if junk. (no brand-new CD may have any C2 error at all).

Re: DVD Player not playing music CD-R
From: Trenton D. Adams [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is there different ways of writing a CD-R with music that could cause it not to work in my DVD Player? If so, what types of writing should I try? p.s. I have a Sony DVD player. Since sony owns a couple of Record companies, it might be possible they designed it that way on purpose to prevent copying music and listening to it on the DVD Player. Try different media. In many cases the laser is not compliant and has problems.

Re: Key2Audio
From: Dave Platt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Several interesting questions come to mind: - Are there CD-ROM drives which can already rip these discs accurately, by implementing error concealment on the data sent over the bus interface? I'd be interested to see how well Plextor drives do, as these have an extremely good reputation for ripping quality. Plextor - Will CD-ROM drive vendors upgrade their firmware to add error concealment, or start shipping new models which have it? If so, will the music labels file criminal charges against the drive manufacturers, claiming that such firmware violates the Digital Millennium Copyright Act by creating a copy-protection circumvention device? No comments ;-) Sorry the information from several drive vendors is not intended to become public - Will Philips and/or Sony declare that discs manufactured in this way are violating the Red Book specifications, to the extent that they can no longer use the Compact Disc logos on the disc and packaging? I believe that any customer may go and sue the vendors of such disks. These disks definitely violate the Red book and must not carry the compat disk logo. (at least the try from Bertelsmann last year had a CD logo). In Europe it is no problem to go to a consumer protection organisation and they will for and sue the vendors because the products do not have a promised property.

Re: Key2Audio
From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jul 23 21:44:17 2001 RTFM ;-) Ummm... as of cdrtools 1.11a06, the c2scan option is not documented in the man page for readcd, or any of the other man pages, or in any of the AN* announcement files. The only place it's mentioned, as far as I can tell, is in the readcd --help output. Hence, RTFM is an answer which really doesn't apply in this case, since TFM doesn't have anything to R! Now, you could have said Use the Source, Luke! and it would have applied well enough ;-) And may the source be always with you ... Here is the new part of the man page: -c2scan Scans the whole CD or the range specified by the sectors=range for C2 errors. C2 errors are errors that are uncorrectable after the second stage of the 24/28 + 28/32 Reed Solomon correction system at audio level (2352 bytes sector size). If an audio CD has C2 errors, interpolation is needed to hide the errors. If a data CD has C2 errors, these errors are in most cases corrected by the ECC/EDC code that makes 2352 bytes out of 2048 data bytes. The ECC/EDC code should be able to correct about 100 C2 error bytes per sector. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
