Re: CD file copying problem with kernel 2.6

2005-08-18 Thread Antonio Rodriguez
To copy svcds (and vcds) the procedure is different, as outlined below:

1. mkdir limpio
2. cd limpio, then put the svcd in the dvdwriter bay.
3. cdrdao read-cd --paranoia-mode 2 --read-raw --driver generic-mmc --device 
ATAPI:0,1,0 data.toc
4. umount if needed, remove the original svcd from the bay.
5. put a clean CD in the bay
6. cdrdao write --device ATAPI:0,1,0 --driver generic-mmc --overburn --eject 
data.toc

Good luck

See below.

Rather than relying on standard OS utilities the OP should use a
specialized application like vcdimager (vcdxrip) mplayer (option
-dumpstream) or vlc to extract the mpeg data. Cdrdao and CDRecord
(readcd) can clone the VCD itself. I don't know what sort of
trickery Windows uses, but I believe VCDs contain mostly raw data
streams similar to the ones found in audio CDs (which can be made
to appear as files by a clever file browser or burn application).

Hrmmm... what are you using to copy the file under Linux, and what kinds of
failures is it giving?

CD file copying problem with kernel 2.6

2005-08-14 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I dual boot this computer to Debian 3.1 Sarge with kernel 2.6 and Windows 
2000. Some time ago I created some VCDs on the Windows 2000, using
Nero, on a Sony CDRW. Now I tried to copy the video file, named avseq01.dat,
from the VCD, and it fails every time.  I can copy the file easily to Windows 
2000, but with Debian Sarge it fails.   Does anybody have a solution for this 
problem. I don't think it's a CD hardware problem, because I can copy the
files from the CD using Windows 2000. This Debian Sarge, as I said, has
kernel 2.6, and it uses ide-cd, the latest. Also, I can copy relatively small
files from the VCD to linux, but as soon as I try the big ones, say 400 mb,
it fails. Maybe there is a timeout or a buffer setting somewhere that I could
tweak to get this to work. Anybody know?
