I've never used growisofs, but given that it's a mkisofs front-end
I suspect that you may want to change the pathspec from "*" to the
path to the directory that contains the directory structure you want
on the disc.

For example ".", if it's also the current working directory.

For details see mkisofs(8).

Yea I will try that way to see what is wrong, but I hoped maybe
someone had this problem also and found the solution :-)

[dvd+rw-tools-7.1] Failure to burn disks: SK=5h/INVALID ADDRESS FOR WRITE

2012-01-28 Thread Yuri
While burning the DVD+R DL with the command 'growisofs -dvd-compat 
-speed=4 -Z /dev/cd0=$1' on 9.0-STABLE I am getting this error:

:-( write failed: Invalid argument

It failed 3 times.
Size of the iso image is 8407351452.

Device is:  cd0:  Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 
device


I did burn DVDs successfully using the same drive, the same batch of 
empty writable DVDs and the same command on 8.X. I am not sure if this 
is because of 9.0 or because of this specific disk image.


Do you know what may be a problem? Do you burn DVDs successfully?

Are you on 8.x or 9? I think this is due to a known issue [1].

Alexander Motin has patches for 9-CURRENT [2] that fix the issue for
me (and others). He hasn't had time to clean up the patches for
committal to the tree, and the patches may no longer cleanly apply --
I haven't re-patched since my last few updates.

Let us know if the patches work for you.

Try grip if you want a GUI. It will rip all or some tracks and encode to mp3

Use audio/cdparanoia for ripping CDs to wav files, then use cdrecord from the
sysutils/cdrtools port to burn the tracks to CD. With cdrecord you can burn
both data and audio CDs.

You could also add 'driveropts=burnfree' to enable buffer
underrun protection since it's not enabled by default.

I guess you first try to burn something with a different CDR (better
CD-RW in order not to waist), try different speed (set to speed=4 and
see). Both helps locating the problem.

I would also try to use a Linux Live CD so if it also does not work in
Linux, you can suspect more on hardware problems then your FreeBSD setup.

cant burn a cd iso

2009-06-27 Thread Daniel Leal

Hi !

I am trying to burn a iso in my laptop with freebsd 7.2

Installed cdrtools and then kldload atapicam.

Then I looked for the cdrom:
#cdrecord -scanbus

So I try to burn the iso with the comand:

It seams to start correctly, but in the midle gave me the input/output

Long story short, I am trying to set up Brasero to burn CDs. It will not let 
anyone other than root even see the blank CD-R as a destination option since 
non-root users do not have access to burn from the drive. Gnome Does see the 
blank disk and i get associated icon on my desktop

Where do i set who has permissions to burn with the CD drive?

You cannot use growiso with the acd driver, you need the cd
driver which is provided by atapicam facility.

You can simply load it via the kldload command if you don't 
want to rebuild your kernel.

Oh, it seems that you already have the atapicam / cd setting in
your kernel running. Fine! Just change the command:

# growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cd0 -J -R disk1

This should work.

I have a symlink set via /etc/devfs.conf as /dev/dvd@ -> cd0
so I can use the command

% growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=foo.iso

as presented in growisofs's manpage. :-)

Ok, sry for the repeated list spam but I see your error now.

You ignore my first mesg since I do see now that it picks up the dev on

should be:

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cd0 -J -R disk1

not

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/acd0 -J -R disk1

Also a little tip on dmesg stuff.  Generally it's a bit easier for the 
list to read it in text format so it's a couple ways for you to get it 
in that format easily.


A command like dmesg | mail -s "dmesg output" y...@example.com with email 
you the output of dmesg provided basics like internet connectivity and 
sendmail are working.


A command like dmesg > ~/dmesg.log will dump dmesg output to a file 
called dmesg.log  in your home directory.  You can attach it to an 
email, or transfer to somewhere you can via sneakernet, internet, or 
*net.  Might save you a bit of time.

sysutils/stress, in your case:
stress --vm 32 --vm-bytes 512M --cpu 8

will put it into swap, while cpu's are overloaded. Add --hdd 4 to write 4 1GB 
files in parallel, should be a nice test ;)

Test can be run till interrupt or use -t 300 to timeout after 5 minutes.

I need to really heavily test a box with 8 cores and 16GB FBDIM RAM.

make -j
generic kernel

but it won't full load CPUs and RAM

copy GENERIC to 10 other files, do config, and then
make depend;make -j in every directory.

if any kernel won't build - machine is not OK.

while doing this you may do

dd if=/dev/yourdisk of=/dev/null bs=1m
in parallel from each of your disk to check if disk subsystem works fine 
under load




Is there a suitable port for such task?

I'd like to point out that i don't want to measure perfomance. I need to 
really really

heavily load the server up to it's maximum.

If you have xorg+KDE(or GNOME,xfce,etc..), all you have to do is install the 2 
ports above and you will be able to do what you want. Believe me !

k3d is an excellent app. It will burn ANYTHING. Dvds (any kind), Cds (any 
kind), data, audio,vcd,svcd,dvd movies, etc...

An what will this plugin do? Decompress ape files on the fly, right?

If I didn't write previous post clearly: Audio CD standard (Redd Book)
requires certain data format on disc, which ape file is not. Thus, you
can't write ape files on Audio CD.

You can, however, use software which converts ape files into correct
format in an invisible way to you. Do we agree? :)

Yes, he can !

install
/usr/ports/sysutils/k3b

then install
/usr/ports/audio/k3bmonkeyaudioplugin

After that he will be able to drop .ape files directly into an audio project.

No, you can't. Audio CD is a specific format without compression, etc.

Have you read the k3b pkg-message? You can find it in k3b port directory.
It contains detailed step-by-step instructions about how to allow a 
non-privileged user to mount what they need. It works just fine.

Thanks a lot.  You've made me feel like a complete idiot.  :-)

I'll try it tomorrow, but I'm pretty certain that is precisely what my
problem was.  The fact that I didn't think of it is rather embarrassing.



Well don't feel that way yet because I might be wrong and it might be
something else that is causing the problem you are having.   :)


Turns out that wasn't the solution.  I had to kldload atapicam for it to 
work.  Thanks, though.  You reminded me to never forget the simple things.

then, reboot your machine.

As root, you can run the following command to get the SCSI address of
the burner:

# camcontrol devlist

This didnt work for me last time I tried for some reason but I usually
just use burncd anyway.

Yes.  All the commands were typed as root.

Re: Can't burn cds

2007-07-26 Thread Pollywog


I had trouble getting CD burning to work, but the FreeBSD Handbook had the 
info I needed to get it to work.  I had to modify my fstab and in order to 
use k3b, I had to mount the CD on the command line first.  It won't work if 
the CD is not mounted first, it's not as easy as it is in Linux, but it 
works.

The pertinent sections of my fstab:

/dev/acd0   /cdrom  cd9660  ro,noauto   0   0
/dev/cd0  /usr/home/pollywog/cdrom  cd9660  ro,noauto,nodev,nosuid  0  0

I also had to add myself (my username) to the operator group.  To make it more 
convenient, I added an alias in my ~/.bash_aliases:

alias mountcd='mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 ~/cdrom'

Nautilus fails to burn DVD

2007-01-19 Thread Mike McMillan
When right clicking on an .ISO file to burn to my DVD
player I get the error: 

Error writing to disk
There was an error writing to disk:
Unhandled error, aborting

The correct permissions are set, the user can burn a
DVD from the command line by "growisofs -dvd-compat -Z
/dev/cd0=image.iso"  I have not tried burning anything
other than ISOs with nautilus.

The user can mount and view DVDs from inside nautilus.
 If I try and burn the ISO without a blank DVD inside,
nautilus warns me about that, and prompts me to insert
a blank disc.  

I have Gnome 2.16.2 installed from packages, installed
on 1/19/07 by "pkg_add -r gnome2".

How to burn IFO, VOB... files to make a playable DVD

2007-01-14 Thread Carl J

Hi! I ripped the ifo, vob... files from a DVD.
But I don't know what programs to use to burn
them to a DVD-R so that the resulting disc
would be playable on an external player
(assuming the external player accepts DVD-R)

It seems growisofs only takes files or whole-disc-image.
And cdrecord and burncd don't seem right either.

Most of the articles I find on the internet are
either for Windows, or they talk about
converting the VOB into a standalone MPG/AVI.
But I want to preserve the original VOB and menus... etc.
Can anyone help?

Thank you!

- Carl

Cheap DVDs? Old DVD burner firmware? Upgrading your firmware may help a
lot in this case, as it did for me with my cheap media in my Phillips

I did not have alot of time on hand the first time I posted this so
let me go over it again.

The main problem that Kris and I pointed out with using kernel
regression testing tools is that by design the software is trying to
crash the kernel. This is not so great when your testing for hardware
problems.

Solid state electronics will fail predictively and it will often be a
complete failure in such a way that the system won't boot, you have
POST errors, or a card or peripheral device just won't function
correctly. This type of problem is test for before it leaves the
factory. If you had such a problem it would become apparent in
preliminary testing. If you can install FreeBSD and successfully
complete a make buildworld session I'll put money down that you don't
have this type of problem.

This leaves four things to test for: memory, PSU, overheating, and
mechanical failures.

Overheating (and PSU): In a controlled environment overheating
problems are predictable and can be directly measured. The primary
goal is to get all heat producing componets at maximum output all at
the same time and then use a DMM with a thermocouple to proble all the
hot spots. a "make -j4 buildworld" session will stress the CPU,
Chipset, and RAM but it won't stress the disk drives or the video card
GPUs, I don't know how to stress the GPUs (If your you using them for
vector computation). If you have a RAID array you will also need to
find a method[1] to stress this because an 8 disk array can easily
produce just as much heat as the CPU, if not more.

RAM failures: problems with memory are random events. The only sure
fire way to test ram modules without doubt is a hardware based ram
testing device but if you get random buildword failures (use Kris's
-j(N) to maxout main memory) it's a good bet that you have a bad ram
module.

PSU Problems: Like ram failures PSU failures are (semi-)random events
and it's often difficult to tell which problem you have because they
can both produce the same symptoms.  Never skimp on a PSU!... I
just can't understand why people would skimp on the most important
part of a computer, without this device you have no computer and with
a crappy one you have a crappy computer. Always buy the best and
overspec it!  Doing the thermal testing (above) will also
stress the PSU. If you have random reboots when thermal testing and
your system is not overheating you may have a PSU problem.

Mechanical failures (disk problems): Disk problems often have a
bathtub curve[2] failure rate. If a disk has not failed in the first
month of use and you protect it from  overheating and G-force damage
their is a high probability that the drive will hit and surpass it's
MTBF estimate. I stress test all my drive using MHDD32[3]. It has a
simple feature that will perform random seek access tests on the disk
till hell freezes over, or the drive fails. I often just connect the
drive, run the test, and let it do it's thing for a few days. After
this is done I run a complete functional diagnostic  test on the drive
and pop it into the computer if it passes. It's also useful for
producing random wear patterns on disks earmarked for RAID arrays.

[1] Use something like iozone, in ports: benchmarks/iozone,
http://www.iozone.org/
[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve#Bathtub_curve
[3] You can find the MHDD32 utility on the Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD).

This is a bit hardcore, because as you note it sometimes finds kernel
bugs so it's not going to be easy to identify the cause of problems.

forkbombing.  If the system locks it may be a kernel problem, not be a
hardware problem.

Check out UBCD, just type it into google.

a good test of network, motherboard, cpu, memory, and limited hard drive is
to
build world from scratch. if this completes successfully, you can be fairly
sure
everything is working properly.

Doing something like a buildworld -j64 loop (if you have enough
memory, otherwise reduce -j level to avoid swapping) is going to
exercise your system a fair bit.

The motherboard manufacturer's usually have stress tests in their 
diagnostics.  These usually run outside any OS, meaning you boot the 
diagnostics.  Run them for a couple days continuously to show any issues 
that may occur.

I did not try it on 6.0, but it used to work on 4.5.

Yes, it worked well. Thank you for this hint. I didn't find it
in cdrecord(1) on the first sight.

Things like this, however (I had planned to fix just some small details
on my new server this weekend, but got lost in not-working packages/ports)
let me doubt, whether using FreeBSD is still preferrable.

Robert

Any idea, why cdrdao exits with RC=1, but w/o any message?

I haven't tried it, but sysutils/cdrdao supports CD-Text.
You can specify the text info right in its TOC files. Just
have a glance at its manpage.

how do I ... burn an audio CD from .WAV files _and_ add cd-text ?

2005-12-18 Thread user

I have wav files.

The wav files come from cds that did not have cd-text information on them,
so I have no cd-text examples or source files for these wav files.

I want to burn an audio cd with some wav files (I know how to do this with
burncd and cdrecord) BUT I also want to add cd-text to the newly created,
custom audio CD.

cdrecord seems as if it is able to do this, but after a night of
searching, I do not see how to create the file of text necessary to do
this.

I am wondering if anyone out there already does this and could share their
workflow / work-description ?

thanks.

VCD format is 1150 kbit/sec MPEG-1 at 352x288 pixels (PAL) or 352x240
pixels (NTSC).  If the file isn't in this format--and given that it's
an Xvid, that seems unlikely--he won't be able to make a VCD out of
that file without conversion.

I don't think codecs really come into play with VCDs.  They must be
mpeg1 video (and a few other limitations on audio--Google can probably
help find all the specifics.)

No DVD player I know of will accept a "VCD formatted" cd with
mpeg-4-like content.  Some DVD players will play CDs with a standard
ISO filesystem that includes an xvid file, but these are generally the
odd cases.  As stated earlier in the thread, this would require making
an ISO using mkisofs and burning that with burncd.

Unless he has one of these special case players, then he'll almost
certainly have to learn how to use mencoder, as you suggest.

VCD format isn't xvid.  For the most part, anything you burn to a DVD or
CD should be done as an ISO file, especially if you want the CD to
work with other OS's or DVD players :)

Depends on your DVD player and the codecs used for the VCD. If
its encoded right it should, if not then start learning mencoder and the
art of re-encoding. Mencoder comes with mplayer and you should find a mail 
list that caters to that sort of thing if your interested.

What, really?  I haven't been able to find any indication that the VCD
format was nothing more than an xvid AVI file in an iso filesystem.

Figures it would be so painfully simple - that'll play on my DVD
player?

Thanks for the pointer.

How the heck do you burn a VCD?

2005-11-23 Thread Louis LeBlanc
Hey folks.  This may be slightly OT, but I just downloaded the
StarWreck spoof (http://www.starwreck.com), and I'd like to get it
burned to a VCD.  It's in xvid/avi format, and I'm not sure what's the
best way to burn this.  with the following:

burncd -f /dev/acd1 -d vcd star_wreck_in_the_pirkinning_subtitled_xvid.avi

but it doesn't seem to play anywhere - not even my FreeBSD box - which
is the only machine I can get the avi file to play in the first place
(MacOs X & Windoze won't play it).  How's that for FreeBSD being a
better multimedia box?

I have checked the disk, and it *does* appear to have been burned - so
this is a coaster now.  I'm guessing I just didn't understand the
burncd manpage in regards to vcd burning.  I also couldn't find
anything but 'doze and MacOs X commercial software ads on google, even
though I required either "FreeBSD" or "Linux" in my search.

Anyway, I'm really a newbie with this vcd stuff, so a little leg up
would be appreciated.

TIA

Mostly likely burncd won't work with DVD drives at all. I get exactly 
the same error messages with an LG drive. There might be technical 
reasons for this behaviour because DVD writers work in a different way 
than CD writers. This is just an assumption; I don't know exactly.

Not generally, only if you burn in TAO mode.

BTW you can use readcd -c2scan to check the burning quality at
a deeper level and there even is a patch out there to make reading
c1 error pointers possible. Haven't tested it though.

Here's a crummy script I just used to burn and verify a CD, but I've
only tested it with the "cdrecord" setup.  Older versions of it worked
with "burncd" on older OS versions, but I can tell you that the reason
I'm using "cdrecord" is that my manual efforts to do this with
"burncd" on 5.4-RELEASE (and maybe 5.4-STABLE a couple weeks ago)
failed, because I couldn't "dd" a CD burned with "burncd". (IE, I
couldn't sucessfully "dd" /dev/acd0, while I could "dd" /dev/cd0).


did you use bs=2048 when dd'ing from /dev/acd0?

Here's a crummy script I just used to burn and verify a CD, but I've
only tested it with the "cdrecord" setup.  Older versions of it worked
with "burncd" on older OS versions, but I can tell you that the reason
I'm using "cdrecord" is that my manual efforts to do this with
"burncd" on 5.4-RELEASE (and maybe 5.4-STABLE a couple weeks ago)
failed, because I couldn't "dd" a CD burned with "burncd". (IE, I
couldn't sucessfully "dd" /dev/acd0, while I could "dd" /dev/cd0).

(Search this for "diff" to find the "verify".  ISO images generally
get an extra two blocks of something on the CD "for run-out". See
"-isosize" description of "cdrecord" manpage.)
