From: Jeff Lia [EMAIL PROTECTED] My next step to check its correctness is to play the dvd directly using xine. On a working iso created with the original mkisofs, I do... xine dvd:/home/liaj/dvd/DVDR/dvdrtools-0.1.5-new/mnt/VIDEO_TS/ and all is well. However with the hacked iso mount

From: Volker Kuhlmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes. Obviously this works only before you've burnt the disk. If you get a disk from someone else, tough. because mkisofs adds a generous amount of padding by default. (300 kB according to 2.01a35's man mkisofs, option -pad) It used to be 30k, which was

I can create a 720MB ISO9660 image with mkisofs and mount it with -o loop just fine. However, after burning it to a DVD+RW, I get an error around the 700MB (after 341360 blocks, to be exact) mark with dd. Just trying to read the files on the disc gives the same I/O error. I'm using the

2004-08-06 Thread Jeff Lia
It is most unlikely that you are able to check correctness using xine because AFAIK xine only reads the data via the filesystem interface and stand alone DVD players usually ignore the underlying filesystem and access the data directly. Are you saying that a stand alone DVD player looks for the

Burning an hfs filesystem without mkisofs

I know about the mkisofs -hfs and -apple option to create an iso/hfs hybrid cd. But can I use cdrecord WITHOUT mkisofs to create a CD with an HFS filesytem? Using Robert Leslie's hfsutils I have created on disk the HFS filesystem image hfs.img. I can mount hfs.img loopback and can read and

Using Robert Leslie's hfsutils I have created on disk the HFS filesystem image hfs.img. I can mount hfs.img loopback and can read and write files to it. Now would a straight cdrecord hfs.img produce a CD that a Macintosh will read as an HFS volume? Why do you ask? I mean, burn it to a
