Cannot burn CDs on blu ray writer

Philipp Krüger — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 06:58:40 -0000

I seem to be unable to burn CDs using cdrdao with my new LG blu ray drive (yes, I am sure it is a burner ;-) ) and I was wondering whether this might be because blu ray drives in general or my LG GGW-H20L in specific are not supported. I checked out and compiled the latest cvs-version but to no avail - it just won't burn anything. Please contact me if you think this issue might be related to cdrdao (because I am able to burn CDs with Cyberlink InstantBurn e.g.) so that I can help in providing more specific and verbose information. I am best reached via zyrill@jabber.org or via mailto://zyrill@gmx.ch

cdrdao hangs on read

alleyoopster — Mon, 23 Oct 2006 09:37:56 -0000

Hi,

I am getting problems with cdrdao locking up with a
particular device. I have isolated the device and
checked cabling and hardware settings. I can only put
if down to firmware, but I believe that is the latest.
Here is the problem:

cdrdao read-cd or cdrdao read-toc cause complete lock
up of system.

Reproducible: Always

Ver 1.2.1 and 1.2.2
last output:
libscg ver schily-0.8
SCSI-3/MMS Version 2 Option 0x0000

Hardware:
Benq LS DW1655 rev BCIB
Software:
Linux 2.6.17-10
Dist: Ubuntu 6.10 edgy

Dan

"...behind or at track end" messages

Anonymous — Mon, 21 Aug 2006 21:43:41 -0000

Somewhere between 1.1.9 and 1.2.1 a bug (?) was
introduced causing cue-sheets with pre-gaps or index
marks to fail with the above mentioned messages.

I can not find anything in the release notes concerning
a modified behaviour, same cue-sheet works with 1.1.9
flawlessly.

Example:
CD_DA
TRACK AUDIO
SILENCE 00:02:00
START
FILE "1_b.wav" 00:00:00
INDEX 2:34:38

(1_b.wav being 2:40) results in
Cdrdao version 1.2.1 - (C) Andreas Mueller
<andreas@daneb.de>
SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling
Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty

Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for
current driver tables.

ERROR: test3.cda:4: START 00:02:00 behind or at track
end.

ERROR: test3.cda:6: Index beyond track end.

P-Q subschannel support ?

Anonymous — Wed, 08 Jun 2005 01:34:07 -0000

In the cdrdao documentation the generic-mmc-raw driver
is described as a driver that besides the music data
needs to specify the P-Q subchannel data... But since
the cdrdao changelog(1.1.6) states that only the R-W
subs can be written and read, how can the raw driver
then specify the P-Q subs when burning? Or does the raw
driver just burn the raw 2352 bytes sectors, and lets
the drive itself generate the P-Q subs ? Or can cdrdao
burn the P-Q subs, but only packed and not raw ? and
does the raw driver use raw-dao or raw-sao ? And
finally.. Is the burning quality with the
generic-mmc-raw driver the same as the generic-mmc
driver ? Thanks in advance. -Martin.

cdrdao 1.2.0 aborting when trying to write - no error given

Phil Reynolds — Sat, 14 May 2005 10:35:07 -0000

I am running Debian sarge, and have locally compiled
cdrdao-1.2.0 with all features enabled.

However, when I try to write a CD from gcdmaster, the
progress window states "aborted with error". When I try
from the command line, the normal software startup
lines confirming the version and so on appear, but then
the command prompt reappears without any writing
happening, and no error message appears.

The only way I can actually write a CD is to install
cdrdao-1.1.9 from Debian, and there is no gcdmaster or,
to the best of my knowledge, mp3 support available,

Is this something I have done wrong or is there an
actual problem with cdrdao-1.2.0?

In case it makes a difference, I use xstow to manage
local packages.

error copying audo cd's

creed — Tue, 30 Nov 2004 21:32:21 -0000

I'm using cdrdao 1.1.9...

I tried to copy an audio disc with something like:

cdrdao read-cd --device /dev/cdrom --buffers 64
--driver generic-mmc
--read-raw toc-file.toc

and

cdrdao write --device /dev/cdrom --buffers 64 --driver
generic-mmc
toc-file.toc

But the copy isn't exactly like the original... If you
want to take a look I
put the effect here:

http://mail.tarchomin.pl/~creed/cdda.copy.mp3

and it should sound like this:

http://mail.tarchomin.pl/~creed/cdda.orig.mp3

[i can supply wav files too, of course]

Well, I'm rather sure it's not the problem of reading
cd, since wav's made by
cdparanoia are just fine. But I cannot be 100% sure
that cdrdao is reading OK
too since I don't know the method to "play" *.bin files...

My CD-recorder is like this:
Vendor_info : 'LG '
Identifikation : 'CD-RW CED-8080B '
Revision : '1.06'

If you need any other information - please tell me which...

Thank you for your time

Error setting RT scheduling priority

Anonymous — Wed, 24 Nov 2004 17:51:22 -0000

dao/dao.c calls setRealTimeScheduling to set the reader
to priority=4 and the writer to 5.

dao/port.cc, POSIX scheduling section, *subtracts* this
from sched_get_priority_max(SCHED_RR). But RT
priorities are, unlike nice, bigger number = higher
priority.

I believe this is why cdrdao turns my asterisk into a
gibbering idiot.

No patch - the fix should be obvious and trivial :-).
Even better would be an option so the RT priority could
be changed. Mind you, I could make the same request of
asterisk...

win32 (ASPI installed ok), scanbus returns no drives

harker — Mon, 25 Oct 2004 02:10:21 -0000

Hi,

Just having a problem with cdrdao for windows.

Basically if I do a scanbus nothing comes up.

I checked and reinstalled dthe lastes version of ASPI
just in case that was the problem. I know that when I
had linux on that machine, the scanbus worked for
cdrdao.

In addition, I downloaded burnatonce to see if it worked,
and it does detect my drive. Not sure if it uses cdrdao's
scanbus or it's own. Just thought it may help with my
problem.

My CD is a Sony CRX140E. I am runing in Win2000.

Any help would be appreciated

Regards

Steve

Intermittent buzz sound when recording WAV file

Anonymous — Tue, 05 Oct 2004 18:04:29 -0000

I am attempting to record a DAO Audio CD using cdrdao
(latest version).

My drive is a Pioneer DVR107D

Here is the command I run:
cdrdao write --driver generic-mmc --speed 4 master.toc

Even though I specify a speed of 4X it still says:

Cdrdao version 1.1.9 - (C) Andreas Mueller
<andreas@daneb.de>
SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling
Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty

Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for
current driver tables.

Using libscg version 'schily-0.8'

/dev/cdrecorder: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-107D Rev: 1.10
Using driver: Generic SCSI-3/MMC - Version 2.0 (options
0x0000)

Burning entire 74 mins disc.
Starting write at speed 10...
Pausing 10 seconds - hit CTRL-C to abort.

Why is it saying speed 10 if i told it to record at
speed 4?

This is really frustrating, as I am trying to prepare a
gift for someone by making a CD of a live recording.

The recorded WAV file is:
Sample rate: 44.1Khz
Bit: 16 Bit
Channels: 2

When I burn the disc, it seems to burn without buffer
underruns, but when I play it back in my CD Player, I
hear the music, but then an intermittent BUZZ cuts in
and out over the music.

What gives?

I would appreciate any suggestions or help. I'm
desperate to get this project done on time.

Thanks!

- John
