[SOLVED] I need a help so I can get a image from a CD

John Egbert · 2022-12-10 18:03:14

Going straight to the point:

- I'm using GNOME, if that helps
- When I insert the CD, so that i pick a certain image
- I see, instead of seeing like... all of the images stored in the CD in question, a bunch of .dlls
- I know that this ain't 2009 but i need help
- I just need to know what should I do

Going straight to the point

you can say so, but that doesn't make it true.

What kind of "images"?
Pictures?
Disk images?
What created them?
Or are you talking about a multi-session disc? What burned it?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_f … %80%93E)#D doesn't know the suffix, does

file /path/to/some/file.ddl

hint at its nature?

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 00:30:39

Pictures.... Like jpegs.
(Sorry for the late answer, doing stuff)

According to a random web search, ddl is a Data Definition Language used to define a database. It also looks as if it is probably a plain text file. If the extension is accurate, it isn't an image.

What is that specific CD? Some Photo-Disc from the 90ies?
Did you "ls -aR" it?

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 13:02:00

I think so, the guy that gave it to me said it was used on his workplace to store the patient x-rays.
And no, I didn't try ls -aR, thanks!

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 13:24:22

Shoot, I said something wrong: there are a bunch of .dll files, not .ddl files.

nl6720 · 2022-12-11 13:29:27

X-ray and other such images are read with special software. These CDs usually contain Windows software to view the images, that's where the DLL files come from.
You could try finding out what is the name of the Windows software on the CD and see if there is a Linux version of it.

Slithery · 2022-12-11 13:57:45

Pleas post the output of the file command that you've been asked for a couple of times now.

seth · 2022-12-11 14:04:53

"file" on the dll will be less promising, a common format is DICOM and there're a bunch of related tools in the aur, but iirc (don't have one here, can't look) imagemagick has at least rudimentary support as well.

Ideally we'd see the file tree, these things are horrendously proprietary and it's hard enough to even figure what's in front of you (except for the windows binary)

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 14:16:17

The output from the command ls -aR is:

There're your images.

Trilby · 2022-12-11 14:38:36

I was going to say these are most likely DICOM images even before you posted the listing. The listing confirms this. Sidenote: you did see where you were told to use code tags, right? Please edit your last post to do so.

You need a DICOM viewer. There are quite a few options in the AUR. But why on earth do you have confidential patient data from someone else's workplace? That may be illegal, and is most definitely unethical.

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 14:38:48

And it's resolved, sorry for the trouble.

John Egbert · 2022-12-11 14:44:20

@Trillby.

No one had a cd driver at the workplace. The guy who had asked me, probably asked me without ill.

I didn't mean to imply you were proactively doing something wrong, but someone certainly is. If the guy who asked you for help works in the medical field, he most certainly does know, and if this is in the USA it's definitely illegal for that guy to hand you that data - similar laws exist in most other nations I'm aware of. If the guy who gave it to you doesn't work in a medical field, it begs the question of how he got the data. In any case, if I were you, I'd destroy the disk and not look back.
