[SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

Hi Arch Forum,

i built a new System on Intel Skylake 6600k, works great. I inserted a SATA DVD ROM (AHCI) a bit outdated, i think from 2007 or so.
(LG HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H30N)

When i try to rip a Audio CD to FLAC the ripper crashed each time. I tried rubyripper and grip.
I think there is some kind of systemtic problem...

Is the DVD-RW Drive to old?

Does the auto mounting feature of thunar has something to do with?

When i watch journalctl -f during the crash i cannot get some hints from that, there is something with ioctl...

I installed Arch from scratch with XFCE. Do i miss some packages perhaps?

Thanks for help,

Daniel.

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

I'd start troubleshooting by taking the encoding  out of the equation and trying something simple - can you extract an iso from your CD?

dd if=/dev/sr0 of=~/cd.iso

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

Good point.

"Failure reading /dev/sr0: i/o error"

In Thunar the CD pops up as "Audio-CD" and i see the .wav tracks (mount point cdda://sr0/)

...

Funny... i just tried to rip the CD on another machine with a fresh Manjaro Install... different Hardware... same thing???

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

So maybe it's a problem with the CD instead of the drive. Try some other CD/DVD and try the dd command that slithery mentioned on that.

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

You cannot use dd with audio CDs!

What if you use e.g. cdda2wav? Maybe with "-v all" to get maximum debug information!

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

@sekret, why can't you use dd with audio CDs? It is only for testing the cd, not extracting the songs with it.

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

Thank you very much for help!

cdda2wav worked well. Afterwards i tried soundkonverter - no problems...

So maybe a problem of rubyripper and grip.

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

You might want to check out abcde as well, I use it for all of my ripping.

Re: [SOLVED] CD RIPPER Crash

My 2 cents.
As well as what has been mentioned
Can you play the tracks on the cd?
Examples:

mplayer cdda://1

mpv cdda://1 --cdrom-device=/dev/sr0

Dump

mplayer cdda://1 -dumpstream -dumpfile track1.wav

file track1.wav
track1.wav: data

Play

mplayer -demuxer rawaudio track1.wav

cdparanoia 1 track1_1.wav

file track1_1.wav
track1_1.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz

It's quite small

pacman -Si cdparanoia | grep Size
Download Size  :  64.91 KiB
Installed Size : 198.00 KiB

Edit: Hadn't used a CD for a while.
This would a better use of mplayer to do that.

mplayer cdda://1 -demuxer rawaudio -vc dummy -vo null -ao pcm:file=track1test.wav

file /home/teckk/track1test.wav
track1test.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz
