I've been trying to rip DVD's using AcidRip but whatever DVD I try I get the same error from AcidRip - Can't Read DVD track. Faulty Disc?
After reading the forums I've tried /dev/dvd ,/dev/sr0 (Found by using the Disk Utility), /Media/DVD Title etc and tried running AcidRip both as myself and Sudo without success.
I use ubuntu 9.04 and up until this week I could burn CDs using Brasero disc burner without incident. I have partially fixed the problem. I can now use brasero to burn data discs that have wave files for the songs, but when I try to make a audio disc I get this: "Track 1.wav" could not be handled by Gstreamer. I use synaptic and installed some more libs, but to no avail. Should I just install everything in Synaptic for Gstreamer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a new system using an Intel DG451D main board. I have been trying to get a RAID 1 mirror set working as the main drive in this system and for some reason, my SATA drives - three of them all new have had their SMART data changed to show the drives as failing and in need of replacement. Eventually the drive reports failure to the degree that the BIOS no longer recognises it. When loading the Centos os I was getting differing results because of this issue. I am not sure if this is a hardware issue even - I know that the drives were all very much OK and brand new - no good now! Just putting a feeler out to see if anyone has had a similar issue or to see if anyone knows of any possible known causes for this?
Failing any explanation, can anyone suggest a good desktop style Main Board that supports RAID well for Centos 5.4? I plan to sue this as a small server system so graphics etc are not important here.
When i try to select a codec for ripping a dvd to in acidrip, there are no codecs in the menu that is meant to be there.

When I try to install Acidrip I get this message: Package Dependencies Cannot Be Resolved.
Trying to install Acidrip from Synaptic I'm told: Could not intsall or upgrade package. With this additional information:
Depends: mplayer but it is not going to be installed
Depends: mencoder but it is not going to be installed
So, I try to install mplayer and get this message:
Depends: mplayer-nogui but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libx264-67 (>=1:0.svn20090502) but it is not installable
I try to install mplayer-nogui and get:
Depends: libx264-67 (>=1:0.svn20090502) but it is not installable
Now I'm stuck in a point where I can go no further. I really like AcidRip and have been using it for more than two years through all of the upgrades until Lucid.
I've tried installing all of the non-free codecs, both audio and video with no result.
Can dd read cylinder 0, head 0 of the hard disk? It seems as if he can't. When I do
Code:
dd if=/dev/sda bs=1 | hexdump -C | more
I think it begins with track 1 and not track 0.
I've had some problems with my ubuntu lately (>.<) and would like to use my Windows 7 disc to install windows side by side with ubuntu (for compatibility reasons). The problem is, my computer won't boot the disc on startup, won't read it at all, and thus I can't install it. How can I make Ubuntu read the Windows 7 disc? All other discs work fine.
Its not just my disc- I've used this disc on other computers no problem, and my Ubuntu reads other discs without any problems.
I was just reading about the whole boot process on computers and am curious as to why the BIOS can only read and execute code and data from only cylinder 0, track 0 and sector 1 of the disk being booted from? Why can't the BIOS read from any other disk location?

I saw that on every computer in which I installed LXDE on Debian 8 (the problem was not existing on Debian 7.8.0)
So I decided to use mate-desktop-environment but a brand new problem (always ) made his apparition when I try to use tightvncserver on a Mate desktop (no task bar, and memory growing GB after GB up to the memory explosion after 1 or 2 minutes with 16GB RAM -I will post another subject for that once I will know more things about it - since it is, after all, an huge problem causing the computer to crash if "reboot" our "vncserver -kill :1" is not quickly done)
But here talking about LXDE taskbar: others LXDE users, do you have this problem with the icons ?
Using Ubuntu Maverick and Totem, DVD playback has a slightly shaky picture and a little static at the top and bottom of the picture. Also, top level menus sometimes don't display, or the menu displays but movie won't play, or just nothing happens when trying to play a DVD movie. This problem is happening on two completely different boxes with clean installs. DVD playback seemed OK on Kubuntu and Xubuntu 10.10, as was OK on 10.04. Is this a known issue? And if so, is there a patch?

View 2 Replies View RelatedNot sure if anyone uses floppy drives anymore much. I know that most machines don't come with them anymore unless you ask for one.One of my machines [Machine # 2] has a floppy and I have never had the occaision to use it under linux [opensuse 11.2 currently]. Until now that is! I have about 30 floppies that I need to transfer the data from. I am able to mount the floppy drive and take data off the currently inserted floppy, but if I want to insert another floppy and remove the data from it, I must unmount and remount the floppy everytime. There is an entry in fstab:
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user 0 0
and a mount point in media [/media/floppy] Is there something else I need to have in the fstab line for the floppy so that it will read automatically everytime I insert a disk?
Pavillion laptop crashed and I can not find all of my recovery discs. The computer will not allow me to do an internal recovery so I ordered a recovery download on line and burned to a disc. when I put the disc in the graphics came up and in started in Live-mode but then the error mess came: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libpci.so.3: cannot read file data: input/output error. The site said it was an ISO file but then it had a program it had me run to change it and burn the disc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a karaoke disc with (presumably) 10 cdg files on it. I tried to open it with pykaraoke, but it can't seem to read the disc. I then tried k3b, which was able to rip ten ogg files from it (when I created an iso of the disc, it created ten wav files from it.) I tried opening it with smplayer but no luck. kaffeine opened it as an audio disc. When I tried to mount it with a file-manager, it gave the following results:
Code:
read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[code]....
I tried cdgtools from the pykaraoke site [URL], but I've not had success (cdggui.py requested a "TOC" file to open, but it can't find one on the disc). I use Debian Lenny, but if need be, I'm willing to install newer software (from either source or Squeeze), and I'm also willing, if need be, to use windows software with wine.
i used to use acidrip and k9 copy but their not working anymore. is there another good dvdripper out there?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an mp4 video which includes a 5.1 audio stream, while I only have stereo speakers from my computer. It is hooked up to my receiver through the audio out (headphone) jack from the back of the machine. Anyway, I have a stereo audio stream for the video, but I can't figure out how to add the mp4a stream to the mp4.
I have checked out avidemux, but it doesn't seem to handle mp4a files. I don't want to transcribe the video, simply add the audio to the mp4 container. Does anyone know how to accomplish this in Ubuntu?
It seems that the mp4a is us encoded as AAC.
Some mp3 songs will have track informations like website address etc etc..How to remove those information...?

I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 and it works like a charm, pretty much all over. However I seem to have problems using my M-Audio Fast Track Pro with all four channels - primarily when using Mixxx. I hate to switch between Win7 and Ubuntu just for the use of my VCI-100. Is there a way to have Fast Track Pro work? I tried almost any of the solutions found around here - but i simply cannot get it to work.
