Hi all!

The problem: I have a 650MB/74 min CD-R with audio tracks in it. However
when i tried to use cdda2wav + cdrecord or cdrdao (copy) to do a copy of
the CD, it just failed.

Strangely enough, there were different reasons.

cdrecord gave me a 'track servo failure' twice (after suceeding a dummy
write), and a 'logical block address out of range' once and two or three
times it just quited saying that the disc space needed would be more than
that available.

cdrdao also succeded on --simulate but failed at writing
(retryable error).

After this i noticed that indeed the tracks were requesting about 680 MB of
space on disk (as .wav files). However cdrecord also failed to write a
subselection of tracks that would fit the media (see below).
I know the media was right because I already wrote other audio stuff onto
it...

Here are two of the cases:

I am confused about this because the source CDR media is a 650 MB / 74 min
disc. 
Do you think that doing an exact copy of the disc would work?
I read in past postings about some alternatives to do an exact copy of a
disc. The postings were related to a data disc and suggested the use of dd
(sdd) or readcd to do this. Is this also valid for audio CDs?


Thanks in advance for your help.


For the record:
RedHat Linux 6.2
Pentium III 600 MHz, 256 RAM
cdrdao 1.1.3
cdrecord 1.9 / 1.8
Adaptec 29160 PCI card (connection to CDR configured as ASYN, 5MB/sec, if i
remember correctly) 
Yamaha CDR400t firmware revision 1.0q


I also noticed that cdrecord 1.9 was trying to write at speed 1 when the
default speed should be 4. (?)
