Re: copying audio cd's
On 01/05/03 05:36 PM, Chris Hill sat at the `puter and typed: SNIP burncd -f /dev/acd0c -smax -d audio track1.raw track2.raw ... But (at least I found that) it didn't produce a completely correct audio CD; there's something fishy with the TOC, I think. I had trouble with that usage as well. The resulting CD would not *start* playing in my audio CD player, but gave me a flashing 00:00 on the front panel. If I fast-forwarded enough to get past the beginning of the first track, it was fine. I was able to get a proper CD by not using DAO, thusly: burncd -f /dev/acd0c -s 40 audio track1 track2 track3 track4 fixate It seems like it should be possible to pipe the output of tosha into burncd, but I have not experimented with this yet; just bought the burner yesterday. I used this, and it creates a CD that works fine in the Computer, but when I take it into my truck and pop it in the CD player, it doesn't work. Any idea why? I know I could just use the original in the truck, but when it gets hot in the summer, I'd be a lot less upset to have the backup melted than the original. I also noticed that none of the CD Text info gets saved, nor can the CDDB info be determined. Is there any way to preserve that info?

Or do the various Windows-based burners that have the clone a cd function perform the cdda - wav - cdda conversion internally? If you read a little more carefully, you'll see that those posts aren't talking about quite the same things. In fact, they're both correct; you can't copy an audio cd by dd'ing the whole disk, but you can do that for a data disk. For audio disks, you either need another program that understands audio cd format, or (with ATAPI cd drives only, I believe) you can use the acdxty format, on a track-by-track basis.

Yes, sort-of. For example, I just copied an audio CD by doing dd if=/dev/acd0t1 of=track1.raw bs=2352 dd if=/dev/acd0t2 of=track2.raw bs=2352 [...] burncd -f /dev/acd0c -smax -d audio track1.raw track2.raw ...

I only did it this way because cdda2wav, cdrdao, grip, etc, would not work at all for me. For the original poster - cdrdao has a copy option that you might find easier to use than cdda2wav. I don't think you'll see much of a difference in the resultant CD, though. -- If I could think of a two-line witty aphorism for you to remember me by, this would definitely be it.

This seems correct. My CDROM drive is SCSI, and the ...devicettrack notation does not work. What I've done is installed tosha from the ports. It can read audio files from the CD and write them to the hard disk. Works great, and it's nice that most of the options default to what I want :^) Yes, sort-of. For example, I just copied an audio CD by doing dd if=/dev/acd0t1 of=track1.raw bs=2352 dd if=/dev/acd0t2 of=track2.raw bs=2352 [...] burncd -f /dev/acd0c -smax -d audio track1.raw track2.raw ...
