I am attempting to use DVD::RIP to rip a DVD (or a piece of one). It tries to execute "tcprobe -H 10 -i /dev/cd0c" and fails with the error: [fileinfo.c:118] file read error: Invalid argument The code is "(read(fdes, buf, bytes)". (The value of bytes is 4.)
I also log a system error of: dscheck(#cd/2): b_bcount 5 is not on a sector boundary (ssize 2048) Is this an ATAPICAM or ATA issue or is it required that reads start at a sector boundary? I assume that this code at least works on Linux systems and I had always assumed that, even though the disk must start a transfer at a sector boundary, the driver buffered the data to make it appear as a byte stream. Maybe I'm confused. Any suggestions on this are appreciated as I want to get a better idea of what is happening before a report the problem. -- R.
