Hello,
I have a Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-R2412 in my portable.
#lshw <reveals>:
*-cdrom
description: DVD reader
product: TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-R2412
vendor: Toshiba
physical id: 0
bus info: ide@1.0
logical name: /dev/hdc
version: 1015
serial: Z34A308331
capabilities: packet atapi cdrom
removable nonmagnetic dma lba iordy audio cd-r cd-rw dvd
K3b gives me this error message:
Could not mount device.
The reported error was:
mount: only root can mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 on /mnt/cdrom
/etc/fstab has this entry:
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
# ls -alg /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 <reveals>
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root 33 Dec 31 1969 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 ->
../ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
/etc/group has this entry:
cdrom::19:root,james
Should I pass parameters to the device at boot
time via /etc/conf.d/hdparm file?
The cdrom works to play music and I can manually mount CDs with
# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
to copy file off the cd.
So why the error message?
What did I miss?
Better Ideas on cdrom configuration are most welcome.
As I should be able to burn CDs with this device
and watch DVD movies?
James

Well, its pretty obvious that root only can mount, and you're using
k3b without root privileges (as a normal user), dus you can't mount
it, nor use it.

> /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
Something like the "user" option is missing, that would allow your
normal user to mount and use the drive, make it:
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0

There's no need for that.

You do that as root, don't you, and besides, a cdda player don't need
to mount cdroms, it uses the device itself in read-only mode. But to
copy files, you need to mount, and to mount you must be root, or
change the fstab file as stated above.

You should be able to do all you can do with your drive, in your case,
I believe you can read cds and read dvds, but as far as I know, you
can't burn cds, its a dvd drive, not a cdrw or a combo. (at least
considering the name, I may be wrong)

OK this got rid of the error in K3b.

Well, the last line from 'lshw' says it is a cd-rw
That implies I should be able to write to the CD?
The page: http://www.toshiba-europe.com/storage/
Index.asp?page=PCI&nav=ISH_PRS&model=SDR2412
tells me the drive has CD rw capabilities. Maybe I missed the correct
driver in the kernel?

Ok, you're right, it really does burn cds.
So, you're still not able to burn them? Try erasing an RW or writting
an RW (so you don't spent cds). You should be able to do that with
k3b, unless you already have mounted the cd (the erase and burn
operations don't need the drive mounted) but I suppose that would echo
an error.
You don't need anything special on your kernel to burn cds. At least I
have nothing special on mine. K3b does it all for me.

Well googling produces lots of complaints about trouble. But
it looks mostly like old windows stuff...

I'm using a brand new rw cd. I tried copying 2 .wav files to the cd.
Here's the messages echoed to the K3b screen:
Using cdrecored 2.1
Starting dao writing at 24x speed...
Medium or burner do not support writing at 24x speed
Switching down burn speed to 4x
Starting in 2 seconds
Starting in 1 second
Writing canceled. <by James after 40 minutes>
Removing buffer files
Unlocking drive...
Could not unlock CD drive.

OK, Maybe my use parameters are missing something?
emerge -Nvp k3b <reveals>
ebuild R ] app-cdr/k3b-0.11.24 +arts -debug +dvdr +encode +flac +kde
-kdeenablefinal +mad +oggvorbis -xinerama 0 kB
ideas?

We'll 'lshw' shows:
product: TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-R2412
capabilities: packet atapi cdrom removable nonmagnetic dma
lba iordy audio cd-r cd-rw dvd
so I'd assume cd-rw means read write:
Also the Toshiba web page:
http://www.toshiba-europe.com/storage/
Index.asp?page=PCI&nav=ISH_PRS&model=SDR2412
<Snip>
SD-R2412
Slim-Line Combo CD-RW/DVD-ROM Drive (24x CD-R Write/8x DVD-ROM Read)
Show all Combo (Slim Line)
With the introduction of SD-R2412 into the market, Toshiba has suceeded in
leading the optical drive standards for the notebook market. This slim
combination drive boasts read speeds of 8x DVD, 24x CD and write speeds of 24x
CD-R, 10x CD-RW making it one of the most ideal drives for mobile multimedia and
storage use.
<snip>
I guess it's possible it's not support to be a cd rw, but that
is not likely?
Maybe it's crippled in firmware, because I do not run winblows on the
portable?
Dunno...
I'm going to test writing to a one-shot disk now...

Ah, this may be the problem.
IN the k3b gui, I went under settings, but did not see anything
critical.
The only documents I have found are in /usr/share/doc/k3b-0.11.24.
Running k3bsetup as root fired up the gui. All of the selections
look fine. I hit the 'apply button' anbd it popped up
'Successfully updated all permissions.'
It wrote out this file:
/root/.kde3.3/share/config/k3bsetup2rc
Which is:
[Devices]
TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-R2412=4234,4200,auto,auto
device_search_path=/dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
[External Programs]

cdrdao user parameters=

search
path=/usr/bin/,/usr/local/bin/,/usr/sbin/,/usr/local/sbin/,/opt/schily/bin/,/sbin
[General Settings]
burning group=burning
use burning group=false
This look OK?
I get the same results trying to burn 2 .wav files to the cd-rw...
It runs but no progress with preparing write process (0%)
or Overall progress (0%).
It just hangs. I let it go a while but nothing happens.
Then I quite and mount the cd manually as root... empty...
ideas?

yes i think you should try cdrecord from the command line with the
verbose option turned on and see what happens. ( the option is -V).
If you need the basics of how to use cdrecord see the cd writing howto
at http://tldp.org
There is some weird crap with cdrecord and various kernel versions.
what versions of cdrecrod and kernel are you running?
also I note that i am in the cdrecording group in /etc/group - I am not
sure if this is important or a hangover from some earlier setup.

I added root and myself to this line in /etc/group

I was already in this line:
cdrom::19:root,james
Maybe a better command line to test with cdrecord?

are you sure you have the right device? What is the output of
cdrecord --scanbus dev=ATAPI
for reference mine is:

OK time to play "spot the obvious error" - your command line has ATAPI:1,1,0, whereas the device is at ATAPI:0,0,0
try the command line again with the correct device :-)

Ok I tried this:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -audio -v *.wav
in a dir with multiple .wav files..... Here's the result:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -audio -v *.wav
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive

OK, I've tried a variesty of wav files, including some
saved .wav files from my
vonage system that plays just fine. Always I get the same
closing error:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -audio -v
startup.wav
cdrecord: Inappropriate audio coding in 'startup.wav'.
Ideas? Is the above syntax correct? The device seems to be
correct now:
.....................
# cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -audio -v
startup.wav
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.

>From man cdrecord:
-audio If this flag is present, all subsequent tracks are written in
CD-DA (similar to Red Book) audio format. _The file with data for this
tracks should contain stereo, 16-bit digital audio with 44100
samples/s._ The byte order should be the following: MSB left, LSB left,
MSB right, LSB right, MSB left and so on. The track should be a
multiple of 2352 bytes. It is not possible to put the master image of an
audio track on a raw disk because data will be read in multiple of 2352
bytes during the recording process.
If a filename ends in .au or .wav the file is considered to be a
structured audio data file. Cdrecord assumes that the file in this
case is a Sun audio file or a Microsoft .WAV file and extracts the
audio data from the files by skipping over the non-audio header information.
In all other cases, cdrecord will only work correctly if the audio data
stream does not have any header. Because many structured audio
files do not have an integral number of blocks (1/75th second)
in length, it is often necessary to specify the -pad option as well.
cdrecord recognizes that audio data in a .WAV file is stored in Intel
(little-endian) byte order, and will automatically byte-swap the data
if the CD recorder requires big-endian data. _Cdrecord will reject
any audio file that does not match the Red Book requirements of 16-bit
stereo samples in PCM coding at 44100 samples/second._
Possibly your .wav file is in fact 'inappropriately encoded'? Does it
burn if you use -data instead of -audio?

Hello Holly,
If you read the threads, I start out trying to k3b working. I have
not used
cdrecord, so it's quite possible (statistically probable) that
I'm doing
something way stupid here....
so I tried:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -data -v *.wav
results:
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different drive
dependent defaults.

OK, two things occuring to me (though I can't say I know anything about
this):
1) I was asking originally what the coding of the audio file actually
was (meaning check it in mPlayer or some other audio player that will
give you the details of the file itself)-- is it stereo, is it 44100 or
whatever cdrecord wants, etc? It might also be useful to verify that it
is in fact a .wav file and not some other kind of audio encoding that's
just *named* with a .wav extension.....
2) But now that I've seen that filename, I'm wondering, "What happens if
you rename that file?" to either a) something shorter (maybe there are
too many characters in the filename, if you don't have Joliet and/or
other special options allowed that would let you use such a long
filename), or b) to a filename that doesn't have a - directly before the
.wav (I've seen it happen that applications of various types, K3b among
them, choke on filenames with "weird" characters in unusual places, or
c) both a) and b) .
HTH,
Holly

Hi,
Just my experience here. Recently changed my CD-RW with a DVD-RW drive.
Had some old cdrecord-scripts with worked with former but now doesn't
work with the DVD-RW.
All (CD. DVD) work with k3b though. Could try "growisofs" in
command-line mode.

OK, tried these commands on differernt audio files, one of which
is called 'close.wav':
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -data -v close.wav
and
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -data close.wav
Both give the exact same error messages, as do using these commands
with lots of different files.
also, file close.wav says:
file close.wav
close.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM,
16 bit, mono

So I changed the file to 'close.txt' and ran
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -eject speed=2 -pad -data close.txt
Interesting results:
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Asuming -tao mode.
cdrecord: Future versions of cdrecord may have different
drive dependent defaults.
cdrecord: Continuing in 5 seconds...

Maybe you can tell me to download a specific file that you know
should write to the cd-rw and I'll try a (short) file that should
write. The exact command line syntax to see of this drive will
work with the linux drivers would be a good idea, as I have not
found detailed documentation on cdrecord......
Other ideas???

Last time I checked, the ATAPI:0,0,0 device syntax requires root privileges. You can use /dev/hdx instead so that the kernel can figure out the permissions.

Try -dao instead, or try cdrdao instead of cdrecord.

This seems suspect to me... it looks like cdrecord is detecting your
burner as a CD/DVD-ROM, not a burner. I had a similar problem with an
external USB 2.0 DVD+-RW drive that would get misdetected. Took a
while to figure out what the heck was going on...
Is it possible that that's what you're running into?

Well, you are right, it does not like the user, and insist on root.
Issuing this command as root:
cdrecord dev=/dev/hdx -eject speed=2 -pad -data close.txt
did not work.

Quite probable.
It could even be something stupid I did in building the kernel....
I can mount and copy files off the cd, only.
I've never been able to get a cd burner working on linux....
I have no idea what to try/do.....gui or command line....
If you suggest something, tell me where a simple file is to use
and suggest exact syntax....
I'd just like to see a simple ascii text file burned to either
the rw media or the oneshot cd media.....
Ideas are most welcome.

Success, at least for what you were asking it to do, and that is to write a
file named README onto a disk. Never mind that the disk doesn't have a
filesystem and the README file is just a file and not a filesystem, just
write it to the disk.
Which it looks like it did just that.
You've now got yourself a perfectly usable dring coaster to place beside
your monitor as that's all it's really good for at this point.
Sarcasm aside, you really should have built an iso-based filesystem with
README on it, then burn the resulting file to the disk. The man page for
cdrecord has the details from building mkisofs followed by cdrecord.

Hi James,
Googling for "DVD-ROM SD-R2412+linux" showed me that it's a combo -
DVD-ROM&CD-RW.
Now looking at some page from Norway with some CLI scripts, can't get
the language tough ;)
...BEGIN...
Når det er gjort kan du i mitt tilfelle kjøre følgende kommando for å
brenne image’et over på CD:
cdrecord -v speed=24 dev=ATAPI:/dev/cdrom filnavn.iso
...SKIP...
Dermed har du en fil ved navn track1.wav som er klar for brenning.
Sannsynligvis vil du ha mer enn et spor på audio-CD’en, så det er bare å
gjenta prosessen med andre filnavn (f.eks. track2.wav, track3.wav,
etc.), og f.eks. kopier dem til en mappe ved navn ~/audiocd. Deretter
kan du, mens du er i mappen ~/audiocd/, kjøre:
cdrecord -v speed=24 dev=ATAPI:/dev/cdrom -pad -audio track*.wav
...END...
Choose not to remove the comments, there are more pages and it seems to
be working.
Sorry no experience with combos (only with pure CD-RW and DVD-RW) but
used all kind of tools:
command-line (cdrecord, but not with DVD-RW to write CDR), k3b and
nautilus-cd-burner.
HTH. Rumen

Which seems to bring us back to where I at least was a bit ago---
1. There's nothing wrong with the device *per se*, or with cdrecord,
having now proved that it is capable of burning a file to CD (I assume
the file was correctly burned, but with a file as small as a README,
you're not going to get any noticeable buffer use)
2. The error that cdrecord was previously giving is to greater or lesser
degree accurate--
*there's something wonky about the files you're trying to burn*
I don't know what that might be, but it seems to me that one possible
chain of logic is:
a) no matter whether you use --audio or --data (or rename the file with
a new extension), cdrecord detects the file as audio and automatically
uses the --audio switch;
b) cdrecord has requirements for the encoding of a file using --audio
(as specified in man cdrecord, earlier quoted)
c) your file, which must be burned with the --audio switch, does not
meet the specifications that the --audio switch requires (as shown when
you posted the file specs gleaned from mPlayer).
The problem might be something else entirely, of course; this is just a
theory. But since we don't know what the problem actually is (and I
don't so much have the time atm to specify how to make sure all the
components from the kernel to cdrecord to your file are all in proper
working order), it's worth further investigation.
On that note, three questions:
1) the USE flags for cdrtools are:
on-the-fly-crypt -
unicode - Adds support for Unicode
crypt - Add support for encryption -- using mcrypt or gpg where
applicable
dvdr - Adds support for DVD writer hardware (e.g. in xcdroast)
Which ones did you use? Maybe you have a functionality needed that you
don't have enabled?
2) Have you tried re-encoding the audio file to the cdrecord
specifications, and *then* burning it?
3) (Thanks for the idea, Dave Nebinger) Have you tried making an ISO of
all the audio files (unaltered) that you want to burn to CD, using
mkisofs, and then burning the ISO instead of the files?
HTH,
Holly

Well, sarcasm is fine (I deserve it). However, you have helped me uncover
a simple but profound problem. The system where I'm working on the cd-rw,
does not have a man page for cdrecord. It has the exact same USE flags
as that another system (including 'doc') has that does have the man page for
cdrecord. I thought that if the USE flag 'doc' was in /etc/make.conf, then
all man pages get installed????
So, pretty lame, but that's why I missed the cdrecord man page. I did not
think there was one...
Any ideas how to get ALL of the man pages possible to all of the installed
software on a gentoo system?

Dunno. I just discovered that there is a cdrecord man page (see last
response to Dave). I need to read up on cdrecord and learn the basics
of using a/the cdwrite features...

Where are these flags set?
/etc/make.conf has these USE flags:
"-gtk -gnome java qt kde dvd cdr sse mmx 3dnow alsa
apache2 calendar cups divx4linux encode ethereal acc
jack perl php postgres spell ssl tiff xv java ffmpeg
mplayer v4l dvdr jpeg lm_sensors quicktime xmms xvid
mozilla mpeg scanner doc xine theora"

I need to learn how to use any simple cdrecording commands
(syntax challeged user here) first. Then I can worry about
all sorts of fancy file types/formats. I'd be better off
downloading a know file to write to the device (ascii text?)
or something on the gentoo system, just to build a little
confidence. I need a newbie 'how to cd burn' before I worry
about the intricacies of audio recording files on CDs.

I'm going to read the cdrecord man pages. simple syntax examples
or a link to a document to any cd burning software is what
I need.

Sorry, James, that was my fault. I had jumped in mid-stream and hadn't
realized it was an ongoing thread... Trust me there was no sarcasm
intended.
As far as the man page for cdrecord, it comes in as part of
app-cdr/cdrtools. I don't know why you wouldn't have it if you emerged it.
I don't have a doc or man use flag, it just came in...

The cdrecord man page is part of - app-cdr/cdrtools
Perhaps it needs to be re-emerged?

They should be emerged as part of the installed software. Perhaps there
are some issues with the manpath on your system?

A quick rundown...
- audio CDs are generated by writing WAV files directly to CD. The
player reads them directly from the CD. You do not mount audio CDs.
- to get regular files onto CDs in a readable form, you first need to
create an ISO9660 filesystem image file, using mkisofs (man mkisofs).
Then burn the image file to a CD. You can usually get away with
piping output from mkisofs stdout to cdrecord stdin.
- you need root privileges to properly use cdrecord; deal with it. If
you're scared of logging in as root, you can use sudoers.conf to give
a regular user permission to run specific command and parameters. I
need root-level access in order to read system files for my bi-weekly
backups, so cdrecord's need to be root was never an issue for me.
Note; The following is all done as root (or root equivalent).
The first thing you have to do is figure out your device numbers.
*YOUR SYSTEM CAN BE DIFFERENT FROM MINE*, so read the instructions
carefully. Execute the command "cdrecord dev=ATAPI: -scanbus". It can
take a few seconds to scan the system. Ignore the warnings/disclaimers
The important part is at the end. Here's that output for my system...
0,0,0 0) 'SONY ' 'CD-RW CRX195E1 ' 'ZYS5' Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1) 'SONY ' 'DVD-ROM DDU1621 ' 'S1.5' Removable CD-ROM
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
This indicates that my CD-RW is device 0,0,0. mkisofs creates an
image of a specified directory, including subdirectories. Soft links do
*NOT* work. To save time, and avoid cluttering up my drive with temp
files, I pipe directly from mkisofs to cdrecord. I make a tar.bz2 of
the files I want backed up, and move the file to directory "xfer". The
following script does it all-in-one...
#!/bin/sh
mkisofs -R -J xfer | cdrecord speed=8 -tao -v fs=8m -data dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -
The "-R -J" parameters should result in mkisofs output that's readable
by all linux and Windows machines. The cdrecord parameters are...
speed=8 ...the burner on this machine can go up to 48x. But my emergency
backup system is a 6-year-old Dell that can only read up to 12x.
Oops. This parameter slows down the burner so that the older
machine can read its output.
-tao "track at once". This allows you to do multi-session CDs.
-v I prefer some verbosity in the output.
fs=8m The fifo buffer size. The default is 4 megabytes, but I specify
8 megabytes to play safe against under-runs.
-data Straight out of the man page...
-data is the default, if no other flag is present and the file
does not appear to be of one of the well known audio file types.
If neither -data nor -audio have been specified, cdrecord
defaults to -audio for all filenames that end in .au or .wav and
to -data for all other files.
dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 This specifies the device. The 3 numbers can be found
by running "cdrecord dev=ATAPI: -scanbus"
- The hyphen at the end specifies to use stdin as the source file.
You will get a standard warning from cdrecord, because it can't
know ahead of time whether the piped input will fit onto the CD.
