I've been trying to rip a dvd for the last few days, but I'm not getting anywhere. I've tried mencoder, quickrip, and now finally dvd:rip. I don't know what the problem is, but dvd:rip give me this when I attempt to 'Read DVD Table of Contents:

Quote:
Job 'Determine number of titles' failed.

Executed command: dr_exec tcprobe -H 10 -i /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 && echo DVDRIP_SUCCESS

Last output was:


libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
libdvdread: Could not open /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 with libdvdcss.
libdvdread: Can't open /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 for reading
(iodump.c) unable to open directory "/dev/cdroms/cdrom0"


/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 is definately my dvd drive. I can't figure it out, can anyone help. If you need more information just let me know (you may also have to tell me how to get what you're looking for) and I'll provide it. Thank-you.

Sounds like a permission issue.

To check the permissions, do an

Code:

ls -al /dev/cdroms/cdrom0


Your user might not be in the cdrom group, so you might add yourself with the usermod command.

If all else fails, try executing the ripping statement as root, or with "sudo".

cdrom0 has the proper permissions, I'm in the cdrom group, and root has the same problem. Any other suggestions?

Not quite sure what I did, but after playing around with different settings, mount points, etc. dvd:rip is now reading from the dvd just fine. If any other problems come up I'll let you know.
