 Posted: Tue Mar 25, 2003 8:05 pm Post subject: Configuring a dvd-rw - How do I? |
 |
|
I've been struggling on and off for a month or so trying to figure out how to configure a pioneer dvr-105. I don't have any other playback device(except for floppy).
I've read all of the tips/tricks/suggestions/havetos, etc. All possibe kernel items are modules. Here is what's loaded at this time(pertinent items):
| Code: |
Module Size Used by Not tainted
sg 25356 0 (autoclean) (unused)
sr_mod 13528 0 (autoclean) (unused)
sd_mod 10252 0 (autoclean) (unused)
ide-scsi 7504 0 (autoclean)
scsi_mod 79940 4 (autoclean) [sg sr_mod sd_mod ide-scsi]
ide-cd 27336 0 (autoclean)
cdrom 25888 0 (autoclean) [sr_mod ide-cd] |
When I run 'cdrecord -scanbus' nothing is found, with or without 'ide-cd' loaded.
When I run:
| Code: |
hb3 etc # cdrecord -v dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -checkdrive
Cdrecord 2.01a04 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2002 J?rg Schilling

Here is my current (pertinent area) of devfsd.conf:
| Code: |
# Autoload the sg module if generic scsi driver compiled as module.
LOOKUP ^sg$ MODLOAD ACTION sg
# Give the cdrw group write permissions to /dev/sg0
# This is done to have non root user use the burner (scan the scsi bus)
REGISTER ^scsi/host.*/bus.*/target.*/lun.*/generic PERMISSIONS root.cdrw 660
# General note for the following auto creation of symlinks:
#
# If you change the device that the symlink points to,
# you should also remove the symlink before restarting
# devfsd
# Create /dev/cdrom for the first cdrom drive
LOOKUP ^cdrom$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink cdroms/cdrom0 cdrom
REGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
UNREGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrom
# Create /dev/dvd for the second cdrom drive
# (change 'cdroms/cdrom1' to suite your setup)
# NOTE: We add the fully qualified path here, else some apps
# have problems to resolve the true device (drip comes to mind)
LOOKUP ^dvd$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink ${mntpnt}/cdroms/cdrom1 dvd
REGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink ${devpath} dvd
UNREGISTER ^cdroms/cdrom1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink dvd
# Create /dev/cdrw for the first cdrom on the scsi bus
# (change 'sr0' to suite your setup)
LOOKUP ^cdrw$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink sr0 cdrw
REGISTER ^sr0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrw
UNREGISTER ^sr0$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrw
#bill's attempt to get /dev/cdr working[cdrw does])
# Create /dev/cdr for the first cdrom on the scsi bus
# (change 'sr0' to suite your setup)
LOOKUP ^cdr$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink sr1 cdr
REGISTER ^sr1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdr
UNREGISTER ^sr1$ CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdr
|
Here is my /etc/fstab(pertinent area):
| Code: |
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd iso9660 noauto,ro
|
I have successfully burned a cdrw disk. I can play back dvd's and cd's. I have not tried to burn a dvd-r yet. I have tried to burn a cd-r and failed.
What I think I need is to see someone's 'devfsd.conf' and '/etc/fstab', who is successfully using this device. Or if someone wants to troubleshoot with me, I'm game. TIA, Bill |

Try this :
Don't load your ide-cd module (it may cause ide-scsi to not function properly)
Then use cdrecord in normal scsi mode (get rid of ATAPI) |

try to pass to your kernel the parameter: "ide-scsi" through the boot loader

Thank you cyrillic and azote.
azote - from my 'grub.conf' file:
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda3 "hdc=ide-scsi"
and from one of my kernel logs, when attempting to 'cdrecord' anything:
Mar 24 21:09:53 [kernel] hdc: ATAPI 32X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2000kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Mar 24 21:09:53 [kernel] SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
Mar 24 21:09:53 [kernel] scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
cyrillic - as I mentioned in my initial post, loading or not loading module 'ide-cd' made no difference. I did try it again, though, and it still made no difference.
\rant - WTF does this have to be like voodoo magic? or with a full moon out on a Sunday night with me wearing a yellow tie? This is frustrating as hell and I've been a linux user since late '98 (it doesn't help much, but I do realize why this is reasonably complicated) - end rant\
Oh well. Thanks again. Bill |

Its not that complicated - no magic involved 
ide-cd and ide-scsi will compete for your CD/DVD devices, whichever loads first wins.
To ensure that ide-scsi grabs your burner, load this module first (you don't even need ide-cd at all)
dmesg should confirm that your CD/DVD devices are now /dev/sr0, /dev/sr1, etc.
Passing hdc=ide-scsi at boot time is only needed if ide-cd is compiled-in rather than a module (otherwise ide-cd will always load before ide-scsi)
cdrecord -scanbus should now show your drives properly without needing ATAPI support (which is still alpha) |

| Thank you cyrillic. I'm going to try another tack with a new post on what recording commands I should be using. I may well have configured my device properly and just not know the right commands to record with. Bill |

|
|
Having a bit of a trouble with my beutifull DVD burner. I have a Pioneer DVR-105. At first I decided to try the old and well tested technique of just do
hdc=ide-scsi
Worked fine, the DVD burner nicely became /dev/sr0. How proude I was overe my emediat success.So proud that I decided to watch "They young ones" while closing another machine. So I mounted the DVD and tried to start the one of the VOB's in gmplayer. Kernel crach. Not exactly what I wanted. Rebooted the machine, tried to mount the DVD as root, worked fine, until I tried to copy a file, crach again. So, skipped the idea of using ide-scsi, and whent for runing as IDE, but then anything except the copyright warning creates problems for the player.
Tried to set the device to use udma, by
hdparm -d1 -X /dev/hdc
and
hdparm -d1 /dev/hdc
Both returned,
/dev/hdc: setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)
Any sugestions?
