hello I have two DVDs which contains AVI files. I can't read it in my fedora box but it works in gentoo and windows. I used the DVD drive and the DVDs before so I don't think it is a HW problem. I got this in dmesg: [ 7892.555826] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] Unhandled sense code [ 7892.555834] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] [ 7892.555836] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE [ 7892.555839] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] [ 7892.555842] Sense Key : Medium Error [current] [ 7892.555847] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] [ 7892.555851] ASC=0x10 <<vendor>> ASCQ=0x90 [ 7892.555854] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] CDB: [ 7892.555856] Read(10): 28 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 00 [ 7892.555866] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 0 [ 7892.555872] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 0 what shoud I do now?
Those errors generally indicate that the disc(s) are dirty, as it is a "medium error" (meaning the DVD media, not the size between "small" and "large"). Try cleaning the DVD. I use eyeglass cleaner solution and the cloth that comes with it. Remember to wipe from the center of the disk to the edge in a radial motion (straight line) and don't apply a lot of pressure. Do NOT wipe in a circle around the disk...any scratches you get doing that can confuse the tracking mechanism (CDs and DVDs are written as a spiral track starting from the center of the disc outwards like an old vinyl record in reverse). A blast of air into the drive (be careful!) can be helpful as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Real Time, adj.: Here and now, as opposed to fake time, which only - - occurs there and then - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
