Using dd to back up a DVD (for in case dvd gets damaged), I am getting
frequent messages like
..... File shrank by 1069672448 bytes; padding with zeros
So, the .VOB file copied to HD is all messed up????
I do not know yet, because the process is still in progress.
In the past, I never had this issue, and I have seen many
of my dvd's and CD's get damaged when inserted into friend's
home entertainment centers, and had to rebuild them from HD backup.
Any clues how to prevent this message coming from dd ?
Thanx
JD,
"dd" does not work on DVD's. Use K3b instead:
# dnf install k3b
k3b also lets you do a check after you burn your DVD.
Keeps the "coasters" to a mind roar. You always
know when you have a good burn.
Also, consider using a flash drive. Much faster
and easier to use than a DVD.
HTH,
