ken waters Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I'm trying to make a hard drive image (to copy) of a TV program DVD written onto re-writable media by a Goodmans DVD writer. ImgBurn 2.4.0.0 starts up and begins the read, then hangs and can only be cleared with task manager (leaving the device drawer locked until I reboot). Here's the log: I 14:33:05 Source Media Sectors: 2,254,437 (Track Path: PTP) I 14:33:05 Source Media Size: 4,617,086,976 bytes I 14:33:05 Source Media Volume Identifier: SONATA I 14:33:05 Source Media Volume Set Identifier: 0007354300000000000000080000000300000008000000060000000b0000003800000007RIC1A040 00162 I 14:33:05 Source Media Implementation Identifier: CIRRUS SONATA I 14:33:05 Source Media File System(s): ISO9660, UDF (1.02) I 14:33:05 Read Speed (Data/Audio): MAX / 8x I 14:33:05 Destination File: F:\SONATA.ISO I 14:33:05 Destination Free Space: 776,441,094,144 bytes (758,243,256 KB) (740,471 MB) (723 GB) I 14:33:05 Destination File System: NTFS I 14:33:05 File Splitting: Auto I 14:33:08 Reading Session 1 of 1...

I'm using a Sony device, but I get the exact same symptoms with an Optiarc on my other machine. I'm happy to send you the media if this is new and interesting.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 The buffer gets filled? That must mean reading the disc isn't the problem, writing to your hdd is (or at least something between it being in memory and being written to the hdd. In the main window ('Information' box), how many sectors does it think have been processed? Send me the first 5 mb of whatever image you manage to make in whatever programs and I'll at least try that bit my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send me the first 5 mb of whatever image you manage to make in whatever programs and I'll at least try that bit my end. I attach capture of the top screen. It says 256 sectors but read rate 0, in 10 minutes. CPU load says 0% in task manager. There is nothing in the file F:\SONATA.ISO. I tried this again and it does show a Read Rate while the buffer is being filled, which changes to 0 after about 10 seconds when the program locks up. I don't know how to isolate 5Mb. Best I could do was begin an ftp to my unix box and break it (65Mb). You can access it remotely (81.168.22.211, username rachel, password imgburn - I know, this is a public forum but I trust FreeBSD security, and I'll change the p/w when you next post here).

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 FTP isn't working. Get this file http://download.imgburn.com/grab5m.zip it's a command line tool, just type: grab5m [source file name] [destination file name] i.e. grab5m "C:\input.iso" "C:\5meg.iso" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Uploaded where?! As mentioned above, it won't let me into the FTP. I just get 'Connection Refused' - i.e. it times out. Is it locked down to certain IP's or something? Looks like a firewall issue to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opened port 22 - you should be able to ssh to 81.168.22.211 (credentials as above) - 5meg.iso is there, ftp it out to where you want it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Ok well Port 21 appears blocked and that's the default FTP port. I only have very basic knowledge of FlashFXP and that won't connect. Care to put it somewhere that 'normal' people can access?! Or just email it to me. Your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynthia Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 This one is free and easy to use to upload files to. Max 2GB. http://www.filecentral.se/filecentral/app/en/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how to find your email address in such a way that I can send you a 5mb attachment - the board ensures your anonymity quite well and its messaging doesn't seem to allow attachments. However, if you control the board then you can get my email - mail me and I'll reply with the file, or send me an address and I'll post the media.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Ok, examined and fixed. There's actually a bug in the file system within that image that causes an infinite loop in my code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, so definitely worth waiting up for, then. Thank you. Should I think about telling the manufacturer? Probably not - the unit was remaindered anyway, but for reference it's a Goodmans GDVD301R. Au revoir on this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
