I generally mount and then use "cp" to copy my video dvds to hard disk for convenience. 99% of the time this works fine and the resulting directory is playable by vlc, etc. However occasionally I'll get an "Input/output error" when copying a disc that vlc played fine and, unsurprisingly, there are problems when later trying to play the copy.
I suspect that vlc makes use of error correction capabilities on the dvd, whereas "cp" doesn't. Is there some way or tool that will make a copy of the dvd using (or at last preserving in the copy so that vlc can use) the error correction stuff on the dvd so that the copy is playable even when there are some errors? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org 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?
