Rip damaged CDs with CDParanoia
Authored by: dahjelle on Nov 19, '03 09:49:21PM

I tried that, but I'm still not getting things to work.


admin$ cdda2wav -paranoia -B dev=IOCompactDiscServices

There is no sound support configured!
cdda2wav: Error 0. Unable to get plugin Interface: e00002c7. Cannot open SCSI driver.
open(IOCompactDiscServices/1) in file interface.c, line 532
Probably you did not define your SCSI device.
You can scan the SCSI bus(es) with 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
Set the CDDA_DEVICE environment variable or use the -D option.
You can also define the default device in the Makefile.
For possible transport specifiers try 'cdda2wav dev=help'.

I've tried several different device specifications, including using a /0 or /1 at the end of IOCompactDiscServices like the page you referenced.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that cdda2wav only works with CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and then usually only internal ones. Perhaps that's my problem?

Rip damaged CDs with CDParanoia

Took a little while to figure it out, but don't put the CD in until you run the command. It will request the disc after you run the command. If you leave it in, the OS takes control of the drive (e.g. Finder, iTunes, etc.) and cdda2wav will complain.

Using the fink version of cdda2wav, the command that worked for my internal combo drive (iBook) was:

cdda2wav -paranoia -B -O aiff dev=IODVDServices
