To read raw data off the cd, you will need to use the SCIOCOMMAND (if you have a SCSI cdrom) or CDIOATAPIREQ (for atapi cdrom) ioctl. I have the code for atapi cdrom (I don't have a scsi cdrom drive), if you need I can dig them out for you. > > Has anyone had any luck with reading a VCD or can give me some general > pointers on how to proceed? > > - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Ted Faber faber@isi.edu > USC/ISI Computer Scientist http://www.isi.edu/~faber > (310) 822-1511 x190 PGP Key: http://www.isi.edu/~faber/pubkey.asc -lq To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
