I'm trying to rip an audio cd from my old library but when I try (with every app) to do that, the process is too slow. For 2 tracks it need more than 2 hour and then it crash!

I tried to make:

$ sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/sr0

but the response is

$ /dev/s$ /dev/sr0:

setting using_dma to 1 (on)

HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device

HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device r0:

setting using_dma to 1 (on)

HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device

HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device

  • I am having a similar issue. Ripping a CD takes 10 minutes per track even though my laptop has mad specs.

Instead of using /dev/sr0, use the correct entry from /dev/disk/by-id

For example, I run abcde with the option CDROM=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-PIONEER_DVD-RW_DVR-106D_CJDC269789WL and it now rips at full speed.

I think the correct way to do it is

setcd -x <speed> <device>

See the manpage for details on how speed is expressed. Or rip using this little script,

nenRip I made and configure CDROM_SPEED in there.
