I'd think there was some kind of read error on that file. When you managed to copy it, the error was cleared, and it played. What does "file *" say now?
Now it says this AVSEQ01.DAT: RIFF (little-endian) data, wrapped MPEG-1 (CDXA) AVSEQ02.DAT: RIFF (little-endian) data, wrapped MPEG-1 (CDXA) AVSEQ03.DAT: RIFF (little-endian) data, wrapped MPEG-1 (CDXA)
Well, that's different, it is readable.
Any idea what's happening? Sometime back also I had a similar problem and I had to resort to scp'ing the files to the linux machine.
I dunno. But what Hans sugest seems reasonable.
Last time what happened was that the windows files were hidden and linux wouldn't list those hidden files when I change to the directory /media/cdrom/<file directory> and say ls or ls -a. So I had to put the cd in the windows machine change the attributes so that the files are not hidden and then scp'd the files to my machine and then it worked.
If I had one of those CDs I'd try things, but I don't know. Some kind of protection, perhaps? -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
