I have a DVD+R Dual Layer disk recorded some time ago with a bunch of media files and I want to extract them. The DVD is just an iso9660 filesystem, not a conventional commercial-format movie disk. Trouble is, I'm getting I/O errors from 'cp' with some of the files. Since they are media (AVI format) files these errors may be tolerable if there aren't too many, but of course 'cp' doesn't know that.
cparanoia makes strenuous efforts to read flaky CDs, so I wondered if there's something similar for DVDs.
If not, I guess I'll try "dd conv=noerror ...".

Thanks, I'll take a look at those.

Unfortunately, I doubt he put the dvdisaster recovery data on the media. Remarkable program, but requires foresight.

No, he didn't.
