Cannot mount burnt BD-R - Club CDFreaks

terje · 08-06-2008

I've burnt dv files to two Blu-ray disks with Nero Linux 3.5.1 on openSUSE 10.3 on a HP Compac 8710w mobil workstation with a Matshita BD-MLT UJ-210S recorder.

1) BD-RE DL
14GB first test. UDF Automatic settings
The burnt disk mounts ok and the dv files can be read and played from Gnome/Nautilus/players

2) BD-R DL
47 GB full disk as backup for dv files, UDF Automatic
Successful burning message afterwards
However, this disk can't be mounted and the attached error message box is displayed

Tried "chmod 777 /dev/sr0" but still the same error.
Is there a bug in the disk burning, or other reason?
I won't try a new costly BD-R disk again, before knowing what's wrong here

A follow up question:
Is there any difference with regards to UDF/readers between mounting/reading BD-RE and BD-R disks?

If I test to burn once more, I'll use a BD-RE with the same file content as on the umountable BD-R.

There are many differences regarding the UDF revision that are used for BD, regarding the fact that you are burning a multisession disc or not.
Normally, if you keep writing single-session discs ('No Multisession' set in the the compilation properties), Linux should be able to mount the disc.

**mathf** · 10-06-2008

By the way, have you already try to mount the disc manually as root?
mount -t udf /dev/sr0 /mnt ?

If you also get some errors there, have a look in the logfiles (/var/log/messages normally, or the last lines of the 'dmesg' command) and check what was wrong.

Manual mount as root makes no difference.

What does the messages "UDF-fs: minUDFReadRev=250 (max is 201)" mean?

Here are the command line outputs:

Code:

# mount -t udf /dev/sr0 /mnt 
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

# tail /var/log/messages

I have also installed openSUSE 11 beta3, and the good news here is that the BD-R DL as well as BD-RE DL disks are mounted ok, and dv playback works ok.

Was the error due to the UDF reader version?

**mathf** · 12-06-2008

From the logfile, it seems that you have burned you disc in UDF 2.50, which is not currently supported by most of the Linux kernels (I saw a patch somewhere on the net, but I will not garantee that it is stable).
As you said before, you left the UDF settings to automatic. So that means that you started a multisession disc (at least leave the disc unfinalized).
-> In such a case Nero Linux automatically selects UDF 2.50 as it needs to do what is called Pseudo-OverWrite (POW).

terje · 12-06-2008

What I still think is somewhat remarkable is as mentioned that rewriteable BD-RE DL disks works ok on openSUSE 10.3. Also here I burnt the disk leaving the UDF settings to automatic.

Is another, previous version of the UDF reader used to read this disk, maybe possibly multisessions isn't actual on rewriteable disks?

By the way, here follows the corresponding messages after mounting the BD-RE DL disk

Code:

BD-RE DL works like a charm as it is not written like a BD-R. For multisession BD-RE DL, you basically write them like a DVD+RW, using virtual multisession: this is why you can mount them without a problem on SuSE 10.3
