I'm running a debian 9.2 machine with a Plextor PX-716A DVD-Drive as /dev/sr0. I would like to rip a music CD to MP3 using abcde. When I try to to launch abcde : $ abcde -V -d /dev/sr0 CDDB method 0: cddb Executing customizable pre-read function... done. Getting CD track info... [WARNING] something went wrong while querying the CD... Maybe a DATA CD? [WARNING] Error trying to calculate disc ids without lead-out information. After a few investigations, I tried cdparanoia, without success : $ cdparanoia -vsQ cdparanoia III release 10.2 (September 11, 2008) Using cdda library version: 10.2 Using paranoia library version: 10.2 Checking /dev/cdrom for cdrom... Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI/MMC interface SG_IO device: /dev/sr0 CDROM model sensed sensed: PLEXTOR DVDR PX-716A 1.08 Checking for SCSI emulation... Drive is ATAPI (using SG_IO host adaptor emulation) Checking for MMC style command set... Drive is MMC style 004: Unable to read table of contents header Unable to open disc. Is there an audio CD in the drive? The I did the same with cd-discid : $ cd-discid cd-discid: /dev/cdrom: CDROMREADTOCHDR: Input/output error I also think about a permissions problem so I verified : $ ls -al /dev/sr0 brw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 Nov 21 22:32 /dev/sr0 and the user that I use is in the group cdrom. To be sure that my drive is working I put a DVD inside it. I can mount it and access the content, so the DVD drive is not broken. I tried the CD on a CD player it works fine, I also tried another music CD and I've got the same result. Finally I think that my DVD drive is unable to read the music CD, so I check with cd-info : $ cd-info /dev/sr0 cd-info version 0.83 i686-pc-linux-gnu Copyright (c) 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2011 R.

I give up. As you can read, this drive is able to read music. In the end, I tried to install vlcand mplayer but none succeed in reading the CD. I'm now lost and far to accomplish a rip ! I would like your suggestions on this problem. Any ideas what to check next ?
