Hey everyone,

it's been a while since this thread went to sleep, but right now i am
trying to dig through all of this again.
i am still quite confused by much of the things you are talking about. by
now i gathered that sys/cdio.h is where the action is.

what i am really confused about is:
is there any way to read raw data off a video cd that works on both ide
and scsi ?

or could anyone maybe point me to an implementation of anything that reads
vcds and uses the current mechanism for reading vcds that soren explained
- i can't find which ioctl he meant to set the blocksize.

it would be really great if someone could help me out here, i feel quite
lost :) cheers,

Heiko
