Running makemkvcon under QEMU

#1 Post by rosie » Fri Sep 19, 2014 1:08 pm

I am currently trying to run 1.8.13 makemkvcon on an installation of TinyCore Linux running on a QEMU guest.

The host is ARM based (and although I have read that mike has plans for an ARM build), I thought I would try to get it running using QEMU with an emulated i586 guest.

The guest can access the bd drive /dev/sr0, and discs can be mounted as normal (mount -t udf). blkid also recognises the volume and the disc inserted. Makemkv compiled (with configure --disable-gui) and its libraries were built and installed without problem.

However, when I execute makemkvcon (with a disc inserted) I get:

'makemkvcon info -r disc:9999' shows

MakeMKV v1.8.13 linux(x86-release) started
...
Error 'Scsi error - ILLEGAL REQUEST : INVALID FIELD IN CDB' occurred while issuing SCSI command 4602000010..00100 to device 'SG:dev_11:0'
DRV:0,0,999,0,"DVD-ROM QEMU DVD-ROM 0.15","","/dev/sr0"

'makemkvcon info disc:0' shows

'makemkvcon backup disc:0 trybackup' results in:

Can anyone help?

I guess no one has had success with QEMU on ARM hosts.

Mike - is there any update on an ARM version of makemkv?

Itching to see it running on hardware like the Jetson TK1 (now it has a hardware accelerated Kodi) - there seems to be loads of capable ARM based hardware now that would really benefit from makemkvcon streaming!
