Graveman: can't find media [SOLVED]

Anyone here have any idea why Graveman is suddenly no longer able to find any media when it's my DVD and CD-RW drives?
It worked fine through several different releases for quite some time, but now all I get when I try to do burn anything is this message:
Please insert an empty or appendable CDR/RW in drive PLEXTOR CD-R PREMIUM Removable CD-ROM to continue...
Currently: no media
I'm running Graveman version 0.3.12-4 from the Arch "extra" repo.
Didn't find any bugs filed on this particular problem.
Have tried removing the config file and letting it rebuild, but no help.
Both, the DVD and CD-RW drives are detected properly at first start by Graveman.
Have removed and reinstalled Graveman and all dependencies, but no help.
I installed Gnomebaker (for testing only) and it works fine with the same media - no errors.
Tried a couple different media types (Taiyo Yuden), but no help.
Command line burns do work without any problems.
Went with udev a month or so back, but don't see any problems there.
Will post graveman config file if anyone wants to see it, but it appears to be okay.
Fstab:
none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hdc /mnt/dvd iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/hdd /mnt/cd iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/flash vfat user,noauto,noatime 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/fl vfat user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda6 / ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda8 /home ext3 defaults 0 1
I don't want Gnomebaker, so will revert soley to command line if I must, but I really want Graveman, again.
Thanks for any ideas on this.

Okay, finally figured this one out...
For some reason, cdrdao is requiring libao to work properly, although it is NOT shown to be a dependency. What I thought was a Graveman issue was apparently a cdrdao issue, and simply installing libao allows Graveman to find inserted media again.
Graveman works properly now. 8)
Oh, and it turns out that there is a bug report regarding the cdrdao/libao issue:

Can't find media browser

How do import songs from iTunes?

You can drag a song from the iTunes window into the GB timeline, or drag the file from Finder into the GB timeline, however:

Can't find media when adding music to slideshow

Trying to add music to slideshow>click music icon>click itunes - cant find media (no music). Tried what the help menu said to troubleshoot & did not help.
osx 10.7.5, latest iphoto and itunes.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Can't run Xfce4. (Can't find xinit) [SOLVED]

I don't have any initial program (startx, startxfce4 nor xinit). Neither do I have a desktop manager (do I need one?) but in the "Xfce4 manual" it just said to: pacman -S xfce4 xfce4-goodies and then startxfce4. What must I do?
Regards
Richard

:oops: It worked. However.
line 45: exec: xinit: not found
[EDIT]
Apparently startxfce4 is a script and it assigns "prog=xinit". Not exactly a bash guru but I assume that's the problem. What should I do?

Media Manager . . . can't find . . .

My file management's a mess . . . I fully admit it. (OK - ok - next time I'll try harder - I PROMISE).
But the 80 min project plays fine in FCP and I've burned to DVD etc - all's good.
Now I want to use MM to boil the whole thing down into one Folder and ditch the unused stuff.
Trouble is, every time MM gets started on the work, it keeps coming up with files it can't find.
Sometimes, it's files that are in my main media folder (where most of the other stuff it found with no problem, is too) - and often when I show it the file, it just keeps telling me it can't find it - ad nauseum!
Sometimes, what it can't find looks like a bunch of numbers that mean nothing to me - even Spotlight can't find them. (I do have all both external drives running),
This is really tiresome.
Any ideas?
Andy
G5 Quad. 8 GB. 250 & 500 GB Int'l Drives. G-Tech G-Raid 1 TB. FCP 5.0.4 (Studio) Mac OS X (10.4.6) Sony HVR-Z1E . . . I mark my questions Solved or Helpful - and I LOVE FCP.

Very strange, isn't it!
A similar thing happened in FCP with this project.
After I'd done some media management of my own (last year sometime) one of the music tracks started coming up as offline every time I started FCP.
I just reconnected by locating the relevant file (which was still in the same folder with the rest of the music tracks) but it kept happeneing.
Eventually, I deleted the music track and relevant clip, saved the project, emptied the trash, re-imported the clip I'd dragged back from my external backup and guess what ?. . . The problem still persisted for some weeks!
Eventually it righted itself - not sure why!

= No SB0220 support available? SO, IS THERE exactly a model numbered as SB0220 AT ALL?
I think there is not.
Yes My Sound Card is exaclty SB0220. I have downloaded the patch and start it. After that I configured the installer and now I have creative drivers. But are they the best for my sound card? After all I`ve pathed the installer and some sort lied it. If the drivers are for my model, why should I path it's
Yes, I've seen a true SB0220 too on a picture after writing that comment so there is true SB0220 model. But, are you sure your card is SB0220? Did you look the number from a sticker on card board w/ serial number lik MSB022xxxxxxxxxxx where the SB022x is the true model number for your card.
Why you didn't got drivers installed for your card is, because the installer doesn't support the model SB0220 (supported cards are listed in ctcomp.dat -> this is the file ctcomp.exe patches).
IIrc, those drivers are the latest ones for your card. If you like to, you can try soft-mod your card the way, you can use Audigy series drivers (which are a bit newer) -> http://www.tech-pc.co.uk/audigy-2.php (i.e. you just use ctcomp.exe utility to patch the installer for Audigy drivers (use these drivers st - http://www.station-drivers.com/telechargement/creative/%20audigy%205.2.0.042.exe) (newer installer maybe can't be patched w/ ctcomp).

[SOLVED] Can't find root partition after upgrade

After upgrading to Linux 3.6.6, the boot fails with something like "can't find root, UUID=..." and I get a root shell. Choosing to recovery mode in GRUB doesn't make a difference.
I don't have any sda devices in /dev.
/proc/partitions is empty.
I have Macbook Pro 7,1.
Ubuntu on other partition works.
Any idea how to fix this?

I don't use these either ... but this does sound like a very plausible cause of this error. Are you sure you aren't using either?
In any case, it's easy enough to add them back and see if that solves this. Boot into live media, chroot, add back the modules to mkinitcpio.conf and rebuild the initramfs. If nothing else this would verify that these are not the problem.

Moved iTunes Media folder, now iMovie can't find it

I moved my iTunes media folder in order to share it between two users on the same iMac, following these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
That worked fine, but now iMovie can't find the iTunes media library. I don't see a way to change this setting in iMovie, the way that you can in iTunes. There must be a simple solution to point iMovie to the new location, but if so I am missing it. Can anyone advise?
OSX 10.6.8, iMovie 09, iTunes 11.1

anyone?

I have a client that uses Windows that has recently told me she can no longer open the PDFs I send her. I can't find this elusive "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" setting that I have read may solve my problem. Can someone get me there?

Dear Dan,
It was from InDesign that I was creating the shared pdfs. I was one of two Mac drivers in a corporate sea of Win users and had to make the change I mentioned in order for the Win users to see my pdfs for review. The difference from what you appear to be doing was that were all on an MS Exchange Server so the files were shared over the company's Exchange Server e-mail system. However, some of these files occasionally went to outside users via regular e-mail and those people had no issues either.
So what I did was tested and worked for years.
You might look at the Adobe forums or Knowledge Base to see if that is a reported issue with newer version of CS. I was on CS2 when I was doing this, and the other Mac driver was on CS3 but had no problems either.
Some Win users I've talked to find a problem opening some pdfs (not mine) in general and found they had to open Reader first and them open the file from Reader's File menu. That most often happened if the client was using an outdated version of Reader.

Once you are in Recovery Mode, it's too late to do any backup. I am afraid you are going to lose your data.

In the iTunes folder there should be a folder saying "Import to iTunes". It is either in Music/Itunes or Music/Itunes/Media. Put the music you want on your iPod in this folder, start iTunes, and sync.

How can I find music in iTunes media folder not included in my library

How can I find the items that are in iTunes music media file but are not currently in my library? There is 7.5G and 1623 items in the music media file but only 5.95G and 1280 items in my library. If I try add the media file to my library it duplicates. So how to find which files are missing from the library and only add those to my library?

Try using a software that its designed to find duplicates, such like these: http://www.howtogeek.com/201007/how-to-find-and-remove-duplicate-files-on-mac-os -x/
