[ILUG] vcd's...

i keep seeing errors mounting video cd's that play fine on my dvd player
and apparently can be seen fine on windows machines.  any ideas why?
should i not be mounting them?  it mounts as plain iso9660 - and the
mount works ok as does an ls - but reading a file on the vcd results in
tons of media errors.  this is on three different cd drives, including
a cd rw drive (hp).

also does anyone know a decent program like dd that can read files with
media errors?  dd have a conv=noerror option, but it doesn't seem to do
much different.  i'd expect it to lseek the of= file to mark the hole
for bad blocks but it doesn't.
