thx for sharing. unfortunately it' didn't work on osx.
error:
ddrescue: Direct disc access not available

Hello, I'm trying to run this on a raspberry pi. I had to comment out the --use-opencl because it would throw an error (unknown option). The other issue is that I see a bynch of ac3 frame sync errors. Is this any cause for concern?
