ReadMe.txt

* Ripping Guide for GD-ROM (The high density area)
** Preparation
 create the audio trap disc in advance.
 (a disc with a hacked TOC of 99 mins audio, burn it with CloneCD or Alcohol 52/120%).
   http://www.mediafire.com/?2nygv2oyzzz

** Method 1 (Other tools)
 http://forum.redump.org/topic/2620/dreamcastnaomi-gdrom-dumping-instructions/

** Method 2 (Other tools)
 http://forum.redump.org/topic/9436/new-dreamcast-dumping-program-test-please/

** Method 3
1. insert the audio trap disc to a supported drive.
2. run below. (stop spinning disc)
   DiscImageCreator.exe stop [DriveLetter]
3. use a pin to press the escape eject button, so the tray will eject (or remove
   the drive cover).
4. insert the gdrom and gently push the tray back (or put the drive cover back on).
5. run below. (start rippping gdrom)
   DiscImageCreator.exe gd [DriveLetter] foo.bin [DriveSpeed(0-72)]

I confirmed this with TS-H353A, but jhmiller couldn't confirm by dic method though he used the same drive and firmware. I don't know the reason.

Interesting. I've seen it for more than 7000 yen on yahoo.jp aucs.

Those are multisessional, iR0b0t said he could add the support, but he needs a proper description of those REM SESSION fields/structure.

Also do GDRoms properly dump in DIC with a Plextor? I haven't found any info on this and the wiki guide isn't for DIC.

These discs are not so expensive.

And a few more failed disc systems:

[*]LaserActive (which uses Laser Discs - part analog and part digital, I assume we would preserve the digital data for these here? Dumping might be super difficult lol!).[/*]

There are also RDI Halcyon and Palcom PX-7. And MSX also has VHD releases.

It has its own line of CDs, needs to be examined. If those are simple Video CDs - no interest, but if they have data tracks with some kind of a program to be run - should be dumped.

  • Tao iKTV CD - just a karaoke system, no games.

  • Sharp X68000 CD - A floppy disc system, some games were released with Audio CDs as bonus discs, these should fall into the Audio CD category.

I'm adding into our miss lists, but any backup of the digital data will require someone with special knowledge to come on board.

Kiss-Site
Thanks for the links sarami. The Kiss-Site looks like yet another console that is more-than-less in Japanese hands if it will ever be preserved. I don't see it being a high-priority obviously, but it's been noted that it exists in our miss list. I don't speak good enough moon to build out a miss list quite yet, but I linked to the resources on the wiki page. http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title= … #Resources
