Dumped with /sf /nq /c2 twice each on my 760SA and 708

All four dumps "no unintentional c2 errors", none of the hashes matched either...

Disc is scratchless. (Its an action replay ps2 disc)

Sarami, would it be possible for dic to auto-detect multisessional discs and use "/ms" automatically?

Thanks again for your amazing work, its very cool to see multisessional discs correctly represented in redump smile

Any info on this? Can DIC detect the needed amount of empty sectors for the first track? As I understand, you need to align the 2nd track to start with the proper byte sequence, not the 1st track. If you detect the offset for the 2nd track, all the other tracks should also have the proper offset, including the 1st track.

Did you try this?

It seems 708 is good.

I have an unlicensed Mini-CD that has a full-size-CD TOC. Is there anyway to tell DIC to just dump the maximimum mini-CD TOC length, instead of trying to dump the part of the disc that doesn't exist?

Hi sarami, i have problem with an audio cd, DIC crash at the end... i can't mount the dump, it looks like the cue file is broken because of CDTEXT. here the logs https://www.mediafire.com/file/tbzmj99q … ue.7z/file

Maybe you're decoding it wrong? The frame is exactly 19600 bytes and the 1st track should contain exactly 106 frames. But it always has the 2095632 size (for the Color discs), so, if you start with the non-zero byte, you will have an incomplete frame at the end? 106x19600 bytes + 18032 (incomplete frame) at the end? And the 2nd track will have 1568 bytes from that frame?

Look at these 2 tracks. It's a Color disc, it was dumped with /vn, the 1st track starts with the non-zero byte and your PVDTools.exe decodes 106 frames there. But the 2nd track doesn't start with 0x81, 0xe3, 0xe3, 0xc7, 0xc7, 0x81, 0x81, 0xe3. So the 1st track can't start with the non-empty byte here. But if you redump it as /vn 18032, the 2nd track starts properly.

My color disc has 106x19600 bytes + 18032 (incomplete frame) in track 01. So, /vn 0 is no problem.
Your color disc has 106x19600 bytes + 7624 (incomplete frame) in track 01. So, you need to use /vn 10408. (18032 - 7624 = 10408)

Incomplete frame is VideoNow logo. This belongs to track 01, not track 02.

Can you make a real autodetection of the offset? Users don't want to count those values, it should be automatical.

If the problem is occurring on a burned CD-R then the problem is likely the disc, pressed discs should not have random data. Probably better to add a switch for the special case.

Are you fixing also P and R-W channels for data/audio discs as well as the Q channel?

Daemon Tools is making working dumps of Tages (DVD and CD) I found after I bought it, but the images are encrypted (not nice of them), so will have to try to reverse engineer this. Hopefully we can find out how they are special and they can be dumped correctly.

How about the 3rd, 4th, 5th... tracks? Do these tracks really start with 0x81, 0xe3, 0xe3, 0xc7, 0xc7, 0x81, 0x81, 0xe3?

And please try to use /vn 10408 by your disc, then check if all tracks start with 0x81, 0xe3, 0xe3, 0xc7, 0xc7, 0x81, 0x81, 0xe3 except the last track.

I've thought there shouldn't be any incomplete frames, only the possible empty sectors before the data for the first track and after the data for the last track? How can you work with an incomplete frame? Don't you lose the data when a part of the frame belongs to the track 1 and another part to the track 2? Don't you need to choose the proper offset to not to split the frames?

Hmm, yes, with 10408 they do.

Sarami would you mind taking a look at this dump please? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hYipVH … sp=sharing

Its "DVD Region X" a datel disc. It is similar to the ones that DO dump good in that all the errors are at the start of the disc, however dic doesn't flag them as intentional, and dic tries and fails to reread them.

Could you also make it so it doesn't abort on C2 errors or a switch for it, sectors may be correctable with ECC.

Talked again with Claunia. It seems we should treat the 1st track as a separate track (18032 empty bytes + 106 frames), while tracks 2 and after are like a single track for the system. The main movie part is divided by tracks, yes, but it's not intended for playing/decoding the separate tracks. So the tracks 3 and beyond can start with incomplete frames and have any bytes there.

sarami wrote:

http://redump.org/discs/system/hvnc/ -- all the dumps have the first track as 18032 empty bytes + 106 frames and they have the same CRC. If you shift the data, so they would start with a non-zero byte and have incomplete frames at the end - none of them match each other. That means the "incomplete" frame doesn't belong to the 1st track, because the 1st track is always standard (for the already dumped discs) and its data should be the same, while track 2 is, of course, always different, including its first frame.

Doesn't VideoNow Player support the track search like general CD player? If yes, it's inconvenient player...

Even if VideoNow handles the disc like a single track, tracks themselves should be standalone according to the TOC and the correct combined offset, I think. Because VideoNow disc is multi track.

sarami wrote:

It does, but think about audio cds: the data isn't always properly aligned on them. And there are many gapless discs, where the track numbers are only used to navigate inside the one big record.

sarami wrote:

Or you're just trying to align the data your own way smile

I think the explanation about the 1st track is always the same and the rest of the disc is always different, so the 1st track should be always aligned properly is correct.
