The test version test_20190508_190259 (currently the latest test version on the first post last I checked) has a bug when dealing with SafeDisc protected games. When using /sf it will appear to detect the SafeDisc protection but at the end of the dump with try and reread the bad sectors as if they were not supposed to be there as part of the copy protection.

I believe my report was not clear, there were no C2 errors for me. Only EDC/ECC errors from weak decoding and only at the end of the disc with lba > 200000.

I will redump and add logs later.

Will test

Here's some logs.

INDEX 00 is being added as if the single track has a pre-gap and then the lead-out is being added as INDEX 01

The latest test version is giving broken cue files for non-multisession discs.

Confirmed the last version is too on this computer, other tools are fine. Must be some bug that is making it think the entire track is pre-gap.

I have problems with safedisc 2.9 discs sometimes, it seems they have some type of weak sectors towards the end of the disc. They get no C2 errors, but get EDC/ECC errors after descramble and I have to manually redump those sectors many times in iso buster after performing a seek to 150 to get a good dump of them.

So far two discs have this problem, disc 3 of original Splinter Cell version, and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. I wonder if anyone else has encountered this?

CSS seems OK now for the discs I tested.

If RapidCRC is not present with test version, hashes are not calculated. Maybe forget I suggested this as the tool has no command line version.

Can you remove the 4 spaces from produced dat files , I have to manually remove them always when submitting dump hashes.

OK will test with 0

Will test CSS too.

I found a very fast hashing library/program here https://github.com/OV2/RapidCRC-Unicode

I have a Yamaha CRW-F1 I'm trying to test, but it seems to hang at setting the drive speed, it works fine in Alcohol and CloneCD, and ISO Buster so I'm wondering if this is a bug in DIC or not?

Nevermind, problem on my end.

CSS is not working properly, each VOB tends to have it's own key. Pretty much try any US DVD.

HashMyFiles definitely works on this PC, I will check it on XP machine. But it's OK if I can hash after dump too on modern machine.

:EDIT:

HashMyFiles is even slower than your implementation, I will just live with it until I can come up with something and let you know when I do.

CUI has its own, and I was going to make my own with optimizations and SSE so it's not bound to pentium II speeds.

I have to redump 1800 discs and dump several hundred more, the non optimized hashing adds up to a lot of time with that many discs, and I am not getting any younger. big_smile

Sarami can you add a switch to disable hashing, so I can use a different tool for that?

Thanks sarami, I still think our wiki guide should be linked but that's not a big deal.

A shame about the older plextors, I have several.

sarami can you add a link to the wiki which is easily visible about the drives and dumping.

Also what is the status of PX-W1210 , PX-W1610 and PX-W2410 drives?

Thanks.

Also try reading the discs in the same drive that wrote them.

Are you trying to dump severely damaged discs or something? Get them buffed.

I always mounted the image in DT 3.47 and dumped with CCD to do this, or used CDMage to do it.

Yeah the PIII-S is old, but that machine is IDE (my c2d machine died) and I need that as I cannot find SATA > IDE adapters that work.

I suppose I can just compile it myself in Visual Studio if the project has complete dependencies.

Thank you for the update to the hashing, it's much faster now, especially with DVDs.

I really like how it now handles safedisc and securom.

What are your plans for DVD protections, Data Positioning and Starforce/Tages ? Has there been any discussions?

sarami: People are using a Pentium II or AMD with 3Dnow to dump? Even I think that is silly. SSE (1) is introduced with Pentium III. Maybe a command line switch to enable it, hashing is very very slow on such an old processor and a large waste of time.

There's not really any standardized hashing app/library, it depends on what the usage is and most stuff these days is not using md5/sha1 because it's not secure, or is used for low collision hash tables.

The printing the progress to the console, it is slow and takes up processing time. I am specifcally referring to the hash calculation.

So it runs on XP on PIII-S (surprised VC++ 2015 works) , have you compiled with SSE (1) extensions and optimization? It should help with hashing speed for me.

Also could you detect processor features and make the UI update less frequently (maybe 100 times less) or not at all when on old systems, it really slows things down.

Yes ltns!

Thank you, and yeah I figured out ctrl+c works.

149

(3,497 replies, posted in General discussion)

sarami, can you add Ctrl+C abort, also can you make it not spit out the usage when the command line is wrong.

Latest test version is working fine on my px-5224a and px-760a , also my lite-on dvd.

mediafire no longer works for me, can you just upload the binaries to github as packages for download.
