As cmd says,
1. If your disc has scratches, it needs to be polished
2. Try to dump with different drive speed
3. Try to dump with different drive

If the problem isn't solved, you can use this.

KailoKyra dumped this disc: http://redump.org/disc/3927/ but it wasn't matching the database, because DIC is not descrambling any of the last 3 sectors.

Attached the 3 last data sectors for this disc and the DIC log:

If I remember correctly, we agreed before that all sectors inside a data track with a valid sync should always be descrambled? But still DIC is not descrambling the first 2 sectors. The third and last sector has an invalid sync and shouldn't be descrambled.

LBA[079915, 0x1382b]: Track[01]: Invalid mode.

This sector was descrambled. IIRC, we agreed before about invalid mode.

LBA[079916, 0x1382c]: Track[01]: Invalid mode. Invalid reserved byte. Skip descrambling

This sector was not descrambled because this sector is incomplete as data sector. IIRC, we also agreed before about incomplete data sector. For this sector, it seems sync of next sector is shifted by 12 bytes.

In fact, the damaged sectors are 14097, 14098, 14099 and 14100. Why does it say 901 instead of 14100? DIC is probably using a wrong algorithm to show the sector numbers.

@sarami, do you have some thoughts?

I think 'REM LEAD-IN' and 'REM LEAD-OUT' don't need in multi-session's cue of multi-track (redump'org) format.
1. Because multi-session's cue of multi-track format doesn't have lead-in area and lead-out area.

2. Because Dreamcast's cue doesn't have 'REM LEAD-IN' and 'REM LEAD-OUT'. (Admin and mod defined only REM SINGLE-DENSITY AREA and REM HIGH-DENSITY AREA. Actually, GD-ROM has lead-out after the last track of single-density area and lead-in before first track of high-density area.)

3. With only 'REM SESSION 01' and 'REM SESSION 02', IsoBuster can recognize that multi-session's cue of multi-track is multi-session.

But IsoBuster needs 'REM LEAD-OUT' because IsoBuster's bin has the lead-out area of 1st session and lead-in area of 2nd session.

Drive does not always return the error properly. You do know it regarding puzzle bobble 4 of dreamcast. (To dump the track 12, dcdumper rereads several hundred? times until the hash matches. dcdumper compares the hash, not detect the error.)

sarami, could you add a command to disable hashing? I'm advising VGHF on a large scale preservation project and they have too many discs and not enough time, a flag to disable hashing would be an immense help to speed things up. I would prefer they use DIC to other options, and this be a deciding factor.

When DIC is hashing, DIC doesn't access the disc anymore. That is, you can eject the disc and insert new disc and dump new disc by new DIC when DIC is hashing.

Its pointless, the data is not useful, its not fully retrievable, and the result will be no dumps verify.

How can we prove that data has no meaning or purpose? Do you read machine/assambly code? Doesn't easter egg exist in the security sector?
