Re: File date questions (4 replies, posted in General discussion)
1: Maybe to document the build date/time of PS1/PS2 discs, like the header of Mega-CD/Saturn games.
2: We have to use the local time stamp so that any user can report the same date/time for a given disc. If not, users from different time zones would report different dates/times for a given disc.
3: Exe date must be taken from the SLES/SCES/SLUS/SCUS/SLPM... file, not from the SYSTEM.CNF file.

Re: File size discrepancy (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
I don't think that the issue is with hidden files. I have got the ISO you are speaking about, and no application (I have tried IsoBuster, 7-Zip and Winhex) can show the remaining file(s). View the sector 261 using IsoBuster, no other files are listed.
For me, this is the real issue:
That depends on the game. Some games use hidden content, not accessible as normal files, but accessed only by the game routines which know what sectors this data is hidden in. Such games can never be rebuilt by using only the files visible in normal directories on a PC (or on a PS2). However, I don't think that is your issue.

Re: File size discrepancy (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
IsoBuster, at least in my setup, can show the hidden files:

As alternative, try the Winhex program (but you will need a license file), has a function to interpret image files as disk, which shows hidden files.

Re: File size discrepancy (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
UDF supports files bigger than 4 GB. But usually, both ISO9660(+Joliet) and UDF point point to the very same files. Example:
http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/8673/ha00.png
http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/7924/x4o8.png
Same starting LBAs and sizes, but names differ (in this case) because that is plain ISO9660 without relaxing restrictions on file name lenghts and character set. But this disc was mastered with a very old version of UDF (1.02) supported natively by XP/Server 2003 / newer.

Re: File size discrepancy (9 replies, posted in General discussion)
When I dumped Duke Nukem Forever I noticed the very same bug, you can reproduce this bug even from a DVD image file opened by IsoBuster (at least with Duke Nukem Forever). Extracting via Track 01 / Extract From-To leads will create an underdump (more or less 230 MB when I tested it). Only Extract <Image> / User data can read the entire disc.
Regarding the extract files function, you need a 100% legal key (not generated) to do certain things as extracting files from UDF filesytems. My IsoBuster isn't registered, because free functionality is enough for me, to extract data tracks, images of single data track discs and files from ISO9660+Joliet filesystems.
Just mount the image through Daemon Tools and copy the files via the Windows Explorer, Windows Vista/7 supports natively the newer versions of UDF filesystem.

Yes, I have checked that and CDmage can open the high density dump through cue generated by ice.exe, if you delete the track 01/02 entries and add a 10 min pregap for track 03.

Re: Dreamcast/NAOMI GD-ROM dumping instructions (54 replies, posted in General discussion)
Tested. Can open a DC dump and shows the files. However cannot extract the files, I get this message and extracted files are fully zeroed:
---------------------------
Error in Application
---------------------------
An unexpected error occurred.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
And tested the GDDAtoWAV converter. Missing last 352800 bytes, converted files are truncated. Perhaps this function was designed without taking into account that redump appends gaps to next track, not to previous track.

IsoBuster for data track and EAC for audio tracks, ripping to headerless format, appending gaps to next track and the proper combined read offset correction for each disc/drive combination.
http://redump.org/guide/cddumping/
For CDs with one data track (no audio tracks at all) ImgBurn can be suitable, as long as you choose .bin (2352 bytes/sector) output, not .iso (2048 bytes/sector).

As reference: the same method used by the PlexTools program, 5. Recover the best bytes (least errors) per sector, until 99 rereads merging the rereads.

Re: PAL PSX game problem (3 replies, posted in General discussion)
How many audio tracks does this game have? Just one or more? If there is just one audio track, EAC cannot detect the pregap and will require a manual fix to prepend the missing pregap (for example, 352,800 bytes of 0x00 pattern = 2 seconds pregap = 150 sectors pregap).

Re: PAL PSX game problem (3 replies, posted in General discussion)
Assuming that it is a new dump (not added to DB yet): You own likely a game with -647 factory write offset. You need a real Plextor drive which supports D8 command or another drive which can compensate the -647 factory write offset, for example a Hitachi-LG DVD writer with +667 read offset correction.
Assuming that DB already contains that game, green status (verified dump by two or more dumpers, or one dumper and several identical discs): If DB states that factory write offset is -647, just dump the disc applying -647+6 = -641 offset correction.

Just dump the two data tracks glued in a go. Then use the remove program to split the dump into data track 1 and data track 2, according to subcode info.
