Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
http://redump.org/disc/16920/ -- scrambled contents has the pre-last sector half-scrambled, half-descrambled and the last sector descrambled, so the descrambled dump should have the last sector scrambled and the pre-last sector inverted. It's a common Saturn mastering error. For some reason DIC leaves the last sector as is without scrambling it, that's not correct. And the earlier DIC versions work fine, I remember I've tested such discs, dumps were correct.

There are still hundreds of common and undumped Saturn titles, like all the Japanese not for sale titles.
Secured = purchased, not dumped yet.
Not for sale titles (the ones that aren't demos) are mostly dumped (except a few $300+ ones that rarely appear at all).

Re: About mastering error sector (5 replies, posted in General discussion)
I think Jackal's argument is based on the first track, where you sarami are talking about the second track, i don't see what you guys are trying to compare here.
No, he is trying to say, that, since we completely ignore data sectors in audio tracks, we should force the descrambling for any sector that belongs to the data track regardless of its contents.
Has anyone tried to burn the image with such sectors with the headers like "00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 80 00 60"? Do they scramble back fine and the burned copy has the same data as the original?
And has anyone tried to burn the image with the unusual sectors left unscrambled? How do they look after the burning?

Re: Question about Plextor (and other) drives (2 replies, posted in Guests & account requests)
PX-891SAF is a rebadged Lite-On, you can even reflash iHAS122 F, iHAS324 F and certain other Lite-On models into PX-891SAF, so it's not a real Plextor.
PX-40TSi is good (but keep in mind it uses the 0xD8 read command only and doesn't support 0xBE).

Re: Redump Patreon (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
And the final argument is that, even if we got $1000 per month for dumping Saturn games or whatever, we would need trustworthy dumpers with a proven track record and with a lot of spare time who are able to deliver these dumps in a certain timeframe. Most active dumpers just don't have the time to do a lot of dumps each week.
I think the Saturn ones that are still undumped are either secured already or are so rare that they can't be easily found and purchased (unless we're talking about paying the collectors for dumping). FM-Towns section is the one that needs lots of money, because there are hundreds (even thousands) of undumped titles, most of them are very pricey. PSX section also needs Germs and Harmful Park

Re: Problem with Ridge Racer (Japan) dump (18 replies, posted in General discussion)
Is there something mystically different about the pregap on only Ridge Racer Japan discs? This "bug somewhere" only affected this multi-track, multi-session disc and not allllllll the others I've done? It's hard to believe.
Yes, why not? 2 sectors could be either read worse than the rest due to some light scratch/dirt/dust or read properly, but incorrectly "fixed" afterwards by the old subchannels-fixing algorithm.
http://forum.redump.org/topic/14725/subdump/ -- use this to dump the subs, clonecd and alcohol usually produce incorrect subs with certain sectors missing and certain sectors doubled. You can add the "-quick" parameter to make a "fast" copy without rereadings.

Re: Subs indexes from a rip (4 replies, posted in General discussion)
I think you should show the logs and sub to sarami to find out and solve all the dumping issues before submitting anything.

Re: Subs indexes from a rip (4 replies, posted in General discussion)
Normally, this indicates some discrepancy between the track addresses in the TOC and in the subchannels, so, it splits the dump into tracks once according to the TOC and once according to the subchannels.
But in this case, it seems to be some DIC bug.

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
Dunno, if to call it a bug or not, but if you dump some game with < 10 tracks (you get tracks with the names like "(Track 1).bin"), then some game with > 10 tracks (you get tracks with the names like "(Track 01).bin" without deleting the previous dump .bin files, you get the datfile with all the tracks from both dumps.

http://dknute.livejournal.com/42778.html
As I've already said a numerous of times, we should use .cues, not .gdis. Gdi format doesn't expect any pregap at the start of the track, this ruins the whole addressing and more-than-3-tracks-images either don't work on emus or work incorrectly.

Works, thanks.
But there's another weird problem. When I dump it without the "/a xx" command, it's fine. When I dump it with "/a 14", it detects the offset 2 times and dumps it incorrectly.

Have you byte-compared the dumps to find out what's exactly different there?
And have you tried to dump something that is already in the database to see, if DIC always gives a bad dump, or if it gives good dumps as well?

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
subdump is obviously same format in mode 1, 2 and 6. mode 5 is obviously different format. mode 1, 2, 6 is raw sub, mode 5 is pack sub. This is same too in dic.
Packed sub for Plextor should match the raw sub, but without errors, but mode 5 dumps are completely different.

cherokeelzzS reported me about 2 Saturn discs undumpable with DIC.
Saturn Super Vol. 8 (Japan) says this:
And Digital Pinball - Necronomicon Revelations (Japan) (Sample) reports about insufficient memory (the logs are weird, DIC has probably misdetected the subs/TOC desync).
