It's not a bug, if there are <10 tracks, then numbers are 1 to 9; if 10+ tracks - 01 to 09.

By the way sometimes data is present in pregap, but you can see it by sync after calculating write offset. Ex. Magical Hopper has first sector of audio track as data (it's the only one I found), it's shifted exactly equal to write offset with data track.
As I've said, wo should be +810 for that, +222 leaves the whole data sector (2352 bytes) in the 1st sector of track02 pregap.
asapy's help is needed (he is the dumper of Gale Racer) - I guess, p_star has already sold his copy.
And all the CDs with C xx ring should be reverified, if possible, and further dumps should also be verified, because it's seems to be a common thing (remember Virtua Fighter Remix with its 1.74, for example).

Re: [SS] Something about dumping Saturn games (updated 04/12/08) (76 replies, posted in General discussion)
Checked both games left from my dumps.
Kyutenkai is ok.
What's inside the first sector of that 02:01 pregap (i.e. in the last sector of the datatrack, if we assume the pregap is 02:00)? I have Gale Racer (already dumped, ring is the same) http://redump.org/disc/3027/ - track02 pregap is clearly 02:01, but that sector contains pure data, which shouldn't be in the pregap. Unscrambled 0 sector also shows +222 offset, so it shouldn't be +810. We should either leave it as 02:00 or add that doubtful sector to the pregap, like it was done in similar cases with CD32 - http://redump.org/disc/3872/ and http://redump.org/disc/4032/

By the way on Q-SEC coloumn they have 0x02 (I don't know if this mean something and there are 2 dumps matching, so I think it's right).
0x02 means 2nd second 1 second = 75 frames, so after 01:74 it comes 02:00, then 02:01. So yes, they are fine.

Well I'd gladly accept any challenge to any of my claims of verification...hehe but I'll call bullshit if its something like Soul Caliber where I have 30 odd copies of the game & I run through them and come up with the same hashes.
I mean, you could do something wrong (like the case I've mentioned). Different people have less chances to do something wrong in a same way.

4. Sure. If you verified yourself with 2 discs then we accept that.

Re: jaguar/jaguar CD dumps? (8 replies, posted in General discussion)
NUON dumps are available, for example, on UG (those are plain DVDs). If you have any discs, you can dump them, they will be added into db.
As for Jaguar dumps - we won't be able to add them currently, as our database doesn't support multisession images and cuesheet can't be generated for such dumps, different format is needed. Same for Dreamcast MIL CD's and some other.

@F1ReB4LL, you told me before that Yuki was already dumping for tosec/dumpcast.. if that's the case, then she must be crazy to switch to a method which takes so much more effort. I suppose the only reason she would consider this at all is because you are pressing her to do this
We've decided that dumping for both projects can't be regarded as a crime

Re: Sega Dreamcast (23 replies, posted in General discussion)
Another reason is that so far there have only been 2 dumpers (including me), and there's no reason to assume that there will be more
Wtf? It were you, who turned away everyone interested in dumping DC, you were sending everyone to TOSEC and I remember this very clearly. As for now, defor was interested in dumping some DC, also Yuki was offering her help, if someone Japanese-speaking would be able to translate the guide (asapy?).

King of Fighters '95, The (J) (Track 04-05, 11-12, 14-15, 17-18, 20-21, 24-25)
http://redump.org/disc/1874/
SUB ---> T-3101G
Analysis: Actual pauses are exactly 150 sectors, but according to the Q-channel, those pregaps are 149 sectors long. So, it's just another case of the incorrect mastering
Should be redumped/fixed:
ClockWerx (J) (Track 05-06) - http://redump.org/disc/5088/ - iR0b0t's dump
O-chan no Oekaki Logic (J) (Track 06-07) - http://redump.org/disc/3315/ - p_star's dump, he doesn't have this CD anymore, should be just fixed?
Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special (J) (Track 18-19) - http://redump.org/disc/1747/ - p_star's & asapy's dump, p_star doesn't have this CD anymore (as usual)
Are those 02:02 gaps fine?
Andretti Racing (F) (Track 02-03) - http://redump.org/disc/3811/ - p_star's dump
Cyber Speedway (E) (Track 03-04, 06-07, 12-13, 13-14, 16-17, 18-19) - http://redump.org/disc/5196/ - iR0b0t's dump
NHL All-Star Hockey (E) (lots of) - http://redump.org/disc/3820/ - p_star's dump
Road & Track Presents - The Need for Speed (E) (Track 02-03, 09-10, 10-11) - http://redump.org/disc/4815/p_star's dump
Sega Rally Championship (U) (Track 05-06) - http://redump.org/disc/4892/ - p_star's & iR0b0t's dump
Thunderhawk 2 - Firestorm (G) (lots of) - http://redump.org/disc/5194/ - iR0b0t's dump (this one also has a weird single 02:01 gap, should also be checked)
Track02 pregap should be verified, if it's similar to the Gunbird case or not.
Kyuutenkai(J) - http://redump.org/disc/3716/ - Rocknroms' dump

About IFPI, this is not part of ring code.
It is. As I've said, it is a part of the ringcode, but it's not a part of the CD serial. Most of other CDs have their ringcodes preserved fully (like those "Masterd by Nimbus" signs and laser-burned "1:1"), and the database should be solid, with the same requirements for every system and every CD.

F1ReB4LL ---> IPF etc. is not part of ring code.
Even if it's not a part of the CD serial, it is the part of the ringcode, so it must be preserved. I'd like to see even those laser-burned digits, which are pretty common there.
