Re: GDI naming convention (5 replies, posted in General discussion)
I was told that nullGDR_Win32 plugin reads filenames with whitespaces correctly, that's why I have added full names to GDI generator.

Re: how custom Disc number field is meant to be? (17 replies, posted in General discussion)
"Disc 0 of 4" would look quite strange, but as we don't write total discs number to the filename, any custom numbering scheme can be used.

Re: Inclusion of SBI files in the dat? (26 replies, posted in General discussion)
Redump can actually generate SBI files with CRC-16 (and without extra header), just replace "sbi" with "lsd", for example: http://redump.org/disc/2371/lsd/
The format of the file is simple: 3 bytes for MSF and 12 bytes for Q-channel data.

Re: i still think the way PSX serials are handled in .dat is wrong (17 replies, posted in General discussion)
1. what is the logic behind current assignation of serials to Japanese titles?
Internal serials + disc/box serials.
2. why are serials relevant at all in .dat file?
I have always been against serials in dat files, so switching to the No-Intro naming convention seems to be a nice idea for me
3. what is the purpose of .dat?
Dat files do not have to contain all the information from the db. Their only purpose is to identify dump, so any information which doesn't participate in making filenames unique is redundant in dat.

Re: [SS] Something about dumping Saturn games (updated 04/12/08) (76 replies, posted in General discussion)
Sectors with mode=0x02 don't have any info about current MSF, track or index numbers (only EAN and CRC-16), so if such sector appears between track n and track n+1, it can be considered by the software as belonging to either of the two tracks. The real sector where the new track starts should be the last one with zeroes in channel P (pause) for the most of the discs.

Re: HDD crash, moving to a new hosting (10 replies, posted in News)
As you may have noticed, the site hasn't been working for a few days. Unfortunately this is due to a HDD crash, which has happened on an Sunday evening. Currently we are moving to the new hosting (yes, no more downtime and slowdowns — thanks TeeCee & DaveH), but it will take some time to restore all the info (not everything was backed up properly). Thank you for your patience!
Update: forum is back!

Re: About Bonus Audio CD (8 replies, posted in General discussion)
I have at least 3 games with bonus audio CD, are they needed and how I have to dump them?
Well, although some may disagree, I thinkk that each bonus Audio CD is part of the game and should be dumped too.
Pregap of first track is 2.00+0.37. How can I find offset, if there's one?
There is no way to detect an offset if disc has no data tracks, so they should with 0 write offset.
And file format: pcm as games or wav?
PCM.

Are you using the latest ClrMame version which generates new XML dats? If so, you should wait until I write a new datfile parser or post data in the forum.
