Oh, I see,
What do you think we could do by now?
Is there a way do dump the pregap for that track?

Re: What's Dreamcast Dump Tool? (39 replies, posted in General discussion)
Yeah, I agree with you, apparently httpd-ack doesn't dump pregap of the data tracks, that's why track 2 have 150 sectors less, and track 20 too. In the case of track 2 it's easy to fix because it's readable by EAC and PC drives, but in the other case we must guess.
I have not moved any data, I generated 'em using hex-editor (150 sectors filled with zeros), the dump from the last data track (track 21) start with info from files, not pause... and the end of track 20 ends with audio, I'm assuming that what it's missing is the track 21 pregap, so I generate it and inserted at the end of the previous track (track 20).

Re: What's Dreamcast Dump Tool? (39 replies, posted in General discussion)
Well, basically that's what I did..
* Fixed track 2 according to EAC
* Added the pregap to the track 4
* Added the pregap from the 3rd data track (track 21) to the end of last audio track (track 20).
Hope we can discover more soon, anyway, fix any error is easy cause everything here is about pregap info.

Re: What's Dreamcast Dump Tool? (39 replies, posted in General discussion)
I have 15-20 discs, I bough 'em on December and until today opened the boxes.
OK, now you mentioned about the second track, actually I dumped 'em using httpd-ack (I was being lazy to open ISOBuster, open EAC, and everything else just to dump those 2 small tracks) but I did it today, and noticed that the second audio track is the same on all the discs I have dumped so far, but also noticed something else that happens even on PSX games, when the disc only have 1 audio track after the 1st data track (1st session on all Dreamcast discs) EAC reports 0 seconds pregap, which is wrong... so dumped on EAC the audio track, and then added manually the pregap to the beginning of file, and after that the file was 150 sector bigger that my actual dumps so far on httdp-ack... the info section matched by the files dumped with httdp-ack were missing 150 sectors at the end comparing with the files dumped using EAC and corrected manually, I think that it maybe a bug on httpd-ack.
the info for the second tracks is this
Size : 1,589,952 bytes
8557fcaa ?CRC32*track02.bin
824ff123fbce45b5883962eb3fa43cab *track02.bin

As far as the disc offset refers, I checked using ISOBuster and px_d8, the results were the same, I'm 110% sure the offsets are correct.
Well, I think that we have problems with the games with audio tracks, I noticed that with the current info submitted to the database, the last data track starting position doesn't match the same number as the gdi provided by httpd-ack and by using the redump.org gdi file the game doesn't start in nullDC.
In httpd-ack's gdi file the starting position is 150 sectors ahead that the calculated using the tracks sizes currently in the database, I think that this have to do with same issue observed on the first session of the disc, httpd-ack eats 150 sectors at the end of the last audio track, if I manually append 150 at the last audio track the position match and the game start.
So, I think that, at least by now, until somebody comes with better solution or explanation, that for games with audio tracks, the last audio track must have 150 appended to the end of the file, so start position of the last track match with the gdi script and the dump effectively runs on nullDC.
Also, I found this thread on ngemu.com, I think that the script should consider the control field (third parameter) in the gdi files

Re: What's Dreamcast Dump Tool? (39 replies, posted in General discussion)
Well, if you are sure, then yes.
Yeah, I'm sure, if I hex-edit the track the info start to appear at the very beginning of the file.
Also, if go back 150 sectors from the end of the track, a start to go back from that point I can see the end of the audio info.
Another question, do I have to post a cue.sheet for the dumps that I submit to the database or just the GDI file?

Re: What's Dreamcast Dump Tool? (39 replies, posted in General discussion)
Though it's relatively easy to fix these dumps: combined offset can be calculated by dumping 1st session using our guide and then comparing it with dump made from the console. Then all audio tracks in 2nd session should be shifted by the combined offset.
I noticed that using httpd-ack the audio tracks doesn't have the pregap at the beginning of the tracks, instead they have the pre-gap of the next track appended at the end of the current track.
Should I fix this by cutting the last 150 sector on the audio tracks and pasting them at the beginning?

Re: About "bad" headers and image errors (24 replies, posted in General discussion)
I found those kind of problem with one of my drives on data tracks, my solution was to dump always at low speed, if I dump on this drive letting the drive control the speed 90% of the times it ends up with one or two errors on sectors, so I use nero speedrive tool, set it at low speed 4x-8x.. and the resulting image is good, match my other drives. Don't know if it's your case but at least with me it works that way. hope it helps you

It the same, this is a screenshot of the lead-out area on CDReader, I definitely think that that's all the info in the track.

Re: Offset detection using the D8 read command - Discussion (67 replies, posted in General discussion)
Isn't the drive offset subtraction only necessary to get the absolute write offset of the disc? He should dump with +702 in EAC / -702 PerfectRip
Yeah, you are right, it was a typo. I corrected my redaction.
37 2008-02-08 18:56:41
Re: Offset detection using the D8 read command - Discussion (67 replies, posted in General discussion)
So in the end: 588 + 114 = 702
I used 702 as correction value in perfectrip and I got the dump.
I checked the tracks with CD Mage, 0 errors.I wait for confirmation on my offset calculation to submit the dump data.
Thank in advance
Ok, I'm assuming you used the +30 offset drive to get your px_d8 data in your first post, you calculations would be
[(28.5*16)/4]-(-1*588)-(30)=672, you must subtract the drive offset to that value to get the disc offset and dump the disc, that would be 702-(30) = +672

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
I tried themabus suggestion, these were the results:
* None of my drives saw more info that the info dumped by EAC with the LiteOn drive
* LG drive couldn't retrieve info beyond the leadout in ISOBuster
* In ISOBuster the Plextor drive was able to retrieve the info dumped by the LiteOn on EAC, that's good, but after the same position were the LiteOn showed data, in the Plextor there were just zeros.
I think I could say that at least in this version of the disc, that all the audio in the disc, the LiteOn drive retrieve all the info it can on EAC, the Plextor confirmed that info using themabus method on ISOBuster, none other of my drives retrieve more data after that.

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
"the plextor drive even loose data before that position without sync errors"
what did you mean here?
I was trying to say that the plextor drive could not read the entire track at the end and didn't throw any sync errors.. so if indeed there's data beyond the position specified in my post, the drive could not retrieve it.
Will try the sugestion from themabus today and see what I can find..

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
It's funny, it's exactly 0x930 bytes, 1 sector... the amount of data that you have in your track it's one sector... even if my dump was made with a big negative offset drive, I tried playing with the offset correction on EAC, but no luck, the LiteOn drive can see any data after 0x14B40A0, in your dump the data end at 0x14B49D0; maybe it was manufactured that way, I don't know... the plextor drive even loose data before that position without sync errors.. in the LiteOn if I increment the offset it 2 sectors it start to show sync errors.

Also, when I examined the bin files, I noticed that some tracks begin earlier in your dump and other got portions of the previous track at the beginning of the dump, look this example of your Track 04, the audio start in the position 0x53C
In my dump the audio start at position 0x0 on all audio track with 0 seconds pregap, and all the track ends with zeros, look in the dump of your Track 05 the audio start at position 0x548, and the track has portions of the previous track, at least compared to my dump.
Also, I included sample tracks of my dump for you to get a better idea of what I'm talking about.
I don't why IdSoftware or Activition mastered this disk like this... it's weird...

@pnkiller, what's the offset difference between the 2 Hexen II dumps? are you sure there isn't a sector offset caused by the bug?
Vigi, could you repost track samples for your Hexen II dump, this thing is taking to long
I tried to download the ones you posted earlier, but they are not available on the server anymore

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
Finally I want to know how much do I have to remove from the data track, is it just the 1.73 pregap or the fact that there's a 2 sector correction has some influence?
I removed just the 1.73 pregap, if you hexedit the track, and backtrack the pregap length (1.73 - 148 sectors - 348096 bytes) from the end of the track, you will see the garbage data, 1 byte more and you will see the last sector, sync data, ecc headers, etc. just remove the pregap and you will have your track 1

edit: pnkiller, can't you install the plextor into your pc?
Sorry, it's a notebook
@pnkiller, what's the offset difference between the 2 Hexen II dumps? are you sure there isn't a sector offset caused by the bug?
I don't know right now, I will dump the entire disk into a bin file and apply the psxt001z track method to obtain your checksums, then will compare against mines and tell you the offset difference.. I post them later

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
sorry for the delay.. the last track I dumped with my LiteOn LTN323 -1164 Drive offset... since the disc had a big positive offset, i give it a try with this drive and in fact it got info after the position were my other drives was throwing just zeros, dumped 3 times, so since the drive didn't show errors on EAC I decided to post the info for the last track dumped with the liteon drive.
EDIT 1
Yes, my LG and plextor drive do overread in the lead-out, but I'm presuming that since these game has huge positives offset, the overread is not enough, with both drives the hashes matched, but comparing against the dump obtained with the LiteOn drive they star showing zeros in the last portion of the dump were the liteon dump showed data.

Re: Quake II pc offset & gap (43 replies, posted in General discussion)
ok, I cannot dump in PerfectRip cause my plextor drive is connected via FireWire, and PRip doesn't see it.
this is command line for dx_d8, no subs, here my output with the px_d8 command.
C:\px_d8 k: 0 0

My calculation was =[(7.5*16)/4]-(-4*588)-(30)=2352, my drive is a Plextor PX-760A, this is the screenshoot from CDReader showing 4 sectors behind gap with no subs.
Also, the offset was calculated with the old method and also gave the same results, Gaps were detected on 4 drives using EAC, 3 of them gave me the same result (Plextor PX-760A, LG GDR8164B, LG GSA-4082N) and 1 drive (LiteOn SOHW-1633S) gave 1 sector difference (1.74) on first track, LiteOn LTN-323 doesn't support Method A gap detection on EAC, so it was left behind.
I went with the 1.73 pregap from the 3 drives to calculate offset using ISOBuster method.
I calculated the disc offset on 3 drives using ISOBuster method (Plextor PX-760A, LG GDR8164B & LiteOn LTN-323) and the disc offset gave me the same result, see the screenshots showing the garbage data.
So definitively I think that the offset is right and the gap are OK... although I'm open to suggestions..

edit: I just remember something.. older plextor drives have a bug where the normal read mode outputs a different sector offset than d8 mode.. I'm pretty sure that +222 is the correct write offset after all.. but if possible try confirming the offset using the old method..
I hope this doesn't affect any other users and any current dumps in the database..
I tried with other drives using old method and all of them show me zeros, even my LG +667 drive offset can see garbage on this disc, that makes me think that in fact this game has that big negative offset, if I had a bigger positive offset drive I could confirm this.. the game is Creature Shock for PC...

EDIT
I forgot to mention that this game is fact a IBM PC game, mixed disc 1 Data track and 2 audio tracks.. and that using old method ISOBuster doesn't show me garbage data on the beginning of the pregap for the first audio track on any of my drives, just zeros.

Hi, could you please examine this output from px_d8 and correct me if I get it wrong with this method.

Here the sync header start at row 63
that would be 63*4 = 252
In the sync header (00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF00018202) the data is read from sector 2 , so this would be
252 - (588*2) = -924 and the drive offset is +30, so the disc would be -954??
