Hmm, I could have sworn that guide included SD card instructions. Well, when I get the chance I'll try an SD card dumper and let you know how it turns out. If you don't want to wait, the quickest way to find out would be to dump one yourself - if you have a game already in the database, dump that one and see if it matches.

BTW, I've never used an SD card to dump a disc and so don't have any experience with the dumpers, but DVD-SD is supposed to be able to dump a disc in about half the time as Waninkoko's dumper. You'll need an empty card to use it, though, as it reformats the card in the dumping process.

I was wondering, why do people prefer having the serial in the filename? AFAIK, it doesn't supply any useful information not already in the filename. It's not necessarily unique or even reliable, when you take into account GH releases, version differences, and the occasional printing error. If you need to know it, it can easily be looked up. The only use of it in the filename I can think of is if for some reason you know the serial, but not any part of the name of the game and want to find it. This has never happened to me, and I can't really think of a scenario where it could. Am I missing something?

I believe you want to ignore your drive's offset and use the disc's offset. BTW, the best way to learn this stuff is to try dumping a disc already in the database and see if it matches. That way you can be sure you're doing it right, too.

There are probably tricks and tools to do this, but the easiest way is to simply mount the image in Daemon Tools (or a similar program) and rerip it in the desired format.

Again, mount and rerip it as you would a disc. Then check to see if the ripped files match the database.
