Re: Japanese Title help (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
I agree with the colons, but not the space.
the covers don't show a space in the Vol.2 naming.
But let's be honest here... I am wrong 80% of the time.

Re: Japanese Title help (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
User7 is correct, Should be submitted as
Desire Koushiki Digital Genga-shuu
and
PC-FX Best Character Koushiki Digital Genga-shuu Vol.2
even then the Moderator who adds the dumps will correct them to follow the proper naming convention.
*** EDIT ****
Didnt see the original poster. so like yeah man, go with ^those and they will get fixed, just be like me and say it's a load of Squiggles 
(whatever I put is invariably wrong haha)

I really don't understand how this differs from say PC pressed games that might be sent around the world or to different, specific countries.
Good point, I agree.
there was a couple of my own dumps that I didnt understand the region of when added, namely
http://redump.org/disc/64771/
and
http://redump.org/disc/69152/
One was bought from a US seller and the other a Japanese auction.
but i guess if they were manufactured in france for worldwide distribution then that was the region assigned to the disc.

Re: Region should be country of Distribution, not country of Manufacturing (10 replies, posted in General discussion)
yeah, Ignore that bad logic, if you go my manufactured region then all discs mastered by nimbus should be assigned to Wales.
** EDIT **
ah, but speaking of Unlicensed discs, quite often they come in a choice of packaging styles (speaking specifically of the Dreamcast stuff)
you can order some of them in EU/USA/Japan packaging but they will all be manufactured in the same place, so i guess the home region would take precendent then or as User7 says, 'world'
a very recent example is Xeno Crysis from BitMap Beureau
https://shop.bitmapbureau.com/collectio … &pid=1
you can order with any of the 3 region styling but they will be all manfactured in the same place and i guess the discs are the same contents (until proven otherwise).

Re: What's the meaning of M1 M2 M3 M4 M5 M6 you got it. (4 replies, posted in Guests & account requests)
You mean 1M, 2M, etc.
it relates to the mastering code for the disc.
Here's an example of a Game disc where multiple pressings / masters exist
1M
http://redump.org/disc/3248/
2M
http://redump.org/disc/24292/
in most if not all cases the only difference is that the Audio tracks are shifted slightly differently (offset)
note how the hashes for the data track are identical.

Re: Looking for repair/replacement for PX-716UF in UK (12 replies, posted in General discussion)
I finally got around to testing my pile of plextors. (like ~25 drives) the other day.
by far the biggest failure rate was from the PX-708A and PX-716A drives that i had piled up.
100% failure from the PX-708A (1/1 drives faulty)
50% failure rate from the PX-716A (3 of 6 were completely knackered)
but then again the one PX-716UF I have has been a really stable drive.

One of the guys more proficient with Ninty dumping will confirm but i think the correct syntax for that system is
Discimagecreator.exe dvd <drive letter> "path\filename.iso" <speed> /raw
try tagging that /raw onto the end of your cmd and see if it helps.

Re: account request (1 replies, posted in Guests & account requests)
Hi a_team,
The data for Playstation is fully viewable to unregistered users @ http://redump.org/discs/system/psx/
Currently there are hashes for 10,205 Discs for that system to assist you in verifying that your own backups are correct.
you can apply various filters or use the search function at the top of the page to help find the disc that you are interested in.
DAT files and cuesheets are available to download to use with your preferred file management software to assist with renaming and compressing your backups to match our naming convention.
If by 'looking for' you are under the impression that you can download the game discs here, then you are mistaken, Redump is simply a database of file hashes, cataloging optical media for many different gaming consoles and computing platforms. There are no 'ISOs' or 'ROMs' available on the site. This is a common misconception, the Redump community wouldn't still be around after so many years if that were the case.

Re: Suggestion: Add SHA-256 (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
didn't it take google engineers like 100 years of CPU time to do a POC collision for SHA-1 ?
edit: nope i was a mile off,
Nine quintillion (9,223,372,036,854,775,808) SHA1 computations in total
6,500 years of CPU computation to complete the attack first phase
110 years of GPU computation to complete the second phase
I don't think we have anything to be worried about there for the forseable future.

which image exactly ?
is that the only track that needs fixing? that behaviour doesn't sound right.
here for example is my recently submitted dump (for Redump) of "Chocolat - Maid Cafe 'Curio' Taikenban"
it's not even in the redump DB yet.
if i put my binary files in the working folder.
add the destination DAT (in this case "Sega Dreamcast - Samplers (TOSEC-v2019-12-22_CM).dat")
select the dump and destination folder and click convert.
all three files (tracks) are rebuilt to the folder i selected as the destination:
The output folder then contains a set of files that match the TOSEC / Dumpcast dump:
