Hello all,

As some of you know, MPF 2.2 stable is now released:

https://github.com/SabreTools/MPF/releases

PLEASE UPDATE TO THE LATEST STABLE VERSION OF MPF if you are using an older version!

This helps to make sure your dumps are accurate and up-to-date, and greatly assists the redump staff with your submissions.  I know some people are using older versions of MPF and even DICUI in some cases.  Unless there is a specific or special reason why you must use an older version, please update.  Thank you!

Hello and sorry for the delay.  It's great that you already have a Plextor.  Do you plan on dumping and submitting your discs / verifications to the redump database? If so, please bear with us and an admin will approve your account when they can.  Thanks!

Redump does not store game data, only metadata information such as hashes and the information you see on disc entry pages.

After closer inspection - it turns out this disc is indeed dual-layer.  Just a relatively uncommon case where it is so small yet dual-layer.  The rings certainly indicated dual-layer, but we've also seen some disc with 2 "layers" of rings but not actual dual-layer disc.  Anyway, it's a bit confusing, but the disc is in the database now

http://redump.org/disc/84627/

A request has been submitted to ir0b0t to fix this by changing DVD-5 to DVD-9.

Thanks!

"UPX" is shown in IMAGE_SECTION_HEADER of SETUP.EXE. Please check if it is compressed by UPX or not.
If yes, DIC is not supported it yet. 20210401 version does not output IMAGE_EXPORT_DIRECTORY yet.

I do not know how to check if something is compressed with UPX or not.  ?

Also, I've talked to a few people and we are wondering what the purpose of the version checking / displaying is? Especially if it is causing DIC to crash and not complete dumps.

@sarami,

I noticed an issue/bug/etc that started with DIC version 20210601.  When I try to dump certain PC discs, the status reaches "Checking EXE" and crashes immediately and will not dump. 

I believe it is something to do with some file checking or version checking that DIC is doing on files on the disc, and I'm not sure why.

On my current example, I see the line:  AUTORUN.EXE: File Version 4, 0, 0, 1 and then Checking EXE     1,
and then it crashes immediately every time.

I tested dumping on DIC 20210401 and it worked perfectly fine and this file/version checking didn't happen.

The crash occurs in both 0601 and 0701.  Please let me know if you need anymore information.  I've attached logs for the unsuccessful dump on 0601.
