Do you know if DiscImageCreator is stripping out subcode channels R through W in the .sub file?
I recently dumped a CD+G disc with both CloneCD and DiscImageCreator. Testing the ccd/img/sub produced by CloneCD on my Sega Saturn produces the graphics I expect. With the ccd/img/sub produced by DiscImageCreator, it does not produce any graphics whatsoever, as though it was a plain audio CD.

A simple windows batch script that will recompress .zip to .7z (depending on where 7-zip was installed, you may need to edit the paths):
@echo off
for %%F in (*.zip,*.rar) do ( "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" x -y -o"%%F_tmp" "%%F" * & pushd %%F_tmp & "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -y -r -t7z -mx9 -md1024m -mfb256 ..\"%%~nF".7z * & popd & rmdir /s /q "%%F_tmp" )
Or the following, which will automatically split the 7-zip into 2000000-byte chunks that can be directly attached to the post:
@echo off
for %%F in (*.zip,*.rar) do ( "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" x -y -o"%%F_tmp" "%%F" * & pushd %%F_tmp & "C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" a -y -r -t7z -mx9 -md1024m -mfb256 -v2000000b ..\"%%~nF".7z * & popd & rmdir /s /q "%%F_tmp" )

You can re-compress zip files to 7z which can sometimes result in file sizes being reduced below the 2000000 byte limit (~1.90MB) per file.

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,536 replies, posted in General discussion)
I've recently encountered an issue where DiscImageCreator is failing to report DVD read errors on multiple discs, while Isobuster and redumper both report read errors. I believe these read errors are resulting from hardware failures from my internal DVD drive, and not disc errors (they are flawless discs and read without errors on other drives). I have experienced these symptoms with builds 20220707, 20230303, and 20230413. This results in 2048-byte blocks containing NULL bytes instead of the correct bytes.
In DIC code, I see that it doesn't directly check ScsiStatus, but rather:
if (swb.SenseData.SenseKey == SCSI_SENSE_NO_SENSE &&
swb.SenseData.AdditionalSenseCode == SCSI_ADSENSE_NO_SENSE &&
swb.SenseData.AdditionalSenseCodeQualifier == 0x00) {
bNoSense = TRUE;
}
...
if (bNoSense) {
*byScsiStatus = SCSISTAT_GOOD;
}
Is it possible that because DIC doesn't directly check ScsiStatus, that it is missing some bad reads?
Attached are logs for the GOOD and BAD dump from DiscImageCreator for a specific disc with the failing drive (both report no errors in the log).

Here is an example disc where there are differences vs. redumper's universal hash:

Here are the logs: http://forum.redump.org/misc.php?action … download=1
The checksum for the total img file (074a677b) was correct.
Any ideas what could have caused DIC to produce a bad dump of these two tracks?

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,536 replies, posted in General discussion)
Hi sarami,
I think I found a bug in DIC.
I have this CD-R audio CD.
DIC determines an incorrect track 1 / track 2 boundary.
This is what IsoBuster shows for the disc.
DIC produces the following:
<rom name="PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 1).bin" size="25552128" crc="169df37b" md5="e3428a7bb35692ea9625202190220206" sha1="42da4a8b5171e1b3b66a0511611ac2671e402b13" />
<rom name="PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 2).bin" size="28602672" crc="42f4fccc" md5="1c2daf66fa7b437808da638622c8bdf4" sha1="60d20f2c386c74531dd12c8b91ad174e92690d1f" />
FILE "PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 1).bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 AUDIO
INDEX 01 00:00:00
FILE "PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 2).bin" BINARY
TRACK 02 AUDIO
INDEX 01 00:00:00
This is what I think DIC should produce instead:
<rom name="PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 1).bin" size="25199328" crc="f6d1e0ec" md5="35e6f50c3e0ec2628dd14ee3495600ff" sha1="4b3312cfd071c7010d4a3c6949216ffad764bfc2" />
<rom name="PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 2).bin" size="28955472" crc="92541dae" md5="11a72eb9f5c78491d5af695711379466" sha1="46372e3a0fabea96d0ee9e3620fddb47f0dbb60e" />
FILE "PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 1).bin" BINARY
TRACK 01 AUDIO

FILE "PGS - Promo Disc (USA) (Track 2).bin" BINARY
TRACK 02 AUDIO
INDEX 00 00:00:00
INDEX 01 00:02:00
LBA 10714 belongs to the track 2 but I think DIC takes it as a part of track 1 and just goes 150 sectors deeper than needed
similar issue is LBA 23025, it's part of lead-out if you carefully pay attention
