Please just retain the second set of logs, you can rename it xxxx_logs-2.zip or whatever.
You can continue to post both identical discs in the same forum post.
You don't have to ensure that the correct submissioninfo.txt is inside the logs, it is the redumper/DIC logs we need.

Specifically with Ribshark's firmware.

Heya, thanks for posting.

We only add ringcode info for discs that have been dumped and confirmed to match. While it's extremely likely that your disc matches the one in redump, unfortunately your ringcode can't be added unless it was dumped to our standards. This is to ensure that all the data in redump is accurate and trustworthy.
If you do ever get the ability to dump the disc (easiest method is with a homebrew Wii) then let us know and it can be added.

Do you own physical discs and have a method of dumping them in order to contribute to redump?

The game in question: http://redump.org/disc/33636/
The game did not have any languages listed before.
I have confirmed it only has Spanish in-game and have updated the entry.
As there is only one language present, the dat name has not changed.

(Track 01) occurs for games with 10 or more tracks, to ensure they will be ordered correctly.
For games with fewer than 10 tracks, there is no need for the leading zero.

If you have an iphone (or other phone with a sufficiently powerful flash/camera), use an app that allows for taking video with the flash on. At the right angle, you can see the ringcodes like in the image attached. It can take a bit of trial-and-error to get the exact angle, but I've found it to be the easiest way.

It sounds like you have a Wii with homebrew. CleanRip is safe to use, it is used by many people here.
CleanRip provides more reliable DVD reading than "dvd dumper" and outputs a log file. That way we can be sure the hashes are correct.

1. Region is defined as the place the game was sold/marketed for/available in, not the regional restrictions of a console (e.g. PSX). Some PSX PAL discs were only sold in specific regions (e.g. Sweden, France as you've said), and did not receive Europe-wide releases, so are listed on redump by the more specific region identifier. An example would be http://redump.org/disc/6858/ which is the European release but only had English language available. http://redump.org/disc/18697/ is the French release with only French language, so is labelled as France in redump. Another example: There are a few Korea-region PSX discs that run on NTSC-J consoles that were only sold in Korea: http://redump.org/discs/system/psx/region/K

2. EXE date is the file date for the executable file on the disc, not exactly the disc the CD was printed but it gives some indication. The PVD date is another indicator as to which disc is "newer". Where revisions are clear, redump labels them as you've mentioned. In the case of Armored Core (USA), the EXE date is identical and the Reprint's PVD date is not valid, it is not a clear revision. Reprint is labelled as "EDC: Yes" which is my guess as to the difference between the disc dumps, it is likely the actual game content is the same, however I am not 100% sure on this. So for these alt/rerelease/reprint versions, so it is up to you.

3. You can view a single category in redump with http://redump.org/discs/system/psx/category/Games or you can filter the redump PSX dat by category using your dat tool of choice.

I made that comment in reference to RPCS3's mention of IRD files here: https://rpcs3.net/quickstart

But, it shouldn't be too difficult to add decryption to the tool, perhaps in the next version!

Sorry, I shortened the printed serial, it does have -STD. Here's the links (can't be viewed without logging in).
BCUS-98195 (BVSS-032970A1): http://redump.org/disc/48706/
BCUS-98182-MGS, BCUS-98182-STD (BVSS-020710A1): http://redump.org/disc/48705/

However please do make an account and contribute when an admin gets to making you an account! (Unfortunately Hotmail, Outlook, Gmail and Web.de may block emails from redump, so you may need to use a different email, protonmail is a free email that you can use if you need one).

I have not used that specific drive model, but you will need to ensure it is a JB8 model and it will need to be flashed with specific firmware:
http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title= … T_firmware

This wiki page is still a work-in-progress, it currently suggests using the 3.02 firmware, but Ribshark's custom 3.10 firmware is now compatible with redumper and can be recommended for use.
