It's always been encrypted DVD-Video into redump. That's how the guides have always specified them too. DVD Decrypter was just used as a mechanism to check if the disc had protection. Now that DIC/DICUI supports properly dumping them this should be less ambiguous, only accept discs dumped with DIC/DICUI for DVD-Video.

Hi sarami, i've noticed Xbox One and PS4 discs no longer have the layerbreak info in _disc.txt
Where is this info? We wish to retrieve it for the DICUI output file for easy new dump submission.

>How about other tool except DIC and IsoBuster?
I also dumped with IMG Burn and Dvdisaster once, both gave different hashes than the rest (and sizes I believe).

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
Back to the PS4 Kiosk discussion, I've been able to get ISO Buster to output the disc i'm testing with repeatable hashes 3 or 4 times. DIC still outputting different hashes each time. Perhaps DIC isn't reading the sectors correctly or reporting read errors properly, or maybe ISO Buster just keeps making the same mistakes and so the result is the same hashes...

Topic: Xbox 360 Press Demo / Beta? (1 replies, posted in General discussion)
I recently purchased this DVD-R with a batch of Press Asset discs: https://imgur.com/a/fh1W9ht
However my computer wouldn't read it on a file level, except for via ISO Buster.
It seemed to dump fine with ISO Buster: https://imgur.com/a/CbN75lI
It dumped fine with the DIC dvd command, but not xbox command. Both DIC and ISO Buster dumps matched. I guess it's DVD-Rom formatted?
Anyone know what's going on with this disc?
-----
Edit: I talked to someone knowledgeable and he told me it's just a standard dev disc making this a beta.

Near sector it slowed down/chopping progress: 22600000/23652352
I dumped the same disc twice with the new test build.
dump 1:
<rom name="dump1.iso" size="48440016896" crc="eeb8ef26" md5="e94131750b44decbab717a68165d355c" sha1="db7fe92fbe5d337ec1f9f5e464ab76f543963e42" />
dump 2:

Hmmm at least the sizes are the same.

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
Official Kiosk discs are BD-Rs. Same as Wii U did with CAT-R for their kiosk discs. I guess they didn't want to spend money pressing kiosk discs.
On a separate subject, Wii U CAT-R discs must be dumped on Wii U kiosk machines since they use a special Dev key (they're essentially no different than burnt dev discs in that regards).
I wonder if PS4 has a similar mechanism, but no key is required for dumping regular PS4 retail discs, so not sure...
I can send you a PS4 kiosk disc if you wish to investigate.

Re: DiscImageCreator (3,521 replies, posted in General discussion)
Returning to the conversation about PS4 kiosk discs (BD-R):
I bought some retail PS4 discs to test dumping, the result was great, they dumped fine and the non-missing ones verified redump entries properly.
However...
Back to dumping PS4 official kiosk discs, which are on BD-Rs, different hashes and iso sizes are returned every dump.
Near the last 5-10% of the dump the dumping sector progress slows WAY down and starts sputtering even a little bit. My discs are in perfect condition so that's not the problem. I'm guessing these require some kind of encryption / keys? Maybe they even use BD-Video keys? Anyone have experiencing dumping encrypted BD-Video can advise so I can test?

Re: Defining Format (4 replies, posted in General discussion)
An Xbox is required to get the full features of this disc.
You can play all features of this Disc on an Xbox, you can't on a DVD-Player.
Going back to GameShark Updates, platform was determined by required hardware to access the features of the disc. They are technically CD-Audio, but to access the features requires GameShark hardware.

Considering the DVD-Video spec is part of the Xbox spec, these should be Xbox no? The Xbox playable attribute exists outside of the DVD-Spec as an additional format change. Kind of like how PlayStation 1 games could have Audio Tracks making them Audio CDs, but the unique additional playable aspect is what designates the format. The data track is "additional" to CD Audio aspect of PSX discs, the Xbox playable attribute is "additional" to the DVD-Video aspect of Xbox discs.

Re: XML Submission to Redump >THE FUTURE OF REDUMP.ORG DUMPING< @iRobot (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
you still need to fill all those fields by yourself via some offline form
Incorrect, to clarify DICUI fills in a LOT of the data for you, for example:
*PVD data
*size
*checksums
*cue
*version number for PS2 games
*DMI/PFI/SS
It can also do system (specified during system input in DICUI) and format (CD-Rom / DVD-5, DVD-9).
That's a lot of tedious work which can be flubbed if you're adding disc after disc. It will shave a lot of time off the process and increase accuracy if we could just upload an xml of this data output by dicui.

Re: PSP dumping (75 replies, posted in General discussion)
Can someone who speaks Japanese reach out to the PSP Filer dev asking if he would take on this challenge of dumping these types of discs? His contact info is here http://www.geocities.jp/mediumgauge/
Basically just translate this message and send:
"Hi, thanks so much for your great app PSP Filer!
We're dumping discs for redump.org preservation project. We preserve PERFECT dumps of discs for our dat.
We use PSP Filer as a rule for all our PSP dumps because the app dumps all game UMDs perfectly. However there are a few oddities which we are unable to dump perfectly with PSP Filer because they have video partitions, such as the Stealth movie / WipeOut demo combo disc http://www.mobygames.com/images/covers/ … -cover.jpg
Also "Demo Disc for PSP Vol. 1" has this partition as well.
As of right now there is no known "PERFECT" way to dump these discs. Would you be willing to update PSP Filer to handle these situations so we can perfectly preserve these discs?
Thanks for your time "

That's right, all that info that's inputted here was done autoMAGICally!!! (sure there's still some physical data that needs to be entered).
Well what if we could auto input this into a redump.org submission in "ADD DISC"? WELL SOON YOU CAN (pending iRobot/etc adds the feature).
darksabre76 is ready to code an xml output with all the info, and we just need redump.org to accept submission via this xml to auto-fill this info. No more hours of manually entering data, no more second checking to see if it's correct, NO MORE HUMAN ERROR!!1

DICUI 1.07 has been released https://github.com/reignstumble/DICUI/releases/tag/1.07
It fixes many quirks/crashes that some of us were experiencing plus offers new features.
*Separated system and media type for easier navigation
*Combined instances of single- and dual-layer discs
*Removed reliance on sg-raw and psxt001z
*Added system and disc type to the submission info
*First attempt at getting current disc type
*Made the three PSX-specific fields (EDC, Anti-modchip, and LibCrypt) automatically filled in, when possible
*Many, many, many behind the scenes updates for speed, future features, and stability
Thanks to sarami, ReignStumble, darksabre76, and Jack for your incredible contributions.

Thank you guys for your patience, a major update is due for DICUI very soon, bringing it to 1.07. Lots will be changed under the hood. I hope you will test the new version upon release and report if these problems still exist.
