Re: Regarding database entry names

<r><QUOTE author="Deterous"><s>[quote=Deterous]</s>Put simply, ZERO3/Zero3 is not a word. Spaces always get added between words and using title case, unless it is an acronym (NASCAR Racing) or a compound word (whether a real one, or a made up one).<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

Okay, makes sense. Thanks ...

Re: Regarding database entry names

<r>Thanks for the detailed response.<br/>

<QUOTE author="Deterous"><s>[quote=Deterous]</s>Removing a space between ZERO and 3 is a stylization, which is retained in the foreign title like in this case, or sometimes as an alt title in the comments.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

I can accept that the space ...

Regarding database entry names

<r>I've been wondering how names for dumps are decided, especially when they appear to conflict with the name given on the physical media.<br/>
<br/>
Take Street Fighter Zero 3, for example. I have both the Saturn and PlayStation versions. On the discs themselves and on the case media, there is no ...

How are cuesheets confirmed?

<r>I feel like this is a stupid question, but how are cuesheets confirmed? I would expect any dump with at least one verification should have a confirmed cuesheet, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Here's one of my dumps that doesn't, for example:<br/>

Re: Trouble dumping section 40 of GD-ROM HD areas with DCdumper

<t>I was thinking about next trying to just discard the -c446261 parameter and see if I can zero in on the part(s) of the discs that are causing matching problems.<br/>
<br/>
Worthwhile? I understand Section 40 is dumped as a 10x larger chunk of data because those last sections tend to be trouble on ...

Re: Trouble dumping section 40 of GD-ROM HD areas with DCdumper

<t>I'll give that a try. Thanks for the tip. I've certainly let the H352C run for many passes over long periods of time. It's way slower and more finnicky about dumping than the H192C.<br/>

Dealing with this, it's amazing to me that there are as many Dreamcast dumps in the database as there ...

Trouble dumping section 40 of GD-ROM HD areas with DCdumper

<r>I've been trying to get a verified dump of a Dreamcast disc with DCdumper for the past month or so with no luck. I've tried with five different discs. I have two compatible drives for GD-ROM HD area dumping: a TS-H192C and a TS-H352C. Both reliably get matches on sections 1-39. They will both ...

Re: Alternative to CloneCD for burning an audio trap disc to dump GD-ROMs?

So I managed to get the CloneCD trial working on a fresh Windows 10 install.  Audio trap disc burned correctly and I'm test dumping a Dreamcast disc now.

I'd still be interested to know if anyone can get the trap disc to burn with another program.
