Re: Analyzing Alcohol 120% DPM
<r>One thing about dumping DPM timings that should be mentioned explicitly, is that <B><s>[b]</s>a constant angular velocity reading seems mandatory<e>[/b]</e></B>.<br/>

Obviously, the shape of the timings curve strongly suggests that, but the best argument is in fact the inner/outer edge ...

The two curves at the bottom focus on the first 750 samples to zoom in on the first region's pattern found in SecuROM 4.8+ discs.<br/>

Re: Analyzing Alcohol 120% DPM
<r>I have added a graphical representation of the timings in DPM SCN. Simply drag and drop a mds file on 'scan' and press Escape key to close the window. A corresponding .bmp file will be created, along with a .log file that contains the stats and all DPM values in a human readable format.<br/>

Re: Analyzing Alcohol 120% DPM
<r>I did a bit of testing with different time stamp functions. It seems that after simply iterating a printf in a for loop, clock(), QueryPerformanceCounter() in Windows, and clock_gettime() in Linux give extremely close results when CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID is used.<br/>

Re: Analyzing Alcohol 120% DPM
Wish I could help you, but for now that's beyond my understanding.
All I know is that BWA builder had an alleged precision of about 6 µs.

Re: Analyzing Alcohol 120% DPM
<r>About reverse engineering, I'm not sure that the alcohol application is the best candidate to start from.
