Agreed for this. But the same argument (that it will take hours to properly dump sub ...

<t>No, I didn't made any mistake while posting the dumps and Plextor ones are not the same: There are three 01s in the D8 dump (channels R-W) where in the READ CD dump are 00s. The only mistake I made is that XORing as explained does NOT result in Plextor's READ CD result but in LG's one. Tonight I ...

<r>Thanks for testing the command. I'm afraid I run into bigger problems right now: PX-716A returns inconsistent subchannel data between the mentioned D8 and normal READ CD commands.<br/>

<r>A little update on this topic: I will first concentrate on dumping discs as F1ReB4LL suggests, need to get hold of a scratched CD (I think some bullshit early 90s audio CD which I have plenty of and a nail will do) in order to verify that the D8 command I found out probably returning subchannel ...

<t>I'll install ICQ or an IRC client on weekend. I have already finished the thin JNI DeviceIO DLL for Win32/SPTI and used it successfully in Java (plain dump of all sectors of a disc using READ CD CDBs). First I'll need to read and interprete TOC properly, I'll care about that until weekend, so I ...

Seconded. The only problem I have with this choice is that I'll have to familiarize myself with JNI which is used to glue native DLLs and the JVM ...

<r>It's fine that you are willing to provide background info as soon as needed. And here is your volunteer - but with the following drawbacks (at least in the eyes of most coders):<br/>
- GUI tool will be coded in Delphi 7 (alternatively commandline-based Java with native DLL usage)<br/>
- It will ...

<t>I guess because both are common file extensions for the data they contain. The resulting file contains plain 2352 bytes for each sector, no file header, no trailer, nothing else. When talking about files with .iso extension it's more common for them to hold 2048 bytes for each sector, i.e. the ...
