Redump Forum

<r>That was a hell of a work. Someone should write a tutorial for SafeDisc + Mixed Mode. <IMG src="https://forum.redump.info/img/smilies/wink.png"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://forum.redump.info/img/smilies/wink.png"><LINK_TEXT text="img/smilies/wink.png">https://forum.redump.info/img/smilies/wink ...

Now that the audio tracks are properly ripped, I got one last question:

Is dumping the whole disc with DDump and extracting the first track (via Extract From-To: Length) from the image with IsoBuster a proper solution for a mixed mode SafeDisc CD?

<r><QUOTE author="amarok"><s>[quote=amarok]</s>The bigger problem I think is that you won't be able to detect a negative offset larger than your drive's positive offset with IsoBuster ^^ If you've read the guide you maybe know that you have to go back 150 sectors (in case of a 2 sec pregap) and ...

<r>Thanks! Now it all makes sense! It's always better to understand what you're doing and why. I ripped many audio discs with EAC but those issues with mixed mode CDs never occured to me.<br/>

<r><QUOTE author="r09"><s>[quote=r09]</s>Data tracks have the same offset, but it gets corrected automatically by the drive, using the sync marks (those 00 FF FF FF... at the start of each sector) as reference.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

I see! And since there is no sync mark on the audio tracks ...

<t>If I understand you correctly, this is ment to make sure the data track ends at the right sector and the audio track starts with the right one. Makes sense!<br/>
<br/>
Is there no write offset for data tracks, only for audio tracks? If I get a negative factory write offset, doesn't that mean, the ...

<t>Hi, do I really need to follow the steps for the combined offset in the tutorial? I have set the correct offset with Accurate Rip, shouldn't ripping the data track with IsoBuster and ripping the audio tracks with EAC/Accurate Rip be enough? Or is there something I'm missing?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks in ...
