Need .sub file analysis

Post by r09 »

I've been trying to dump another PC-98 game, but I've run into a little problem. EAC detects the track 2 pregap as 2.00, PerfectRip doesn't detect anything, and if I go back 150 sectors from the start I see a data sector. Usually this would suggest that the pregap is actually 1.74, but a data-audio pregap of less than 2 seconds would be very strange, so I took a look at the subs... and I could be wrong, but I think the problem is those so-called EAN sectors that seem to appear in a few Saturn games. Can someone with more experience in those matters help me with this?

Here's the .sub file:

I've detected 1.74 (5181-5032 = 149)

FILE "Track01.bin" BINARY
  TRACK 01 MODE?/2352
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
FILE "Track02.bin" BINARY
  TRACK 02 AUDIO
    INDEX 00 00:00:00
    INDEX 01 00:01:74
FILE "Track03.bin" BINARY
  TRACK 03 AUDIO
    INDEX 00 00:00:00
    INDEX 01 00:02:00
Checked, yes right 1.74

EDIT: yes, sector 5031 is EAN

Thanks, it seems I had guessed correctly. I'll submit it now.
