I found a weird bug with my copy of SWAT 2.

For some reason the SCM and the IMG are identical.

This hasn't happened with any other disc I own.

I'm including logs except for the eccedc.txt file, which just says something like:

"LBA[000000, 0000000], MSF[01:82:00], mode 1 User data vs. ecc/edc doesn't match"

for ALL the sectors on the disc.

EDIT: Based on the sector count and ringcodes, it should match or be similiar to https://redump.info/disc/51572/

EDIT2: I just found an old dump I made of the same disc, I can confirm that this disc matches the one I previously linked.

Because this disc has similar format as Implode & Meteor Blaster DX. Latest test version supported the pregap data track.

Hey sarami, can you kindly explain what the /s option for DVD does exactly? I'm dumping a DVD-Video disc protected by CSS/CPPM with it. DIC is reading the disc at an extremely slow speed. Is it normal? Thanks in advance.

I see. So there is a sector in the pregap? Interesting. That also explains why using cdrdao to dump this disc produced a file missing that first sector. Interesting.

Hello sarami,

since my Plextor doesn't work anymore with the adapter, I'm forced to install it on an old PC running Windows XP, hence I must use DIC in command line.

Trying to dump Colin McRae Rally 2.0 for PC, it has SafeDisc, but the "subintention.txt" files comes out empty. I have all the logs if you need them.

Read about Plextor SpeedRead. But keep in mind that PlexTools is a true devil and better don't install it or your drive would go to shit...

Yes. I can't understand now why reading speed is slow.

subintention is for SecuROM or Libcrypt, not SafeDisc. If you use /ns, subintention.txt is created.

Gotcha! BTW, I've tried the build with /sf flag for DVD with that CMR04 disc with RingProtecH, when it reaches the ring area, it will attempt to re-read the sector 5 times then it just fails. When I start the dump, it says that "the /sf flag is obmitted".

It needs to edit ReadErrorProtect.txt and then use /sf flag.

Still unsure how to make it work. Can you please tell me step by step? Thank you.
