7th Guest CDi is dumping differently on Plextor 716 vs 755. Many dumps, same results when i dump on same drive - but results don't match other drive.

My edition is White Label Demonstration Disc, but has the same ring code as retail https://redump.info/disc/78871/
But different hashes.


I see this in command line:

Code: Select all

Checking sectors: 307875/307875
[ERROR] Number of sector(s) where bad MSF: 2
[INFO] Number of sector(s) where EDC doesn't exist: 297394
[ERROR] Number of sector(s) where mode2 NoEdc subheader(0x10 - 0x17) isn't same: 1

Asus /mr dump fails on a clean disc https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MeBc5R … sp=sharing

I think Asus just doesn't like CD-i mastering errors?


This Plextor dump matches redump and has the fewest main errors, I think it may be correct? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ltSRfY … kt6ey/view
At least one other version of 7th Guest has these same-looking main errors which makes me think this one is dumped as good.

Yes.

It's not related. Your disc is a little bad condition. Disc has c2 errors.
PX716 is no c2 error.

bad all. need to reread more

[user7]

PX716 is no c2 error.

No C2 error but "main error" txt is why i thought mastering errors.

A new CDi dump giving issues https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FEVCLK … sp=sharing

Never seen something like this before. The filesystem of the dump is empty. IsoBuster dump has edcchk errors too but has files in the filesystem.

LBA 950 ... last are all shifted because LBA 949 is mastering error (2352 + 120 bytes).

Anything can be done? or forever Non-Redump? This is a very rare Philips CD-i Japanese demo so would be nice to save if possible.

As with the Maddog's dump, the opinion of admin and moderator is needed.

Can be dumped with disc swap method, or do a manual scrambled dump.

Can it not be descrambled or what is the issue?

[user7]

When I descrambled the scm the filesystem was empty. But isobuster dump has files in it (isobuster flagged a read issue too).

Some CD-i discs have a similar problem to FMT discs.
* https://redump.info/disc/45432/
* https://redump.info/disc/70481/
* https://redump.info/disc/73334/
These 3 titles have 2 write offset due to the mastering issue of the pregap sector. 1st write offset is used by the pregap sector only, so DIC descramble the main (non-pregap) sector using the 2nd write offset.

CD-i discs that user7 reported have also 2 write offset due to the mastering issue of the main sector.
e.g. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FEVCLK … sp=sharing
To descramble all sector
1. descramble LBA 0 to LBA 948 using 1st write offset.
2. descramble LBA 950 to last sector using 2nd write offset.
3. pad all 0 bytes and put in LBA 949.
    or cut the excessive 120 bytes of LBA 949.
