I noticed that the _disc.txt file seems to have four times the information

Code: Select all

              NumberOfDIUnitsInEachDIBlock: 04

I'm not sure where this information is being derived from

PIC.bin

[Foxhack]

... yes.

So why is it pulling info from four layers when the disc can only hold only one layer of data? Wouldn't that mean the rest of the data is garbage?

Wouldn't it make more sense to only pull info for the layers that are actually written to the disc, and mark the ones that are not used as "layers not present / not burned" or something like that?

NumberOfDIUnits are not Number of layers.
Number of layers of your disc is 1.

Code: Select all

             DIUnitFormatDependentContents
                            NumberOfLayers: 01
                                 LayerType: 02 (Writable)
                                ChannelBit: 01 (74.5 nm)

I cannot dump one disc, namely the CD from the "newspaper" (actually a cardboard) Kinderland Extra 4/2006. I have strange errors when trying to dump my disk
Sarami, would you look at this?

Another disk I can't dump. This time it is a disc with the game Tytus Romek and A'Tomek. After the message "checking reading lead-out - OK" appears, the program stops, the dumping process does not start. What should I do in such a situation? This is the disk I'm trying to dump - https://archiwum.allegro.pl/oferta/tytu … 30028.html

It's the same with Max Game 5/2003. At the moment when the dump process is about to start, the DIC suddenly starts displaying strange errors (same as in Kinderland Extra 4/2006)

Dying drive / CD. I have never encountered such errors with DIC and I have dumped many of such crap discs

[MrPepka]

Hmm, I don't know. The disc with Kinderland Extra 4/2006 is almost clean, the disc with Tytus is also free from any serious dirt. And I dumped all these disks in Aaru in a different drive and there were no errors

I solved this problem
Two people on DSC recommended that I turn off the explorer.exe process. I checked it and in fact when I close this process, the dump is successful
I think Windows affects the quality of the dump sometimes

If it's not the protected disc, do not use /sf and /ns.
