I'm trying to dump one of the missing XBOX games ("Scarface") that DIC seems to have an issue with right at the start.
I have two copies of the game and both are doing the same thing.
Code: Select all
LBA[1913770, 0x1d33aa]: [F:ReadXBOXDirectoryRecord][L:1180]
Opcode: 0xa8
ScsiStatus: 0x02 = CHECK_CONDITION
SenseData Key-Asc-Ascq: 03-02-00 = MEDIUM_ERROR - NO SEEK COMPLETE
Here are the other logs :

I tried with XBC and Freecell, which are dumping it fine...up to a certain point.
Any idea of what could be happening ?

Probably the later, but maybe it's different than the regular english/european release.
It's the one listed in the PAL missing list (with the french cover which has a "Contenu Explicite" warning at the top left)
Here's an ebay listing, it's a pretty uncommon one:
https://www.ebay.fr/itm/203694810733?ha … SwzNJhjYSA
Though not sure if it isn't just a stock picture, might be a good idea to ask the seller first.
Otherwise, as I have two copies, I can always send one your way.

Tried to dump PS2 cheat discs with big data protection, always getting different hashes with newest versions of DIC, DICUI and DIC_test. Maybe you can take a look at it, logs are here:

statiomaster_032002_20210701T212154.txt --> It's old version. Typically, the bug report of the old version is meaningless.
And it's a known issue.

Please check which bytes of the img of the latest DIC are different using fc command by the command prompt.
Code: Select all
fc /b statiomaster_022002.img statiomaster_032002.img

As I wrote I used various versions, also the newest from github with same result: hashes not matching. I didn't knew that the logs from old versions are meaningless, uploaded any I had left on HDD. I'll dump them again and put those new logs up, also do that compare you mentioned.

I've been tired to say "Please use the latest version" every time, especially MPF users.
I recommend
github issue from now on when the bug is reported.
If it is reported in this forum, see the
bug_report.md.

Tell me the ebay or amazon or discogs link of "HighlightsVCD", please.
"Philips Media Presents: CD-i Games: Highlights-Previews-Gameclips" not to be confused with a similarly titled one for movies.
Three listings on ebay right now and all UK shipping only
sarami if you're still looking for this VCD
https://redump.info/disc/74810/ which gives wonky errors, there's one in this pack that ships worldwide:
https://www.ebay.nl/itm/265429499035
I think this could be a key to saving a lot of VCDs with dumping errors - it seems this DIC dumping bug effects many VCDs in general (maybe 10-15% from my experience).

Follow up on that : I managed to grab another copy, same ringcode and all... and this time it worked without issues.
So likely something bad going on with the discs themselves even if they don't look visually bad.

It's weird... Do you upload these logs? Generally, "MEDIUM_ERROR - NO SEEK COMPLETE" is a drive problem.
