I'm trying to dump a GD-ROM disc.. I tried a PX-W4824TA and PX-760A but they always give a semaphore timeout error (edit: changed to new version, and no more timeouts at least).. The PX-755A starts dumping, but it only dumps until sector ~359848, then it gives the following error:

I did not use any trap disc. With trap disc it refuses to read...

Is this a bug, or is there any way to work around this LBA limit? I also tried dumping with cdtool, but it also ends at the same sector, even when I use trap disc.. So it seems like trap disc isn't needed and the PX-755A has a hardcoded limit? I'm using v1.08 firmware.

At least, I don't code like this. How about in dctools?

The audio trapdisc only has 360000 sectors. That's the reason why it aborts there. (At least the one you apparently used.)
The redump wiki has another kind of trapdisc: https://wiki.redump.info/index.php?title=Sega_Dreamcast

Try this one instead.

The audio trap disc that I was using has 1147651 sectors actually, but I'll try making another one, because I haven't had luck with the current one at all (also not with other tools, like cdtool and dcdumper).

But I was not using any trap disc. I can just insert the GD-ROM, run DIC and it will read fine, up to sector 359847, where it aborts. So that's why I'm saying that there must be a firmware limit on the PX-755A.

I coded that unreadable sector is replaced at 0x55.

My PX-755 is same too.

Could you please investigate this behavior? I'm not having any luck with audio trap disc + DIC, but without trap disc it always reads fine (up to sector 359847)... This LBA limit must be hardcoded somewhere.

One other thought on this issue: maybe the Plextor reads the ATIP of the burned disc and limits the sector range to that. If you have 90min or 99min CDR you could try one of those, maybe they allow reading further.

Or burn a disc with GigaRec activated?

Another idea: PlexTools allows to disable detection of recordable media, maybe activating this option could circumvent this limit?

I'm sorry but I don't know a lot about a hardware (including drive)...

Updated DiscImageCreator
- added path table record, directory record to _infolog.txt
  => for searching specific file (RingPROTECH => PROTECT.PRO, SafeDisc v1 => 00000001.LT1 or 00000001.TMP)
- added /rc option
  => I don't test it enough because I have only one RingPROTECH disc and SafeDisc v1.
- changed beep sound
