That is to say, is this the skipping error like a clonecd and alcohol? I think good.

Yes, but I know in advance which sectors are bad and ideally the drive shouldn't touch such sectors at all to speed up the process as much as possible...

Thanks a lot sarami!
I noticed that if you have a filename with a dot, DIC will truncate it at the dot, for example "Game name (v1.2)" becomes "Game name (v1".
Is there a way to escape characters? I tried using a backslash before the dot but it just created a new directory.

It doesn't work. Disc is in mint condition, no scratches. Tried different Plextor drive, lower speed and also /s 2 switch. Nothing worked.
Uploaded subs here - done with Perfectrip, since CDTool also crashed:

Could you please have a look and try to get this fixed?

Sector 287612 ~ 304903 is abnormal. Protection?

Not sure. Protection ID doesnt show anything.
EDIT: Gamecopeworld states: Illegal TOC
http://gamecopyworld.eu/games/pc_thief.shtml
However, this is a Re-release from the "Play the Games vol.3" collection. I do not know if the copy protection of the original release still included and activated.

Shouldn't DIC detect CD-Rs as CD-Rs (by ATIP), not as "DiscType: CD-DA or CD-ROM Disc"?

The disc type can be obtained by READ_DISC_INFORMATION (0x51), and this command can only detect CDDA (included CD-ROM), CD-I, CD-ROM XA.
scsi.h
Code: Select all
#define DISK_TYPE_CDDA 0x00
#define DISK_TYPE_CDI 0x10
#define DISK_TYPE_XA 0x20
#define DISK_TYPE_UNDEFINED 0xFF
About CD-R, I haven't considered it. I'll examine it.

It's difficult now, for it can't get the subchannel exactly.
