Redump Forum

Hi,

You can usually find me over on ASSEMbler but as I have a couple of Japanese demos not yet listed (SLPM-80286 and PCPX-96095, maybe others) I had to register to post the following questions.

First one is referring to EAC. The guide is from Jan 2011 and recommends the prebeta version. Is there a specific reason why one shouldn't use the current beta? The only difference I could see, is that in the current version there is no option to disable "No use of NULL samples for CRC calculations" in the "Extraction" tab.

Second: I dumped one disc following the guide for discs with audio tracks. As I dumped the audio tracks first, the cue sheet only lists incomplete information for the first data track, right?

TITLE "Unknown Title"
FILE "<Filename>.iso" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODEx/2xxx
TITLE "Track01"
PERFORMER "Unknown Artist"
INDEX 01 00:00:00

In order to obtain a dump that can later be burnt to disc again, would I have to modify the cue manually to state:

FILE "Track01.iso" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00

? Anything else I would have to do or change?

Thanks in advance.

You are correct with the cue sheet, but only the file info is required, you dont need the TITLE or PERFORMER entries.

If you submit stuff, the CATALOG Entry is nice to have, and any flags (but EAC doesn't put flags). For that you need to dump the subs separately.

The guide is actually outdated now...

also we use the older pb5 because it's less buggy.
