  • CRC / sha1sum database of many game disc. Useful to check a cd rip.
  • CD rip program: DICUI (windows only)
  • edccchk — Tool to check ECC/ECD in RAW CD image.
  • Useful to check integrity of a RAW image, making sure there is no error that should be corrected (better correct the errors first before burning the CD).
This guide mainly targets standard ISO9660 CD that can be ripped as ISO image (using dd).
Lots of useful information.
Explains the origin of input/output error when using dd (often due to bad sector in the lead out part, 2s blank at the end of the CD).
Backing up CD
Package to scan for activate copy-protection in executables
  • THE* site for backing up games / bypassing copy-protection mechanisms.
  • Suggest to install older version of DaemenTools (typically 4.x series). For Win7, 4.35 is first version to support Win7, and 4.49 the latest 4.x version.
  • Suggest to use ProtectionID to identify whether a game is using a protection mechanism.

CDROM info

Tips

Backup a CDROM

Here a script I use to backup cdrom on Linux, named ripcd.sh.

  • Use cdrdao for raw extraction.
  • extra AUDIO tracks.
  • extra MODE2 tracks.
  • Use edccchk to check ECC/ECD on raw image
  • Make sure raw image has no ECC/ECD warning/error (if so, better extract ISO to have errors corrected).
  • Use raw2iso (original) to convert raw image into iso file.
  • Compare files on ISO with those on cdrom.
Limitations
  • Note that some CD may have extraction errors in the 2s lead out (150 last sectors). This is normal.
  • Sub-channel extraction (rip-cdrdao-raw-sub) does not work. At least, it does not produce same data as CloneCD.
  • Endianness of audio track is SWAPPED. If mounting in Daemon Tools, byte order of audio track must be swap (see script). [1] [2] [3].
rip-dd
  • The rip-dd function in the script (not used) work around that by extracting only the data part, excludind that lead out track.
  • Note however that rip-cd does not make a complete rip (ignore audio tracks for instance).

Ripping mixed mode CD (DATA + AUDIO)

Might consider using Cue Ripper or Exact Audio Copy to extract the audio tracks.

In that case the RAW CD image must be recombined. For instance, if extracting as .flac file: 

# Say XXX = size in byte of first MODE1_RAW DATA track (see .toc file)
dd if=IMAGE.bin of=IMAGE.data bs=2352 count=XXX
for f in *.flac; do flac -d $f; done
for f in *.wav; do dd if=$f of=$f.strip bs=44 skip=1; done  # Must remove WAV header
cat IMAGE.data *.strip > IMAGE.bin

Convert RAW CD image to ISO

Use raw2iso (original) to convert raw image into iso file. 

raw2iso MODE1_RAW < data.bin > data.iso

See help for other parameters.

Rip an Audio CD

  • NEW CUERipper, under wine.
Faster than EAC. Provide accuterip report. My current preferred method.
  • Exact Audio Copy, under wine.
  • whipper, Linux.
Using Python3. Never tried.
