Hi LUK!

 

This post is for your information - I don't know if this is a bug as such... I posted a while ago about difficulties with an Audio CD, which turns out to have an illegal value in the CUE file:

I tested this CD on two different drives and I got two different behaviours by ImgBurn, while trying to create an image. Whereas GCR-8523B successfully performed the copy:

GDR-H30N just stalled after the error shown in red appeared, and the read had to be stopped using the Cancel button.

EAC was also successful only with one but not the other drive. BTW, CUE file created by EAC during the successful read sets the strange INDEX value to 00:00:00.

 

Take care!

If we've already dealt with this, why post it as a new thread and not just add to your previous one?

 

There's nothing I can do for the drive that errors out reading sector 0, that's its problem.

 

The other issue (with the INDEX) has already been fixed ready for the next release.

I have considered tagging it onto the end of the previous thread but it seemed to me that this is a different issue (even though it is associated with the same Audio disc).

 

The drive (that failed in this case) performs just fine with other "regular" Audio discs. I thought you might be interested because it appears to me that the failure occurs because of the unusual INDEX entry. Therefore, if this drive does it, others might have a similar problem. Also, ImgBurn did not abort the read - It had to be performed manually.

 

Finally, it is good to hear that something useful came out of our previous conversation. B)

I believe the problem with it not aborting has also been fixed.

 

It is actually aborting due to it being the end of the disc (according to that drive anyway) but then because it's a multi track disc, it's waiting for data for the other tracks - where it should instead be aborting the entire operation.

 

That issue was picked up in another thread where a problem disc / drive (an old SCSI one) was being used.
