Kasiorn Posted October 6, 2010 Posted October 6, 2010 (edited) Hi It seems I have the same problem with the guy in this topic http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=15671 (but I can't reply there) I attempt to create an image of an old audio replicated CD (with some littles scratchs). Imgburn 2.5.10 fails on track 2 : it just freezes (no error message after a long time) I manage to create a bin image with Isobuster so it's OK. But does it prove that my CD is OK ? (My client wants to be sure before duplicate CD from image). So my question is simple : does the problem come from ImgBurn or the disc ? Thank you Nicolas from Paris ImgBurn.log.zip Edited October 6, 2010 by Kasiorn
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 6, 2010 Posted October 6, 2010 Don't report bugs with old versions please. If 2.5.2.0 still has the same problem, get back to me.
Kasiorn Posted October 6, 2010 Author Posted October 6, 2010 Sorry, Here is the log with 2.5.2.0, problem still here ImgBurn.log.zip
LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 6, 2010 Posted October 6, 2010 Ok so now you need to wait for 2.5.3.0, which may or may not fix the issue for you.
shieber Posted November 14, 2010 Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Fwiw, I had this prob with prior version but also with 252. The image is created from CD disk and can be burned but during verify it locks up at Track 3 while analyzing tracks. I burned the same image file a coule of times with same result and then recreated the image file and tried again that way -- same result. I tried a couple of times using Verify directly from the Menu but same result. I tested the disks that were burned and all play fine. Not knocking the prog; it's great. I attached the log in case that is of use. If I can do something to help with the issue, let me know. regards, sh ImgBurn.log Edited November 14, 2010 by shieber
scuzzy Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 <AOL> Me too </AOL> Just in case it helps any debugging going on, I too have this problem: I'm trying to use ImgBurn 2.5.2.0 on a fully-patched WinXP box to copy an audio CD I burned on another PC using Roxio 5.3.4.21 - the CD contains 3 audio tracks sourced from WAV files (radio recordings using Audacity), burned in track-at-once mode (hence 2-second gaps will be present), and finalised. ImgBurn always hangs up after a couple of seconds while "Analysing tracks". The last status bar message is always "Analysing Tracks... (Session 1, Track 2)". I actually left it running for 9 hours at one point but nothing changed. The CD drive activity light stays on continuously. The CD actually plays fine, both on the PC and in a domestic CD player. The media is a Verbatim <barf> "Extra Protection" disc (actually made by CMC) but they work fine for my other scratch purposes so long as they're burned slowly (I'm using them up). It's a long time since I've used IB to copy audio but I know it used to work fine at earlier releases. The attached log is from a "Verify Disc" run (not against image file) with debug tracing enabled, which fails in the same way. From a quick look at the log it seems ImgBurn is getting lost, and reading sector numbers which increase and then decrease endlessly. If there's any more info you want I'm happy to supply. verify-audio-CD-hangup-log.zip
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 It's just trying to get the sub-channel info for a specific sector - but your drive is unable to provide it. Getting the sub-channel info for a specific sector isn't an exact science, so the program has to allow for your drive returning stuff it doesn't want and retry (sometimes increasing / decreasing the LBA) in order to get it. There's code present to detect looping etc but it needs a lot of tweaking to cover all the eventualities.
scuzzy Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 It's just trying to get the sub-channel info for a specific sector - but your drive is unable to provide it ... There's code present to detect looping etc but it needs a lot of tweaking to cover all the eventualities. So .. er .... the algorithm changed in the newer releases ? And the drive this user has is capable of providing the data my drive can't ? (They say they are using IB 2.5.2.0 to create image files from audio CDs.) Just a data point: I've now gone back through the last few ImgBurn releases till I got to one that works. For my Asus DRW-1608P2S drive : IB 2.5.0.0 is the last one that works. IB 2.5.1.0 is the first one that doesn't work. (I've actually now gone back to 2.4.4.0 which I seem to recall worked fine for me back in the day - for as long as I want to copy audio discs anyway.)
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 The older 'working' versions are fine, they just won't be as accurate at detecting pregaps (index 0) as the later versions.
scuzzy Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 Another data point: I've discovered the other optical drive in my workstation - a DVDROM drive, Asus DVD-E616P2 - reads the same audio CD just fine with all versions of ImgBurn right up to 2.5.2.0. I should have thought of trying this before , but have always used the DVDRW drive because its alleged capabilities are greater than the DVDROM drive. I've attached screenshots of IB's own Capabilities report for the two drives. I guess that despite this, the DVDROM drive must be able to read the subchannel data you mentioned, while the DVDRW drive can't The older 'working' versions are fine, they just won't be as accurate at detecting pregaps (index 0) as the later versions. Interesting you mention that - the CUE file created by IB 2.5.2.0 to go with the .BIN file created when I read this disc is like this : FILE "Image.bin" BINARY TRACK 01 AUDIO INDEX 01 00:00:00 TRACK 02 AUDIO INDEX 00 57:26:52 INDEX 01 57:28:51 TRACK 03 AUDIO INDEX 01 63:58:00 The IB log for this read operation looks like this : I 20:39:25 ImgBurn Version 2.5.2.0 started!

There was nothing weird that I can think of about the 3 WAV files that provided the source for the audio tracks. I'm now thinking of buying a new DVDRW drive that doesn't have this issue - what capability description should I be looking for to get a drive that can usefully read the subchannel data ? Cheers
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 I'm sure they all read sub-channel, it's just some let me read it more easily that others. Some give you exactly what you ask for, some give you something roughly around that area - and that's when the program has to mess around jumping forward and backward (LBA wise) to try and get the actual info it asked for in the first place. Index 01 is where players consider a track starts (i.e. when you skip tracks on a CD player with the remote etc, that's where it jumps to). There can be data before Index 01 (but that's still physically part of the that track), and that's known as pregap or Index 00. You could hide an entire song in the pregap of a track... and some discs do exactly that. Think 'hidden bonus tracks' - normally you have to play the disc and then hit the rewind button to get at them. So whilst the TOC of a disc might say: Track 1 - Start LBA (i.e. Index 01 LBA): 0 Track 2 - Start LBA (i.e. Index 01 LBA): 1000 Track 3 - Start LBA (i.e. Index 01 LBA): 2000 In reality it might be: Track 1 - REAL Start LBA (i.e. Index 00 LBA): -150 Track 2 - REAL Start LBA (i.e. Index 00 LBA): 850 Track 3 - REAL Start LBA (i.e. Index 00 LBA): 1990 The only way to find out what track a given LBA truly belongs to is to try and read the sub-channel data for it.
scuzzy Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Ok so now you need to wait for 2.5.3.0, which may or may not fix the issue for you. http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=changelog (2.5.3.0 section) : Fixed: 2nd attempt at fixing the issue where the program gets stuck 'Analysing Tracks' (basically, just an issue with Audio CDs). Just FYI, 2.5.4.0 does not fix this problem as exhibited by the one affected drive on my PC. Do you want another debug trace ?
