Dreamcast GDI to data/audio size notes
Closed for now
These notes are for future CD-R rips and to see if older rips actually ripped or down-sampled anything to make the games fit
This is something I was going to do a long time back in the hunt to find and make the best rips possible available for everyone to use
I have already released some of my own rips mostly for games I either could not find a good copy of and games that I ripped without ripping or re-sampling but on 99min media or spanned over several discs, either works so long as the spanned discs can be split in a way that makes it user friendly
General Notes GDI images start off with 2 tracks that don't contain anything used when you rip them
Code:
Track01 Data (this is the data that can be read via a PC and does not contain any game data, usually junk, but occasionally icons and wallpapers)
Track02 Audio (this is only played if you play this in a Audio CD Player, usually just a warning message not to play this disc)
Track03 Data (If the game contains Audio then this track is a dupe of the real data track that is the last Data track after the audio tracks)
(If the game has no Audio tracks then this track is the real Data track)
Track04 Audio (For games with Audio tracks this is the first track to contain in-game Audio)
Megabytes are rounded up to the next 000.000 Megabytes so 000.000123 Megabytes would be 000.001 Megabytes
80min CD-R's can hold up to 703.125 MB before over burning
99min CD-R's can hold up to 870.117 Megabytes always over burned
Note that Individual game notes are just basic notes I have not gone into detail what exact files need looking at
