  1. Just read about the recently released OmniDrive firmware. If by change anyone into Wii U reverse engineering is reading this, the project apparently is currently looking for information about how the scrambling of its disks works:

  2. #MPF backup now worked too. Pulled the disk out. And my suspicion about the glue appear to be correct. The edges are quite sticky and when I put it onto the scanner the underside also looks a bit different now.

    However the #MPF backup doesn't play in VLC, both of the MakeMKV backups work just fine though?!?!

  3. Hurrah! The ISO output from Spindle now matches my reference file.

    I was missing the last sector; classic off-by-one error 😅

    Aside: I have a ContextMenu Action to add the MD5 hash of a file as its Finder comment.

  4. Thought ripping CDs was a solved problem? Think again.

    One drive: good.
    Multiple drives: better.

    Spindle for macOS—coming soon

  5. (very) dumb question of the day:
    How many DPI does a colour scanner need to have so that you can read the data off of a CD-ROM when scanned?
