Dear Club MyCE,
First off, i am looking to create quality backup copies of PC games.
Now, i understand that there is an ID in the sub-channel data of a disc which needs to match the game executable which gets installed on a PC.
I have two questions open for discussion:
-
Is it possible to rip (read) the sub-channel data from a DVD into an image file? (therefore including all the copy-protection etc)
-
Is it possible to burn (write) the DVD image (with all sub-channel data) onto a blank DVD?
I assume question 2 is impossible at the moment otherwise everyone would be making perfect backups. So, do DVD writers have read/write capabilities of sub-channel data (RAW)?
Please discuss. Thanks.
