badcopy for copy files from bad CDs / DVD of disks

Post by *hramov »

Copies files from bad CDs / DVD of disks, and also with bad HDD.
Reads out a file parts, and those parts that were not read fills in zero.
For disks with films it is not critical also films after that it will be possible to look.

ok I try to explain:
with badcopy you can copy for example a whole cd.
There are some bad files and also good files.
I would like to know, which copied files contain bad (zeroed) sectors.

Thanks for the plugin! I have the following suggestion:
On the first try, your plugin should create an additional file, for example
originalfilename.badcopy
for each file which was not copied completely, and write in there what parts of the file were bad.

Then when the user has cleaned the CD or uses a second drive to read it, badcopy would see the .badcopy file and try to read only the parts which could not be read the first time!

A utility from the German c't magazine uses such an approach, but not for single files, but for entire CD images (ISO). Trying to read the same CD with multiple drives can make it possible to read parts with one drive which another could not read, and vice versa.

Or, like already implemented, originalfilename.nsc?

Thanks for the plugin, hramov. :)

Here, I have a file transfer "readme.txt"
Sorry for the bad translation. Translating translate.google.com :)
All data on the process of copying, some of the information about the source file and map bad sectors saved in the *.NSC file. This file
final stored in the directory under the file name, which is produced from
the addition of the file name end expansion "nsc" originalfilename.nsc
If copying is not completely finished and left the bad sectors,
NSC- file is not saved or removed if it was retained earlier. In
NSC- process of copying a file is automatically saved with
frequency, which is defined option "Period autosaved
NSC- file. "


It is not remove NSC- file, as a result of it, you will know that
the appropriate file in this directory is not copied to the end. In addition,
you will always be able to continue copying the file.

If you want to view the information on a file, which
backed up by the "Stop Copy," click "Display
information "and select either copied file, which want
see information or appropriate NSC- file.
NSC- file is stored with the attribute "hidden", so to see
him, you must include in the display settings hidden conductor
the files.
p.s. autor program Non-Stop Copy v1.04 Dmitry Sergeev,
official website: http://dmitrys.nm.ru
I wrote to him, but he said that is not busy and can now engage in program Non-Stop Copy v1.04, but can provide *.nsc file format
