Great! Let me know how it goes.

Can't access the file with the link from the PM. Access denied. Could you maybe adapt the permissions?

[IFW]

Changed it - please check.

[auron]

got it, thanks.

Sooo.... pretty curious. Any news?

[auron]

Thanks for the nudge, pretty crazy times for me currently, so I lost sight of this.
I'll try to set it up over the weekend.

Tested today

with original 3.5 dtc:

Code: Select all

.\dtc  -p -fc:\temp\kftest\mo -r1 -e518 -i0
Track is out of range 0...83: -e518

as expected.

with modded dtc the same command will start all right, but stop at track 83 non the less

Code: Select all

83.0    : frev: 2496, drift: 0.108 us, tfer: 0 B/s, rpm: 360.362
83.0    : band: 1.810 us, 2.300 us?, 2.400 us?, 2.550 us?, 16.048 us?
83.1    : frev: 39660, drift: 0.058 us, tfer: 227698 B/s, rpm: 360.363
83.1    : band: 2.150 us, 3.259 us?, 4.309 us, 5.268 us?, 6.337 us?

Enjoy your shiny new disk image!

seems there would be more work to do after all.
I assume the numbering of the tracks alone (3 or even 4 digits) might need some work, too.

I don't want to bind any more resources on your end - I'd suggest to close this topic...
The benefit for me is small anyways, and the amount of people interested in high-tpi scans is pretty low as well.
