Is it that not every cd writer has the capability to write certain protections??? Correct me if I am wrong.

Well in that case can u people suggest writers which are the best for writing protected cds.

In my region i can buy these cd writers:
Samsung
Plextor
Acer
AOpen
Yamaha

Kindly Help,

AOpen http://elby.ch/english/products/clone_cd/writers/a.html#aopen
Plextor http://elby.ch/english/products/clone_cd/writers/p.html#plextor
Samsung http://elby.ch/english/products/clone_cd/writers/s.html#samsung
Yamaha http://elby.ch/english/products/clone_cd/writers/y.html#yamaha

It doesn't seem that any of these writers can burn SD2.51+ but if that doesn't matter than get a Plextor or the new Yamaha to copy protected audio CDs.

(in reply to razor911)

Most of these writers will write SD 2.51 with amplify weak sectors switched to on.

(in reply to razor911)

Not all writers can support SD v2.51+ with amplify weak sectors on. Read our reviews for such tests

(in reply to razor911)

Well I can confirm that :-
Yamaha 3200e and the CRW-F1E
Aopen 4048B
Plextor 24x
Will do the SD 2.51 with amplify weak sectors switched on but all had the latest Firmware Installed !!!

What is the difference between Raw DAO-16 and Raw DAO-96?

(in reply to razor911)

Raw DAO-96 is 2352 bytes RAW Data + 96 Bytes P-W Subchannel Data. It allows writing of all subchannel information, including Digital Signatures, CD-Text, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, CD+G, CD+Midi, Gaps, Indices and Crazy TOC's.

Whereas,

Raw DAO-16 is 2352 bytes RAW Data + 16 Bytes P-Q Subchannel Data. It allows writing of most subchannel information, including most Digital Signatures, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, Gaps, Indices and Crazy TOCs. 2-Bytes CRC of the Q Subchannel are generated by the writer.

Basically in practice DAO-16 can copy SecuROM, *but*, DAO-96 can copy Libcrypt as found on some PSX titles.

Hi ashtwey
But the Page does also Quote that this list only includes writers that can copy SafeDisc versions up to 2.50xx so it does not Guarantee that they will do SafeDisc 2.51xx which is the latest Version and most of them won't without AWS and even then some of them Won't (Except Lite-on and a few others )!!!

LiteOn is evil? [:o)]

(in reply to razor911)

Yeah Right He is calling Lite-on's Evil because the so called Super Protection he is supposed to be making Can't beat the Lite-on's L.O.L !!!

(in reply to razor911)

OH ! Well that makes things a lot Clearer !!!
You will have to ask the Lads if they will have a Whip-round to buy you a CD-Writer that will support DCR = 1 so you can finish your Unbeatable Protection !!!
