[00:35] wonder if dcurtis would be willing to kick ia some money [00:50] Can't hurt to ask. [01:00] so 2010 videos of twit is uploaded to IA now [01:18] is there any specific firewall ports i need to open for the archiveteam grab scripts to work ? I am getting sync errors [01:24] ok sorted [01:32] I should have watched the output on the 2nd box running the grab scripts for a while longer & i would have spotted the rsync error [02:27] Sup [02:27] So, I just found this Phonebook on CD from 1996 [02:27] What should I do with it? [03:17] TFGBD: Rip the CD and upload to a collection on archive.org? [03:19] hello! [03:21] So I have to rip it the "right" way [03:22] I know some commmunities (BetaArchive) are really picky about how you image the CD... [03:30] ddrescue is good: http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue [03:49] I was reccomended Alcohol 120% [03:49] TFGBD: How does that work? [03:49] I'll dig up the guide if I can find it again [03:50] They seem really picky about not using ISO because it won't preserve all the tracks or other physical layers [03:53] well, there is copy protection mechanisms that many rippers could miss, but I don't know if a phonebook cd would be as challenging [03:53] Here it is http://www.betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32002 [03:53] Yeah, I doubt it would be [03:53] but they don't seem to want anything that is iso "just in case" [07:00] TFGBD: are you on a Linux system? [07:00] and please don't use alcohol 120%, as far as I understand it, it only supports proprietary formats [07:01] TFGBD: if you are on Linux, https://github.com/joepie91/image-disc [07:03] (it will use cdrdao for potential mixed-content discs, which takes care of the tracks issue) [07:06] lol, alcohol 120% is still a thing? [07:09] I still see it pop up in conversation with some regularity [07:10] the problem is that MDS/MDF is commonly lauded around ROM communities [07:10] because it can deal with a bunch of copy protections [07:10] and supports multi-track [07:10] but that completely ignores that it's a proprietary format [07:10] which is very very bad for archival purposes [07:12] phone book cd is practically guaranteed to be single-track, no copy protection, so iso is honestly fine but you can use bin/cue to be on the safe side [07:12] iso is handy because archive.org lets you browse inside of it, but it can always be converted later from the other formats [07:14] most of the hairy stuff with cd ripping comes in when there's audio tracks [07:21] unless you've explicitly verified that it's a single-track data CD-ROM, just use bin/cue [07:21] :P [07:44] I usually use ImgBurn which auto-selects iso or bin/cue for you [07:59] if it can do that, that seems like a reasonable option [07:59] is that a default setting, DFJustin? [07:59] I think so [07:59] or do you need to explicitly pick autodetect somewhere [07:59] because I'd like to have something to recommend to Windows users [07:59] even if it's not batch [08:00] it also gives you a sassy message if you pick iso after it chose bin/cue [08:03] lol [08:18] I read "sassy massage" [13:59] -- Downloading the read-only Halo Stats [13:59] -- Grabs will be starting very soon [13:59] -- Join us in #yolohalo [13:59] ----------------------------------------- [14:21] has anyone looked at or, better yet, talked to the mapillary guys about some automated archiving? [17:15] joepie91: I always do ISO + bin/cue for CDs I upload to IA- ISO so you can browse the CD, and bin/cue to capture any extra content/data [17:22] that works I suppose :P [19:50] joepie91, you still around? [19:51] i noticed betaarchive was linked to, i'm actually a mod there [19:52] raylee: I am [19:53] but not for long [19:53] :P [19:54] k [20:06] joepie91, the kryoflux stream format.. isn't that proprietary aswell? [20:25] they did document it eventually [20:26] or maybe that one was documented from the start and ipf was the one that took a while [20:27] anyway it's known
