I just cleaned out the family closet full of old cd- and dvd-roms, and now I have this pile of old shareware-bundles and old games going back to at least 1999 |

is there any preferred format to stopre disc images? what imaging format has #archiveteam´s seal of approval? |

omf_ |
all the cd and dvd images I do are in .iso |

ah thanks, also, I´m using Windows (please don´t kill me, I´m just lazy) so is there any problem with using ImgBurn to image disks, are there settings I should be wary of? |
|

imgburn can make iso files |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM#Disc_images given this information, from a archival standpoint I think it´s better to use ccd/img, cue/bin or mds/mdf |
|

|
Muad-Dib_ |
ISO only stores the data parts of a cd-sector, while those other formatgs also store the error checking/correction information etc. |

if you're doing a disc at a time, it's fine |

dashcloud |
if you've got hundreds of discs, you may want to investigate a different method |

dashcloud |
planning to upload cover art as well? |
|
15:27
🔗
|
dashcloud |
if so, plan your names accordingly- the first image alphabetically or numerically is treated as the cover image, even if it actually isn't |

SketchCow |
If needed, I can write something that pulls down your ccd/img and makes the iso. |
|
15:40

dashcloud |
so, upload a cue/bin file and a iso together? |

I walked 13 miles yesterday. Going to see what happens today. |
|
15:40

Yes, or, like I said, I can write something to do that work, which is faster if you're doing hundreds. |

I could never really get anywhere with buffing discs but I did find that tricky discs would sometimes read in some drives and not others - so having a selection of different drives (including different types - e.g. CD-only, DVD, HD-DVD, Blu-Ray) was helpful in 'jigsawing' a complete image together. |

I use imgburn for my shareware CDs, if you have read errors then there is a program called ddrescue that's useful but it's not straightforward to get on windows I don't think |
