Please help if possible:

Alcohols' demo's help section mentions something about a certain image/media type or emulation, and that if it is selected you will only be able to play/read the backup you made on the pc which burned it.
Sorry I haven't got the specific name of this feature but I can't access it right now. Please help me out here if you're an alcohol user.

Also is Alcohol reliable for making Disc Juggler images to patch for modding Dreamcast games?

Finally, I have a very old version of CloneCd, I never upgraded because it has done a fine job for me. I recently read on a cdr site that even the latest Clone has dodgy audio extraction. Does that mean that clone can still backup audio discs competently, and is only dodgy on extracting certain tracks? OR should I not use my old version for audio backups - although the originals I own and have backupped, the backups seem fine, I may compare them.

Thanks for taking the time to read this,
Peace C

Sounds like you are talking about RMPS, which daemon-tools also supports so you don't necessarily need to have alcohol installed.

As far as I am aware it can't make discjuggler images reliably or otherwise.

As for audio, you really can't beat EAC for quality.

Thanks for your swift response Uwere right it was an RMPS option, I asked here because when I take certain stuff of mine out I always take backups only and it would've been a mad pain if they didn't function on my friend's pc or whatever.

I'm sure Acohol can burn DJ images by the way. I haven't really been following any pc products or whatever, cdr etc, for months. But I downloaded the Alcohol demo and I'm amazed at all the formats it supports, that's why I asked about the Disc Juggler images being reliable because I patch DC games to 60hz quite often, and I don't like Disc Juggler so if Alcohol's Dj support is reliable I'll uninstall Dj.

I think Alcohol may be developed in England though I may be wrong on that. EAC? Is that a ripper? I probably should know this but you've lost me. I normally use CDex for extraction but was wondering whether the old (real old) ClonCd's are reliable because I used to use it a lot and then I read recently that Clone's audio extraction is not reliable. I wondered whether that was on the newer versions for making mixes or whatever, and whether the old versions are still ok for straight backups.

Peace C

I never said it couldn't write discjuggler images. I just said it could not make them, which was your question. " is Alcohol reliable for making Disc Juggler images"

England? I think not, it's main developer used to work for CopyStar, which I believe is based in Taiwan.

EAC = Exact Audio Copy.

Recent versions of CloneCD have speed/quality settings for audio.

Thanks Druid, thought that if it can burn dj images it should be able to make them, ahh well........looks like I'm not going to uninstall that dj4 demo after all.
