- Feurio v1.64
The Feurio author added special routines for defective (copy-protected) Audio-CDs at the latest 1.64 version. When you have inserted the CDS200 disc, Feurio opens a window and prompts:
- TOC (table of contents) informations defective - probably the CD is copy protected or defective
The inserted CD contains multiple sessions. The informations of the further sessions contradict the TOC informations of the first session.
An audio CD-player always reads only the data of the first session. But a CD-ROM will read the data of the further sessions and "overwrites" the data of the first session with the data of the further sessions. Many audio-CDs with copy protections use this behaviour - they contain further sessions with "defective" TOC-data, so that CD-ROMs display wrong track length or wrong track data, such that they refuse to play these CDs correctly. In this case you should activate "Ignore further sessions - correct TOC information", so that Feurio! reacts like a normal CD-player and uses only the data of the first session, i.e. the further sessions won't be displayed. By selecting "Always correct TOC for this CD", Feurio! will always behave like described above for this CD, so that this dialog won't appear again for this CD. REMARK: Depending on the CD-Device, the reading will work or won't work - unfortunately there are some CD-devices that get so "confused" by this "defective" data, so that they refuse to read any data correctly - if this is the case, Feurio! can't repair this, we can then only recommend to use another CD-Rom!
After we press "ok", Feurio displays the correct tracks of our disc:
Afterwards you can either try playback the CD or even better make a copy of the disc in your HD.
