BR Settings & CD Info
 

Settings

Here you can adjust minor settings such as updates and sound files that are played after successful readings. More important though, is the option to Select/Test the CD access layer.





From there you can select between VSO's PC layer and ASPI or other native drivers, and test if they are working properly. So even if you have installed the PC layer and are having problems with it or don't want to use it any more, you can change it here.




CD info/Control tray

BlindRead can also give you information about the table of contents (TOC) for the selected CD as well as the extraction capabilities of the selected reader. BR can also be used to control the CD-tray (open -close).



On the next page we'll take a look at the CD Image settings:

Very good first review, Hemispasm. Too bad the images aren't as good as the review. :)
I have had some probs with BW when backing up PSX games. The backups have had problems while CloneCD has produced clean results. Reader:Plex32 Writer:TDK 121032 (Plextor-made)
Hey i use both BW and CCD, both are good! Sometimes it only forgets to unlock the drive so i have to reboot before i can use my CDrom again :)
I have been using it for years and it is a little gem. Plus, the developers, who really treated this more like a hobby for a while have finally taken it seriously and we should expect even better things from them now.:7
Agreed.
I have been using this program for a long time, but for ages Clonecd has been ahead in reading/writing copy-proteted cd's I kinda forgot about it, but I often use it for heavily scratched/unrecoerable cd's.
blindwrite kicks azz :)

been advising it to alot of people in the last years
and i NEVER had a complain about it afterwarths
i'm a newbie,can i use Blindwrite or CloneCD to back up my copyprotected DVD'S I've got a DVD burner and easy CDcreator5
Sorry for some of the pics, Photoshop ain't my thingy ;)

Nope, you can't use neither BlinWrite nor CCD for backing up your protected DVDs Stu11, sorry :)
These programs are for backing up protected game CDs only. If you have a DVD related question, you can always drop by the DVD forum in CDFreaks to ask ;)

As far as BlinWrite is concerned, you can all post your opinions and experiences here

For copying DVD's, or everything in general, you should consider Alcohol 120%
-Does both protected Cd's and DVD's
-Has a Daemon Tools clone embedded (supporting up to 31 virtual CD's).
- the final version, due in a few days, will also include basic premastering.
- Multiple burners support.

AFAIK its only cons currently is the slow read speed with a few devices (to be fixed soon), and its ugly pink color. Leavin' that aside both Clone and BW suite have a lot to envy and nothing to boast about over this one.
How does it stand up to SecuROM/New will it make a working backup: Toshiba XM-6702B reader Writers Lite-on 40125S HP 9310i
blindwrite is a pain in the 4ss.
