My A05 appears to be 100% compatible with Clone CD also....

I have e-mailed Pioneer to find out for sure.... I will post there e-mail when (and if) they reply....

pioneer a04 will write subs but only 16 (not 96)
the way to check the a05 is to backup a ps1 game thats known to have protection

Dust.... Do you know of a certain game to try with....I only have a few PS1 games....

Mortal Kombat Trilogy
Wheel Of Fortune (not mine.. Its the wifes :) )
Tekken 2
Tekken 3

I've got others, but I can't remember what they are since I'm at work right now....

If you know that any of these have the protection, I will try to copy them when I get home...

are the games uk usa jap it makes difference
http://www.megagames.com/psx/psx_protected_games.shtml

now u look at only list of protected games i know of

id say its dao 96 :)

OK, I've just written medievil2 (it's on the above list) using clonecd on my 105. Works perfectly on a Magic3 modded Pal V7, I can't vouch for messiah2 tho! (Tis a joke, honest lol)

Are we convinced now? :D

If you can download CLONYXL and put medievil2 through the program. Then publish the paramaters for CloneCD that it comes up with. If those parameters include Read sub-channel data, then the A05 supports DAO-RAW+96. It's the RAW+96 that matters as the subchannel data which contains the encryption is held in the 96 bytes beyond the 2352 byte RAW limit.

Then we can lay this to rest and proclaim A05 to be fully CloneCD compatible.

Jeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzus Charlie!!!! & when you've done that go help...................

I've come across ur sort b4 m8! ;)

I stand corrected Craig :) You are right, as you can see from my post my burner doesnt support RAW-DAO, Yours does and IS 100% compatable. Pioneer must have corrected this with the A05 which is great for all A05 owners.LOL, Now, can the same be said for the Sony dvd-r +r writer :D

Ok done all that m8. I rember why I didn't like clonyxl, TIS BLADDY JARMAN MUN!!!!

Anyway we have

Reader settings
PSX/Libcrybt
Both read subchannel data from auto & data tracks are ticked

Writer settings
Don't repair subchannel data 'ticked'

Possible write modes
dao-raw 'ticked'
sao-raw 'ticked'

Now I can delete the hun!

OMG - tis normally @ least April before I'm right :D

:D :D :D
