Program that analyzes the data integrity of a CD?
It might be either the CD-Rs or my burner - or both - but as often as not Nero's data verification fails due to 'bad sectors.' I currently use EAC's Test Selected Tracks after the burn to see what it can find in terms of errors... my question is is there a program designed to look at a CD and test its data? I don't know, maybe EAC is really all I need, but I figured I'd ask in case somebody has a better solution.
Also, what the hell causes 'bad sectors' anyway? And does it mean the disc is completely flawed? How ya doing, buddy?  |

Both actually. But audio discs more so right now since I'm getting a string of bad copies. Man it pisses me off when I tell Nero to shut down after completion but due to failure it doesn't.
IsoBuster looks to be what I was looking for. If I perform a scan and it says everything is clean, does that mean I should ignore Nero's failed data verification? There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well DUDES I did a little experiment and it seems to have succeeded. I used IsoBuster to extract the image (.bin) and cue sheet, then opened the .cue in Nero and burned that. For some reason it burned extremely quick with successful verification. I don't know how this is different from doing everything in Nero, since that extracts an image file too and burns that, but despite the extra step in IsoBuster this method seems much more efficient and stable.

Close yeah, except it's just steps 4 and 5. Dtools isn't even a part of it. My drive is 24x (less even) and Nero burns the cue sheet roughly in one minute! I don't understand it, but it's been working flawlessly so far.
