I haven't used AnyDVD very often as of yet, but is creating the log file before or after the rip the same thing? Does ripping it after provide more info or difference in anyway? These were the questions I've been thinking of when I was experimenting. Keep in mind that this was a BDISO rip.
I've created 2 sets of log files under the same settings in AnyDVD. However, when I compared the two, there were some differences. The first AnyDVD_log was created after ripping the ISO, and the second was created before, but I didn't rip the ISO. Therefore, I couldn't check the CRC of both ISOs to see if they were identical. Shouldn't their log files be identical if the same disc is ripped multiple times or right after each other? Note that there were 4 files in the ZIPLOG archive that did not match eachother's. The nature of the log file had times for info retrieval, so I had to open them up and delete all the times and compare them side-by-side. This was the result:
"sbresult" were different.
--------------
"WM_POWERBROADCAST 0x5" showed up in a 3rd attempt I made. It was from the log file created after the ISO rip. I also wanted to report that the CRC of the ISO, .dvd file, and the md5 file were identical to the first attempt for ripping the ISO. I guess that's the most important part, but I haven't compared other discs to be sure this will be 100% sure.
Also, I would like to know where I can check the number of sectors that were unreadable during the ripping session. Regardless if they were unreadable because of bad sectors, scratches/fingerprints/dirt, or fake sectors, I would like to know where I can find this information.
