The RS02 error correction method
is fully supported in the graphical user interface. Images created
with RS02 can be used
with the adaptive reading strategy.
Julian Einwag started porting dvdisaster
to Mac OS X / Darwin.
Daniel Nylander provided Swedish translations of the screen texts.
Patches (small changes after version 0.70; files above have been updated):
pl1 fixes a bug in adaptive reading for RS02 which would sometimes result in
reading insufficient data for a successful recovery. Adds some small
improvements of documentation and usability.

The dvdisaster source code is also
available via CVS.

Images are checked against the error correction file during
the Scan function. Creation of files can
be continued after encountering and removing out-out-space conditions on hard disc.
New error correction method without
error correction files:
Error correction information can be appended directly to the image.
This method is still experimental and currently only available in the
command line. Please visit
the CVS archive
to follow development of the new method (requires some skills in building
programs from source).
Patches (small changes after version 0.66; files above have been updated):
pl3 fixes incomplete installation of the user manual under some versions
of Windows. Other operating systems are not affected.

- Skips image scanning during error correction file creation
if creation is invoked immediately after the image read.

- Czech translation by Luboš Staněk.

- Support started with this version.
Windows:
- Full support for FAT32 file systems (see above).

This version is capable of determining the
image size from the UDF/ISO file system
to improve the
image size recognition for -RW/+RW/-RAM media.
Reading images and creating the respective error correction file can now be invoked together
with a single mouse click.
A couple of small improvements have been made
to support more CD/DVD drives, polish existing functionality, and to weed out some
minor bugs ;-)
Patches (small changes after version 0.64; files above have been updated):
pl1 Fixes a crash immediately after invoking the program when linked against gtk+-2.6;
only the Linux version is affected.
pl2 Repairs the -u command line option and creates file permissions for images using
Unix conventions under Linux.

What is the digital signature?
The downloadable source code packages have been digitally signed using
GnuPG so that you can verify
that the software is in its original state.
Checking the authenticity of the public key
is best done by comparing its "finger print" with that given in the
footer of my emails. Feel free to send me an email with the subject
"GPG finger print" if needed.
