Extra information.
You can back up a CD+G format data disc using our software.
However it is up to driver's reading and writing ability. If you want to
burn a CD+G disc completely, your drive must support reading and recording
subchannel data.
Subchannel
Subchannel includes Data Subchannel and Audio Subchannel, where a disc saves
additional information other than normal data and tracks. Since not all
CD-ROMs/ CD-RWs support subchannel, some game and music vendors save the
"fingerprint information" in the two sub channels. Therefore, if user wishes
backup the disc, it is considered as failed if these data do not correctly
backup. The manufacturers that use such measure of CD copy protection
include Sony's Securom ("fingerprint " has been saved in Data Subchannel),
New Securom ("fingerprint" has been saved in Data and Audio Subchannels),
LibCrypt (Sony's PlayStation) and LaserLock. The data saved in Subchannels
includes 16bytes (such as Securom and New Securom) and 96bytes (LibCript).
Therefore, the performance of CD-ROM/ CD-RW can read the two Subchannels
include: a. Raw+96, b. Raw+16, c.Raw (the data on Subchannels are
unreadable), d. none (both the data on Subchannels and normal bad blocks are
unreadable).
