hello all,

i'm new here and sorry if i've post the theard in a wrong forum.

i'm just looking for a software/utility which could show the data of both layers of DVD9 so that i could copy the data from both layers. i've tried many software but they only detect DVD movie. The DVD for which i need a utility/software is not a DVD movie but a data DVD.

i've also used a utility called apache that read the iso image of
DVD9 and lets the user to switch b/w its layers. it allows me to copy data from 1st layer but when i try to do so from 2nd layer it shows a messege "error reading from file!". is there any utility out there that could help me in this case.

bye

is there certin data on the second layer that you need to get right? why don't you just copy the whole disk? and as far as data on the disk as being readable, what program do you use to read the data? as in viewing it? my understanding data is stored on the disk as x and o, do you get what i am asking, i meen do you know how to read code?

to copy the whole disk is not my solution but to convert it into a single layer dvd is what i want.

i used apache v2.0 to read data from both layer of disk.

here is a idea why don't you post this question in the ps2 forum and you will find everything you need to know about backing up your ps2 game.

Apache will read both layers, but you will need to switch between the 2. Just look for that option when you right click the game info in the left column.
