Support for UFDR generated by Physical Analyzer Ultra (version 8.x) #2028

Does IPED support UFDR files generated by PA Ultra (version 8.x)?

I've seen that the structure of files are a little bit different. See the files inside the UFDR files bellow (omitting "chats" and "files" directories).

PA version 7.65

PA version 8.8

The main difference is that the PA 8.x added some data in the folder DbData.

The file DbData/database.db is a PostgreSQL custom database dump. I wonder if data inside the dump are redundant with data inside report.xml.

The file DbData/database.json has some case information as "Case number", "Examiner name", "Crime type" and "Department".

There are some users here already using PA 8, and processing the generated UFDR with IPED. So I think this issue should have some priority, at least to check possible issues in more detail and handle simple differences (from version 7) that may exist.

@patrickdalla, since you are working on this, I'm assigning it to you to let others know and avoid duplicate efforts.

lfcnassif commented 2 months ago

Is there any other known incompatibility other than #2149 or may this be closed?

patrickdalla commented 2 months ago

For the cases I processed, it worked as expected, i could not find other new issue.

I think this could be closed as it does not points any specific issue.

Thanks @patrickdalla! So I'm closing this. If anyone finds another incompatibility, please reopen.
