Disc type and dumping media autodetection #8

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
First, thank you very much for this awesome dumper.  I've been waiting for a 
long time to get rid of cIOS for good, the only homebrew I use are dumpers.

Since I don't rip games that often it's not urgent.  And it's only a feature 
request.

I would like the program to detect on its own what disc is in the drive (GC / 
Wii / Wii DL) and also where to dump (if there's a USB drive just assume it'll 
be there, or make a config file so the user can change this setting one time 
and not each time we have to dump.  Then detect what type of FS, etc that drive 
uses, FAT32, NTFS, etc.

It would be awesome if we could just start the program via HBC, insert a disc, 
press A to dump, and then A again to dump another game when it's finished, and 
then A again, etc.

Would be really awesome.

Thanks!

Oh, didn't see we could change the settings at the left.  Change to enhancement 
and low priority or whatever you think is right.  :)

Oh, and by the way Configurable USB Loader seems pretty good at doing many of 
those (detecting disc type, FS, config file, etc.) maybe you can use part of 
their code.

Main difference: they use cIOS.
It's not really that much of a pain to set the very few setting each time the 
program starts.
I think emukidid will mark this Invalid.

If the user doesn't specify things like whether the disc is a dual layer, chunk 
size, device type (sd, usb), filesystem type (fat, ntfs), etc, there's a lot 
more that can go wrong.

I will add in Dual Layer detection though, that one is easy.

Awesome, I think detecting DL is the most important one.  The others the user 
knows, but DL there's no easy way.

Thanks!

Turns out this has more issues than I'd thought. It's best to leave it out for 
now :(

if you have troubke writting solid detection code you might want to look at my 
code in SNEEK: http://code.google.com/p/sneek/source/browse/trunk/es/SMenu.c#387
