dvdisaster 0.72 RC1

CD and DVD media keep their data only for a finite time (typically for many years). After that time, data loss develops slowly with read errors growing from the outer media region towards the inside.
dvdisaster stores data on CD/DVD (supported media) in a way that it is fully recoverable even after some read errors have developed. This enables you to rescue the complete data to a new medium.
Data loss is prevented by using error correcting codes. Error correction data is either added to the medium or kept in separate error correction files. dvdisaster works at the image level so that the recovery will not depend on the file system of the medium. The maximum error correction capacity is user-selectable.
Common misunderstandings about dvdisaster:
- dvdisaster can not make defective media readable again. Contents of a defective medium can not be recovered without the error correction data.
- Such functions are outside the scope of dvdisasters internal design and goals.

Enhancements
- Documentation and locale cleanup for en, de
- added app bundle creation for Mac OS X
- Graphical bug: red/green sector markings were incorrect when doing
- linear reading with high sector skip numbers. Fixed.
- Speed curve will no longer travel below the x axis.
- fixed rare crash while linear reading due to a race condition
- by improper ClearCrcCache() usage.
- fixed bogus dead sector warning in the linear reader
- after encountering unreadable sectors
- made adaptive reading pursue raw reading more aggressively;
- effectively trading in place re-reads for seeks over
- the medium.
- help output for --defective-dump was complete nonsense. Fixed.
- detection of read errors at the end of track at once disks
- would sometimes cut off too many sectors when doing multiple
- reading passes and a carefully crafted number of extra read
- errors occurred. Fixed.
- fixed crash in command line mode when doing multiple
- reading passes.
