Most important changes in this version: Support for Blu-Ray media "Raw" reading and C2 scans for CD media Selectable number of reading attempts First native Mac OS X application bundle NetBSD-Port by Sergey Svishchev Improved media type recognition Info window describing inserted medium Improved and enhanced preferences dialog Reworked and enhanced documentation Russian translations by Igor Gorbounov ... and many more small changes and fixes. Patches (small changes after version 0.72; files above have been updated): 0.72 pl6 Minor fix in the source code to make sure that the size of future optical media is treated correctly. For currently available media sizes the update is not required. (28-May-2014) 0.72 pl5 Fixes a problem which may result in CD/DVD/BD drives being not detected if more than 10 devices are connected to a GNU/Linux or FreeBSD system. Thanks to Bill Eisele for reporting this. (11-Oct-2013) 0.72 pl4 Updated for new versions and programming libraries of GNU/Linux, FreeBSD and NetBSD. (07-Apr-2012) 0.72 pl3 Fixed a problem with the "Verify" function when working with RS01 error correction files larger than 2GB. Thanks to Volodymyr Bychkoviak for reporting the problem and sending a fix. (05-Okt-2011) 0.72 pl2 This version introduces a workaround which prevents parallel SCSI adapters from freezing under Linux. Upward compatibility with versions 0.79.x has been improved. The Windows and Mac OS X versions are now built with the development environment of dvdisaster 0.79.x and are therefore shipped with newer versions of the GTK+ graphical toolkit libraries. This update requires some changes in internal scripts resulting in a different checksum of the source package (the package published on Oct 31th had the md5 checksum 86110e212aa1bf336a52ba89d3daa93d and is still valid for Linux, FreeBSD and NetBSD).(07-11-2010) 0.72 pl1 Pablo Almeida provided Portuguese translations of the screen texts. Added workaround to avoid Win XP freezing on certain CD-RW/drive pairs.(08-Aug-2009) Update: The workaround has been found to be ineffective in some cases. A better workaround is included in version 0.79.x; unfortunately it can not be easily backported into the stable version. (06-Feb-2010) 0.72 This is the first stable version of the 0.72 branch. Igor Gorbounov has completed the russian online documentation. Some minor bugs from the first release candidate have been removed. Newer Windows versions may not display the proper screen language under certain language settings. This problem is rather complex and will be addressed in the upcoming 0.73.x releases. (04-Jul-2009) 0.72-rc1 First release candidate. (11-Apr-2009)
Previous release - upgrading to version 0.72 is recommended.

The RS02 error correction method is fully supported in the graphical user interface. Images created with RS02 can be used with the adaptive reading strategy. Julian Einwag started porting dvdisaster to Mac OS X / Darwin. Daniel Nylander provided Swedish translations of the screen texts. Patches (small changes after version 0.70; files above have been updated): pl6 Rolled back support for localized file names as it broke large file support under Windows. A new handler for localized file names will first be tested in the experimental version 0.71.25. (04-Mar-2008) pl5 Fixes a problem with newer Linux kernels which may lead to a frozen system under some circumstances. Treatment of file names containing localized characters has been improved. Contains backports of major bug fixes from 0.71.24. (24-Feb-2008). pl4 provides better compatibility with two layered DVDs (DVD-R DL and DVD+R DL). Some minor bugs have been fixed. (20-Jan-2007). pl3 fixes incorrect recognization of unsupported CD formats which produced a Windows blue screen under rare circumstances. Added cancel option during RS02 initialization on DVD RW media. (10-Dec-2006). pl2 fixes incorrect memory freeing when the program window is closed. Unpacking of documentation screen shots is fixed for PPC platforms. Only the source code archives have been updated. (03-Oct-2006). pl1 fixes a bug in adaptive reading for RS02 which would sometimes result in reading insufficient data for a successful recovery. Adds some small improvements of documentation and usability. (30-Jul-2006)
