Comments
- <b>Internal Serial</b>: or [T:ISN] -- This is the "Filename" output from Cleanrip or the "Game ID" displayed in dolphin.
- Format is XXXXYY -- XXXX is the normal 4 character serial printed on label, YY is the 2 character publisher/developer ID.
- <b>Internal Name</b>: -- Can be obtained in Isobuster as volume label, in Cleanrip output, or in Dolphin.
- <b>Cover ID</b>: -- This is the ID printed on the cover of the case (or sleeve). This is more useful for European discs than USA/Japan discs, as they can help determine between regional variants (France, Germany, UK, Scandinavia, etc).
- <b>Additional BCA</b>: -- This is for extra BCA data from verifications. Only post the last line of the BCA as the rest are 0x00. Put the BCA in a <tt></tt> monospace formatting block, and separate BCAs with a new line and a dash.
Ringcodes
- 102E2205<tab>DOL-102P-0-0X JPN<tab>S0 -- The bold character indicates Revision number. Add revision to datname and version field if non-zero (Rev X)
- Second character in Mastering SID is a Q not an O.
- Mould SIDs follow the following pattern: IFPI V9xy where X is a letter and Y is a number. There may be outliers that don't follow this format, but by-and-large this is the format they follow.
- MADE IN USA<tab>PDSC.CA -- This is a period, not a comma. (Needs confirmation)

bca2txt
Python script for converting a .bca file to a .txt file for easy copy/pasting to Redump.
Save code below as bca2txt.py, and drag-and-drop .bca file onto script to produce FILE.bca.txt
#!/usr/bin/env python import sys import os if (len(sys.argv) != 2): print('usage: ' + os.path.basename(__file__) + ' <64-byte BCA file>') sys.exit(1) bca_file_size = os.path.getsize(sys.argv[1]) if (bca_file_size != 64): print("BCA file is not 64 bytes") sys.exit(1) bca_file = open(sys.argv[1], 'rb') txt_file = open(sys.argv[1] + '.txt', 'w') for x in range(4): for y in range(8): val = bca_file.read(2) txt_file.write(bytes(val).hex().upper()) if (y != 7): txt_file.write(' ') else: txt_file.write('\n')
