I think you're thinking of dvdisaster, whose site is defunct, though it's been forked on GitHub. I'd suggest par2 instead, as you can separate the recovery files from the media.
- pmoriarty 5y agoYou're right. I was thinking of dvdisaster. My mistake. However, par2 is not a substitute for it, as without the kind of ECC that dvdisaster puts on the CD/DVD, the files on it might not even be readable, so the par2 files on it would themselves be inaccessible, making them worthless.
- pronoiac 5y agoWhen I mentioned separating the recovery files, I meant "burn them on the media and also copy them somewhere else." I think par2 can pull data from a re-ripped iso even without, say, legible file names.
