DVDisaster cover story in Linux Format 116
I wrote the cover story on DVDisaster for the latest issue of Linux Format magazine. This is my first article for LXF and it was a wonderful experience.
It’s quite different from writing for Linux.com in many ways. While Linux.com pressed for a more to-the-point structure, LXF insists on entertaining readers and not being a straight arrow. Consequently, Linux.com didn’t allow for much humor but LXF won’t accept write-ups any other way.
Can’t wait to see my mug on the glossy pages. Would you believe I’ve bee singing Klingon drinking songs for a few days now:
‘ej HumtaH ‘ej DechtaH ‘Iw
‘ej Doq SoDtaH ghoSpa’ Sqral bIQtIq
‘e’ pa’ jaj law’ mo’ jaj puS
jaj qeylIS molar mIgh HoHchu’qu’
It just isn’t the same in English.
And finally, do try DVDisaster if you’ve ever lost one of your backup discs. With DVDisaster you can create Error Correction files for your discs. You can then use these ECC files to rescue data off of discs with scratched surfaces and missing sectors.
