English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Anyone every coded a CDTV data read routine without using the OS ?

that would be a good boost for my CDTVload project (like CD32load but for CDTV).

Personally I just used Stephen resourced CDTV device to read a track but no ISO support, etc... so I was planning to merge CD32 loading module (which works) with CDTV raw read but it's more complicated as it seems.

Next idea was to rewrite raw to ISO read in C and integrate the sector read. But didn't do it.

So your project would be perfect for my CDTVLoad project. And patching games directly using your code is a waste of time anyway, since whdload slaves already do it, plus protection removal plus 2/3 button support, etc...
