Six year bump, to state that the ripping project is nearing completion. Titles aren't generally available yet, but they'll be uploaded to archive.org sometime over the next few months. Details on my site here:

And details on a working emulator I've put together here:

Explore the rest of the section for a lot of technical information on the system itself, as well as procedures for making disc backups using the Domesday Duplicator.

FWIW, there are a few LDF-format Domesday rips up on archive.org already. Specificaly Ghost Rush, Triad Stone, Virtual Cameraman and Akuma no Shinban (Devil's Jugement). Obviously they would need conversion before use with your Ares fork (and the last one is for the NEC PAC).

Yep, saw that. Some of those rips might be redone soon, to capture the lead-in and lead-out. I've been chatting with the people behind those releases. I've got a ripping guide with the approach I used online here:

Most of my changes to the capture software have been merged to the upstream Domesday Duplicator software at this point, but I've got a few more changes I need to tidy up and push which capture some extra information like decoded user codes from the lead-in, and some extra metadata during the capture process. Still a LOT of things I need to get contributed back to ld-decode in terms of the decode pipeline (especially on the EFM side), but I haven't written that part up yet.
