Professional
software for intensive analysis and extraction of data from
CD-R, CD-RW and all types of DVD media - including HD DVD
and Blu-Ray.. Tailored for professionals in data recovery,
forensics, and law enforcement. Building on the data
recovery technology in CD/DVD Diagnostic™, it adds
detailed displays and enhanced media search abilities,
improving performance and usability. With the release of the
4.1 version, this is now the forensic tool you should be
using.
CD/DVD Inspector reads all major CD and DVD filesystem
formats including ISO-9660, Joliet, UDF, HSG, HFS and HFS+.
When the disc being examined contains more than a single
filesystem, all filesystems found are displayed. Multiple
filesystems are present for hybrid Macintosh/PC discs as
well as for discs that are produced by DirectCD and other
packet-writing software. DVD Video discs include both the
UDF and ISO-9660 filesystem as well.
CD/DVD Inspector now includes a flexible report generator
which can be tailored to your specific requirements. Over 50
separate data items can be selected for reports with output
in direct to print, HTML, text file or CSV. With printed and
HTML reports thumbnails can be included for pictures.
Reports can be sorted by any data item included in the
report.
Features
Flexible Report Generator
Reports can be produced for print, HTML, text file or CSV
output with over 50 different data items selectable. An
unlimited number of user-defined reports can be created.
Automated
Media Collection
Put up to 300 discs at once in one of the supported Robotic
Loader systems and it will automatically collect all content
from every disc. Flexible reporting for each disc processed.
Import the results directly into EnCase or FTK. Optionally
photograph each disc as it is processed.
Complete
CD Imaging
Now CD/DVD Inspector can create an image file containing all
of the information required to completely process any disc
in a set of two files. The first file contains the complete
"raw" track data with all subchannels from a CD
and all of the user sector data from all sessions on a DVD.
The second file is in XML format and contains all of the
information that CD/DVD Inspector has extracted from the
various control structures on the disc and the file systems.
Transfer
data collected to EnCase, FTK, etc.
Captures all files, even those not part of the directory
structure (deleted or damaged)
One-step image collection from otherwise inaccessible CD or
DVD discs.
Use of 'hard links" minimizes size of the image file
while retaining complete content of the disc.
Drag-and-drop a single file per disc
File scanning
“Inaccessible” discs files can be searched using scan
specification syntax, including regular expressions.
Built-in Image Viewer
This tool identifies files containing graphic content (ART,
BMP, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, etc.) independent of the file
extension.
Supports RAW images from over 125 different digital cameras.
Low-level sector examination and scanning
Displays sectors in hexadecimal and character. It also scans
all sectors of a disc for particular data For example, it
locates an email address on a disc regardless of what file
the mail may be in. This searches the complete disc, not
just areas identified as belonging to files.
Data pane
Allows direct examination of the contents of files on the
disc from the main window. The information can be displayed
in either character or hexadecimal/character form. The data
pane can be resized and scrolled as needed.
Disc Memory and Checkpoint
This feature eliminates lengthy re-discovery of the disc’s
contents. Additionally, it allows for interruption of a disc
examination and then resumption of that same examination at
a later time. This is useful as some disc examinations can
be lengthy, often taking more than 12 hours.
Intensive Disc Examination
Locates data on discs that has been dropped from the file
system, either because of software glitches, deletion or
user action. This is now done for all format discs.
Expanded Retry Capabilities
Permits users to select the level of automatic retries
performed whenever a data error is encountered. This can
make otherwise unreadable data sectors readable again. This
allows the user to balance examination speed with
thoroughness.
CD Text, ISRC and RID Audio Disc Display.
CD Text contains album, track and artist names on Sony and
home-produced music CDs.
ISRC is the acronym for International Standard Recording
Code. It is a code used to identify the recording studio and
publisher of a music track.
RID is the acronym for Recorder Identification. It is
written to music CDs recorded on standalone CD recorders
used with audio systems.
