Hi everyone. I Sometimes use Mode2CdMaker to put 800 mb on 700 mb cd. It works great,but as i understand, no error correction is available in this mode, so any scratch will lead to unreadable data( please correct me if i wrong) But i heard that putting OGM files on such cd's is better, cause they have some built-in error correction or something like that. Can anyone tell me if it is true?

AFAIK your player will crash if you try to play a scratched mode2 cd with an avi on it, but if you have an ogm on it will probly still play but with some corrupted picture and sound when reading the damaged part ov the cd
