With all other cases being functional (a system that can successfully read a disk to an .scp file and write a working 'fresh' copy from the .scp file to a blank disk), I've run in to a problem with a 'newly generated' .scp that I'm hoping to have you take a look at, Jim. ;-)
We've been dumping original Atari media for maximum 'preservation' and in turn converting the .scp's in to .atx images for use in emulators. a8rawconv can take a .atx image and output a new .scp file, which seems like an interesting way to 're-master' old copy protected disks. When I create a new .scp file using that method however, Disk Archiver fails to write it with a "USB Timeout Error!" at track 16. I assume it's a problem with the newly generated .scp (the setup works fine with .scp file imaged from original disks and written back out, for example).
Any chance you could take a look at this and see what it might be about a8rawconv's .scp output that breaks Disk Archiver so we might try to fix it?
