I could have swore the spinning backwards was just a rumor. I doubt the discs actually spin backwards, they would need totally special drives and firmware..

im pretty sure it needs to spin backwards to make a valid dump of the disc... perhapse they have improved and worked out a way to reverse the code thus not needing to spin the disc backwards now? i highly doubt it and if they did then it would be extremely cpu heavy lol.

There is an easy way to see what's written on the CD.

1. Download WBFS Manager from this link:- https://wbfsmanager.codeplex.com/

2. Open it and select your CD drive.

3. You will see which game is in it.

Sorry, but this will not help in getting the music. You can see the names of the songs in Credits and search & download them.

If you want to do it manually:-

1. Download Dolphin Emulator from this link:- http://www.dolphin-e...m/download.html

With this app you can play Wii games on your PC.

2. See what is needed to run Dolphin Emulator at this link:- http://www.dolphin-e...om/support.html

3. Open your CD game and start playing it on your PC.

4. When you hear the song you want to burn, use the help of a system audio recorder to record it.

It maybe difficult, but has 100% chance of working if done correctly.

Well yeah, but Dolphin still has issues with audio emulation (Though it IS making huge strides lately towards improving it).

My CD/DVD drive works fine with my Wii games on Dolphin.

Edit: Can't you find most of these songs around online anyway?

I didn't realize this had been bumped a month ago, but guys... seriously. The thread's over eight years old, and the member who posted it hasn't even visited the site in nearly five. We don't have a hard and fast rule against posting in old topics, but this is one of those cases where there's really no point in keeping the thread open.
