DMG? Never heard of it. Auxiliary Input that.

If the normal toggle of "Table of Contents dection" and holding down the left-shift key don't work, then check google.

Also, this is more appropriate for the "DRM and Copy Protection Forum".

1. Google is your best friend.
2. Yeah, this is more for the Copy Protection Forum.
3. Have you tried ripping this CD using another program? Do you still have failure with those other programs?

From my favourite file extenson program, here's the definition of .dmg
This program is from Apple:

Treated like a real disk. Can be created with Disk Copy, burnt to CD or mounted as a normal volume. The dmg2iso program will convert a .DMG file to an .ISO file which can then be burned to a CD or read using an .ISO file reader. Note: You have to run the dmg2iso program at a command prompt using the same command as listed on the site for the Perl version, substituting .EXE for .PL in the command. DMGs can be password-protected and, if so, may not be mountable by some software. The DMG file also comes in different formats: HFS, HFS+, UFS, ProDOS, Linux, and Fat32 and so may also require special mounting software to account for the format. IsoBuster can interpret these files directly.

Hope this helps - even for schoolboys!
