Version
What version are you using?

  • Stable release (2.6.3) - at the time of submitting this report it's equivalent to the WIP release

Build
What runtime version are you using?

  • .NET Framework 4.8 running on Windows 10

Describe the issue
Aaru requires that the output file extension is .aaruf and not .bin. Supplying a path with a wrong extension will make Aaru refuse to dump the disc. I vaguely recall that MPF used to supply a correct extension when selecting Aaru, but this is not the case anymore.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open MPF.
  2. Set Aaru as the dumping program. Observe that the output path in the Parameters field points to a .bin file.
  3. Start dumping, notice Aaru refuses to dump the file.
  4. Change the output path to point to an .aaruf file and start dumping again.
  5. Notice dumping proceeds as expected.

Expected behavior
MPF defaults to a correct .aaruf extension when using Aaru as the dumping program.
