Detailed Description

VC4 Virtual CD images are an interesting format that support DPM, twin sectors, multiple levels of compression, password protection, and more. Unfortunately, it's closed source, meaning that it may be difficult to add support for. I can create more test images if needed, but the included one is a "Full copy" of a standard CD-ROM with its options for DPM and twin sector reading enabled.
