#*For disc prototypes, this is usually a mix of these:
#**The disc header date (if the disc contains a header).
#**The primary volume creation date at:
#*** 0x963d of the first track on raw 2352 (bin/cue) dumps.

#**The '''latest''' file modification date on the disc(s).  
#**The '''latest''' file modification date on the disc(s).  
#*** Beware of early platforms like Sega CD and Sega Saturn, where CD-Rs were burned manually and often had faked volume creation and file modification dates.
