Need Help with Cleanrip - Xaessya - 09-25-2016

I was trying to to rip/dump (whichever you want to call it) my Wii and Gamecube games through the Wii with Cleanrip.
Although I did come across some problems I couldn't find the answer to.

When I was trying to dump Phantasy Star Online III Card Revolution and Dokapon Kingdom, it brings up an error that says: "unrecovered read error" I'm not sure if its an error with the system or the game? I got one successful rip and that was Timesplitters Future Perfect.

Also I tried Metroid Prime Trilogy and Sakura Wars: So Long My Love on Cleanrip and it made several disc on the SD Card (it also asked if it was dual layer and I think only Metroid was) when I tried loading both disc that came from the rip and neither one of them played in Dolphin. I was wondering how to overcome these?

"unrecovered read error" means that the drive couldn't read the disc. Either the drive or the disc has a problem. If you are lucky, trying again a few times or cleaning the disc works.

When dumping wii games to a sd card, you get several files that you need to combine, before you can play them in Dolphin. I always use the windows built-in command line version for that:

(open cmd, type copy /b file1.iso + file2.iso game.iso)

You might want Dolphin calculate the md5 checksum of your isos after that. Just google the md5, and you'll find out if you have a proper dump most of the time. SD card support on wii is a bit dodgy sometimes.

I know this is a really late reply but the (open cmd, type copy /b file1.iso + file2.iso game.iso) does not work for me.
Files are named SW1 and SW2 and I type "copy /b sw1.iso + sw2.iso sw.iso" and it says: "The system cannot find the file specified"

That's weird. Have you used cmd or somethig similar before? Are you in the correct folder? You can use the "cd" command to change folders. And you can use the TAB button to auto complete filenames when typing.
