+The settings shown here configure dvdisaster for reading the defective medium.
+There are no dedicated settings for reconstructing the image from the error
+correction data.
+<pre> </pre>
+
+<?php begin_screen_shot("\"Image\" tab.","fix-prefs-image.png"); ?>
+<b>"Image" tab.</b> First choose the type of error correction data.
+Pick the setting "ISO/UDF" (marked green) if you have an error correction file.
+Otherwise choose "ECC/RS02" (marked blue) to process a medium which has been
+augmented with error correction data.<p>
+The adaptive reading strategy uses information from the error correction data to
+make the reading process as efficient as possible. Activate it using the button
+marked yellow.<p>
+Leave the remaining settings at the values shown in the screen shot.<p>
+<?php end_screen_shot(); ?>
+
+<?php begin_screen_shot("\"Drive\" tab.","fix-prefs-drive.png"); ?>
+<b>"Drive" tab.</b> Leave this tab at the shown default settings for the moment.
+Some drives might work better using the raw reading mode "21h". See the
+<a href="howtos43.php#21h">advanced settings</a> for more information.<p>
+<?php end_screen_shot(); ?>
+
+<?php begin_screen_shot("\"Reading attempts\" tab.","fix-prefs-read-attempts.png"); ?>
+<b>"Reading attempts" tab.</b> The strength of the adaptive reading strategy lies in
+finding the still readable sectors and avoiding the lengthy process of trying to read
+defective sectors. Therefore select "raw" reading (marked green) as it will not cost additional
+processing time, but reduce the number of reading attempts to the minimum values
+(marked yellow). Use a moderate termination criterium of 128 unreadable sectors
+(marked blue) for the first reading attempt. Do not activate raw sector caching yet.
+If it turns out that these settings do not provide enough data for a successful
+recovery they can be 
+<a href="howtos43.php">optimized</a> later.
+<p>
+<?php end_screen_shot(); ?>
+
+<?php begin_screen_shot("\"Files\" tab.","create-prefs-file.png"); ?>
+<b>"Files" tab.</b> 
+If your operating system can not create files larger than 2GB then you
+must choose the "Split files " setting (marked green). In that case
+dvdisaster will create up to 100 segments called "medium00.iso",
+"medium01.iso" etc. instead of a single "medium.iso" file. Using this
+option results in a small performance hit. This option is mostly
+useful under Windows if the old FAT32 file system is still used. Leave
+the other settings off as shown in the screen shot.
+<?php end_screen_shot(); ?>
+
+<pre> </pre>
+
+<b>Not used tabs</b><p>
+
+The "Error correction" tab has no influence on the reading process.
+The "Misc" tab currently has only functions for creating
+log files. This is helpful for sending in <a href="feedback.php">bug reports</a>
+but should be left off during normal operation.
+The "Appearance" tab allows you to adapt the output colors to your taste, 
+but these have no further effects on the reading process.
