Skip bad sectors (while copying)?

Hi, searched the forum but couldn't find anything.

Is it possible to force TC to skip bad sectors when copying files? I have lots of old cds/dvds to copy and some of them have bad sectors.

TC in such cases offers to Retry/Abort only.

Maybe there are some plugins that allow this? I mean, as an ultimate file manager TC should be able to skip bad sectors :)

Oh, thanks, i'll try them.

Still, i suggest that this functionality should be native to TC :)

Add a new tool CBD(Copy Bad Disk) that can skip bad sectors when copying files.
