\begin{abstract}
This is the {\em blue manual}, describing the data formats of the dvdisaster
Reed-Solomon codecs which are currently called RS01, RS02 and RS03.
The codecs create Reed-Solomon parity data to protect data stored on optical media.
Depending on the codec, parity data can either be stored in a separate file 
or be integrated with the .iso image on the same medium. 
See \homepage for additional resources on the dvdisaster pro\-ject,
e.g. for the {\em orange manual} (manual.pdf) containing information for end users.
\end{abstract}

\bigskip

{\bf Target audience.} This paper is primarily intended as a working base for the
dvdisaster developers and, when the final version has been crafted, as an implementation
guide for third party developers who wish to create and process dvdisaster error correction data.
It is {\bf neither intended nor suitable} as end-user documentation; for usage information
please refer to the online documentation at \homepage.

\bigskip

{\bf Prerequisites.} This paper assumes profound knowledge of coding theory and the 
underlying math. The reader is assumed to have a thorough understanding of Reed-Solomon
codes, both in theory and from an implementation viewpoint. A basic understanding
of programming in C is also assumed.
