			MIL-CDs are Multisession


			How to calculate multisession range (MPF should do this automatically now):
			*Open disc.txt in logs and go to TOC
			*Session 1 range is LBA 0 to (last sector in session 1 minus 11400)
			*Session 2 range is (first sector in session 2 to last sector of disc)
			Example:
			Audio Track 1, LBA 0 - 14887, Length 14888
			Audio Track 2, LBA 14888 - 15484, Length 597
			Audio Track 3, LBA 15485 - 226234, Length 210750
			Audio Track 4, LBA 226235 - 226831, Length 597
			Audio Track 5, LBA 226832 - 227278, Length 447
			---
			Session 1: 0-3487 -> (14887-11400)
			Session 2: 14888-227278
