That's not entirely true - the error correction happens in the CD PLAYER during real-time playback. If there is a frame or two that are corrupt (@ 75-frames per second) then the player interpolates its BEST GUESS of what should fill the 'hole' based on what was happening before or after the error. Ripping doesn't have error correction for audio, but I think you already said that. -- Eric Seaberg Eric Seaberg - San Diego - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Seaberg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7896 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49492 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
