I've been using EAC's for a while with different rip times on different Plextor drives. I never tried dbp. At the time I was looking for a ripper, EAC seemed to be the recommended choice. What extra metadata are you referring to? I have set EAC to set the comment field to "freedb ID and Track CRC" and with a batch I append the AccurateRip info so my Comment Tag would look like similar to this: "freedb ID 780D290A\\Track CRC D5AF1537\\Accurately ripped (confidence 117) [01B7D919]" Is there some additional metadata that dbp gives you? What about artwork? Where does it get it from? What resolution is it? Thanks. -- flacfan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flacfan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17385 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53344 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
