I can't really tell where the problem is.  There isn't any debug info in the file and 
a stack 
trace just gives some addresses.  gdb managed to ignore my best efforts to 
dissassemble the code 
around the exception.

Send me a binary with debugging info included.

I was thinking something simple like just re-reading the info and then comparing it 
with what's 
in the file previously read.  Of course if the player read it wrong once then whos to 
say that 
it won't read it incorrect the second time.  I would guess that the odds of being 
incorrect in 
exactly the same way are pretty small though.  Perhaps an optional number to the 
command  (e.g 
--verfiy 2) indicates how many times to re-read the frame and compare.   Then keep a 
running 
total of how many frames had different values.  You could also compute the std 
deiviation of the 
error as well but I don't know how usefull that would be.

A re-read verify option would also let you take some known wav's, build a test image, 
burn that 
image to disk and then run the verify over and over to see it you always get an exact 
match back 
from the read.  Can you send cdrdao output to stdout?

Yes... I have a sony cd changer that does CD-TEXT and it worked great.  That's the 
reason I want 
to reburn about 200 CD's.  That way I don't have to enter the info into the changer by 
hand and 
allows you to move cd positions.  Without CD-TEXT if you change locations of the CD 
you lose any 
info you entered.
