Dougal--that's great news about Wine and EAC. I'll try it out again. The problem with cdparanoia is the drive caching. If you set cdparanoia to "read forever", it could read forever out of the drive's cache, not off the disk. If this happens, you are guaranteed to read the same exact same data 10 out of 10 reads, even if that is not what's on the disk. cdparanoia will not only read the bad data as if it were good, but it might not even report that there was a problem in the first place.
It can catch some types of errors. And matched with the right drive (a noncaching drive), it can be nearly perfect. But it's not as good as EAC by a long shot I'm afraid. The original poster wanted something with the quality of EAC. At the moment, an early development version of Rubyripper, and apparently using EAC under Wine, may be your only options. -- CatBus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CatBus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7461 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33042 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
