I seem to recall when I was in the market for a DVD burner that some drives handle copy protection better than others, both playback and ripping.
>From Googling, I found that the NEC 5040a (I think, I'm at work at the mo') which I bought is a good one for ripping whilst ignoring copy protection. http://www.cdfreaks.com/devices/ is a good resource. What worked for me (Win XP SP 2)... Install drive Turn off all auto-run in the registry (plenty of info if you search the web) Install cd-ex http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/ In cd-ex drive options, set ripping method to "Paranoia, Full" Insert disc, rip everything apart from the data track I've never used it, but I **think** cd-ex can do flac. The bulk of my stuff is 320kbps CBR mp3, which it does superbly once you've told it where your lame.dll is located. I don't think there's the error checking that you get with EAC though, but the above ripping method's never failed with a copy protected disc yet! -- moley6knipe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ moley6knipe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10014 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37201 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
