I am trying to rip a brand new CD into FLAC using EAC (99b5) and after more than 3 hours it is still only on track 4 of 11! The "Est. Remaining" field shows nearly 10 hours.
Before I started I carefully set up EAC (with AccurateRip & FLAC 1.7.1) using one of the preferred online tutorials, and my drive is a Plextor PX-810SA SATA which is fairly new. The CD is fresh out of the package with no dust, fingerprints or scratches. I have it running in "Test and Copy" mode, NOT paranoid mode. Each of the first 3 tracks ripped and compressed is showing sync errors. Is the CD bad or could it be my drive? I haven't ripped any new CDs in a while, but I've never had one rip this slowly ever before. FWIW: In the "error correction" red checkerboxes, the top 16 boxes fill left to right on each sequential read of the disc before it proceeds. It never goes any further than just those top 16 boxes. This is a new one, I've ripped over 1000 CDs over the last few years. If it is a bad disc it is unfortunate as I bought this at a small outdoor concert of a local band while I was traveling. Not certain I can even replace it. -- Jetlag Two SB3's and a Transporter, SC running on my ReadyNAS Pro What can I say, I'm a NAS Man! ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jetlag's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1012 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65803 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
