Title: Glitches and EAC Post by: PeterSt on May 31, 2007, 07:42:04 pm (continued from here : http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=24.msg105#msg105)
Haha, thank you Klaus ! But I am interested in that just the same. So I tried to say with care that this should just be allowed. For that matter it is a general subject, so please continue it. What I can add to it : I have created a "Glitch" checker. Something similar as is contained in Wavelab (5.1 anyway), but a bit more "intelligent" and dedicated to what we do with audio here. Well, I detect many in many CDs (many means : hundreds of pieces of glitches of, say, 1000 samples per subsequent piece). Rip such a track again until the glitches have gone, and you're done. So much for EAC ... It will be part of the player, and when time comes I will create a separate topic on this. Peter Title: Glitches and EAC Post by: soundcheck on May 31, 2007, 08:43:56 pm I tried to address the glitch issue some time ago. I don't remember if we had this discussion at Berts forum. EAC reported often 1000s of glitches. Sometimes I even had huge differences between the right and left channel. I addressed it within the EAC forum and I had been in discussions with the XRCD distributor in Germany. Without any success I mean, these glichtes are obvious production flaws. No idea why the labels don't take care on these. Great that there'll be a tool to remove them in a proper manner. EAC is just completely removing them afaik. Cheers Klaus Title: Glitches and EAC Post by: PeterSt on May 31, 2007, 09:29:47 pm I talk about re-ripping with EAC again, and then they are gone. So in the end everything is OK on the CD, but EAC doesn't read it properly.
I have the example of tracks being "in the middle" of a CD not being ripped properlt (and EAC reports all is okay), but in the mean time it's quite a mess. Never mind it's because of something else wrong in my system; Rip the track on its own, and then it's okay. Sometimes it needs more attempts. Oh, Cache is off. Title: Glitches and EAC Post by: soundcheck on May 31, 2007, 09:49:02 pm That's interesting! How about Accurate Rip. Glichtes would change the checksum. If the problem would be caused by the PC in general, not any result would be the same. Cheers Title: Glitches and EAC Post by: PeterSt on May 31, 2007, 10:25:37 pm Personally I can't deal with Accuraterip. Half of the time all checksums are different, with my "easy" conclusion : the CD is different.
I just don't know how to judge the results. |
