I have been using dMC Audio CD Input to rip and encode some of CD's to FLAC. I have Accurate Rip installed and I have noticed that some CD's have come as an inaccurate rip. When transfering these FLAC encoded files over to my Kenwood Music Keg I have noticed spots of Diginoise and long silence on these inaccurately ripped CD's. How do I overcome this problem?

If you listen to the files on your computer prior to transfer, do they also display the diginoise and long silence?
If not, I would think the likely culprit is either your transfer protocol or your player (you might check the latter by uploading one of these files from your Music Keg to your computer and seeing if the problem still persists).

Best wishes,
Bill

Try cleaning the CD, there are also cd repair products that do help (they fill the scratch lines).

you can use toothpaste on CDs to buff out the scratches ;)

More information on the toothpaste method:
Spread wet toothpaste on the CD. The fine toothpaste, not the coarse stuff.
Wait for the toothpaste to dry
Wipe the toothpaste off under running water.

If I am wrong, feel free to correct me, as I've never used this method before.

Edit: thanks gameplaya

do NOT use gritty toothpaste, it will just scratch the CD
if it feels gritty in your mouth, keep it off your CDs
you just use the normal/fine toothpaste

squirt some on your finger... and rub away on the scratched spot

it will take away the shine, and you will be able to see very very small scratches, but the lazer wont care about those

using toothpaste is like using very very fine sandpaper on the cd, i think (and hope) we all know how sandpaper works

used this on a friends DVD that wouldnt play, buffed out a giant scratch.. plays like new :D

@ gallagher419: try turning on 'slow ripping'
