    Quirks or Noob Misunderstanding?

    I have spent the last several days reading through the forums, so if I missed the answer elsewhere, sorry about that..... I am new to dBpoweramp and am using the reference version. I am getting ready to rip close to 1000 CDs, so I am trying to get this right.

    1) I have left naming at default, yet CDs are named differently (not talking about compilations vs. non compilations to be clear). Some go Artist - Track - Song, others go track - artist - song. This can be in the same folder (see question 3 for more detail on mixed in same folder).

    2) When ever I rip a CD I almost always have one song which fails the accuraterip, but is a secure rip. Re-ripping it fails to have it match accurate rip. Why is this? (Note: I set my settings to Spoon's settings in his Oct. post - C2 on, leave the cache at 1024KB and have 1 min ultra pass with finish after 1 clean pass.) I have tried checking / unchecking the secure rip at different speeds, but it makes no difference in at least one song failing accuraterip.

    3) When I re-rip, if I right click and select the option to re-rip inaccurate /insecure /secure (warning) it doesn't overwrite the song. It uses a different naming convention. If I uncheck all, then check only the song I want to redo it overwrites. Why the difference?

    Other info: Ripping on a HT-DT-ST-DVDRAM GH15F, 3MB DDR3 on Vista x64 Home Premium. I downloaded the dBpoweramp 2 days ago, so it should be current

    Any advice / guidance for this noob is appreciated.

    2. I haven't had the best luck with hitachi drives myself.
    Is it by any chance the last song that is the problem most of the time?

      No, the song seems to be random, but typically in the middle of the disc. Every so often I get a perfect disc though.
