Different confidence rating with R14 and R13.5/EAC

[hoju]

Ok, I'm getting weird AccurateRip results with a few CDs that I'm ripping. They are (so far):

Desire (2003 SACD remaster) - Bob Dylan
Anthology 3 - The Beatles

When I rip any of the above discs, I get a surprisingly low rating on each track; Accurate (2) on Desire, (3) on Anthology 3. Now, these aren't recent releases or pressings (Desire is from the Limited Edition box set, with the other discs getting >100), and I was sure that they had higher results when they'd been ripped previously so I did some testing...

EAC (using the same AccurateRip.dll) returned Accurate (139), as did dBpoweramp CD Ripper R13.5. I tried disabling the cross-pressing verification and clearing the CDRipperCache.bin file, but it didn't help.

Any ideas why the results are different?

If you post your logs I could tell you for sure, but 99.99% chance is that you are getting AccurateRip 2 results with R14, which is not implemented in EAC or R13.5.

Thanks for that, I didn't realise. Is the AccurateRip 2 database separate from 1?

Here are the logs. I can't get to the system running R13.5 to post the logs, but I will when I get the chance...

EliC is right, R14 is using AR2, see here.
