Hi
Like many I am getting organized to rip a large library. So I'd be really grateful if anyone could explain how the Secure Rip option interacts with the Abort, Interpolate and Defective by Design options. I understand broadly what these do, but I am unclear on a few points and have these questions:
1. If Interpolate is selected whether it will interpolate across ALL errors detected, and whether an interpolation will be referenced in the rip log
2. Whether Ripper will attempt to re-rip until I intervene if Abort is not enabled (Batch Ripper will run over night, so I'm a bit concerned about it not concluding a rip by morning) and
3. Whether Defective By Design (which is about reading protected CDs by emulating a non-PC CD deck) has any error identification or correction, and whether it uses the Interpolate option if enabled. And generally how it compares as a secure ripping method compared to Secure Rip.
I guess the important factor for me is that I get a rip that "sounds as close to how the original was intended as possible" even if this means I miss some bits, need to interpolate, or time limit my Secure Rips (I may collect a bunch of poorly ripped discs and attempt a slow Ultra Secure Rip but not as my first pass across the library).
The software is fantastic by the way, it has so many features and has performed well for me so far (admittedly I am yet to rip and listen to an entire library!). The Batch Ripper concept and multiple simultaneous encoding are excellent.:smile2:
Many thanks
