CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

[danellon]

I just installed CD Ripper on my Windows 7 system today and I tried to rip a CD, first to FLAC and then to mp3. On both occasions the resulting ripped files are less than 100kb each. I tried ripping a different cd using my portable dvd writer instead - same result :( What could I be doing wrong? Is there some setting that is off? Please help.

Try ripping to wave as a test and make sure no DSP effects are being used (on DSP tab).

Re: CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

I just tried ripping to wave with the DSP tab blank. Same result :(

Try CD Ripper >> Options >> Communication

set this to Windows Internal

Same thing with the Communication set to Windows Internal.

Just ran into that problem yesterday. 15.2 beta ptoduces strange results with flac encoder. Using an external Samsung drive on my iMac generates faulty very small files, using the internal drive gives proper results. Reverted back to 15.1, everything is fine again with both drives. Please see attachment for details.

R15.2 beta issues please post to the beta thread.

Danellon open dBpoweramp configuration, on the music converter tab enable debug option. Start cd ripper, rip one cd, then close ripper and post log here please.

Will do. Posted here because issue seemed the same. You may want to move / delete my post.

Here is a cd rip debug log as requested

Re: CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

There should have been a 2nd log also when cd ripper is closed.

Re: CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

My apologies. Here are the log files.

This is the issue I am sure, you should have CD Ripper >> Options >> Communication set to SCSI Pass Through (SPT)

[danellon]

Re: CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

I originally had the Communication set to SCSI Pass Through (SPT), with the same problems. Attached are the log using these settings.

Run this:

http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?13285-Totally-Clearing-dBpoweramp-from-the-System

To clear the settings, then reinstall, and try ripping a CD with the default settings (do not change anything).

Re: CD Ripper files not ripping complete files

I followed the clearing and re-install instructions as indicated in the link, but I got the same result.

However, upon trying to perform a 2nd cd rip, I realized what the problem was. I have Comodo Antivirus/Defense+ installed and apparently it was placing the dBpoweramp CoreConverter in "isolation". I therefore changed the Comodo settings to recognize Illustrate as a trusted program publisher and voila, I'm now able to rip my cd's!

Nevertheless thanks for the assistance Spoon and mrsponsi!

Now I have some serious ripping to do...
