CD Ripper missing first track of a CD
I've been using CD Ripper on and off for about 20 years and stumbled across some new today.
I tried ripping a brand new CD just unwrapped and the first track is missing in CD Ripper. It only displays tracks 2 through 21. I verified that track 2 is the correct track 2 and track 21 is the correct track 21. Track 1 is completely missing.
I can open the CD in VLC (Computer > Optical drive > Right-click > Play with VLC) and see and play track 1 and the rest of the album.
After ripping this CD (sans track 1) I then ripped 2 other new CDs without issue. All CDs are from the same band, and one of them was part of a multi-album pack that included the CD missing track 1.
