Re: media problems ....

Is it just one CD or all? check the ripping mode is not set to 'defective by design'

it could happen to any CD.

Re: media problems ....

There is a difference between ripping a CD in CD Ripper and playing a CD in a CD player.

CD Ripper tries to extract the digital audio data exactly, to obtain a bit perfect copy of the data. It will keep trying until either it does or stops depending on the CD Ripper Secure Settings and then reports the outcome, including any errors found.

A CD player is designed to read a CD, and when it gets errors it then interpolates the missing digital audio data, which hopefully on playback, you will not hear.

yes, I am aware of this ....
many thanks

Re: media problems ....

This is another problem, so you'll have to provide more info and/or post the secure extraction log.

Re: media problems ....

As I said, CDs can contain manufacturing defects as well as scratches.

Manufacturing errors are often not visible to the naked eye.

yes, you are right ... many thanks
