I bought a new PC from Dell and installed dBpoweramp trial version. I've been trying now for a couple of weeks to get AccurateRip configured. I have literally tried well over 200+ CDs. I have had 2 CDs successfully keyed in previous sessions (I'm not sure if these two successes from previous sessions are "held" somewhere until I can get the elusive third one to read or if I have to get them all to read in the same session.). I am really starting to give up hope here. I have had other PCs in the past and used AccurateRip have never had trouble configuring the software like this.
I did find a previous post with a user that had the exact drive as me (GU90N) and they were also having trouble. I have received 2 messages when trying to read keyed CDs (of which most that I've tried are on the list located here: http://www.accuraterip.com/keydiscs.htm). I do not have any super new discs to try. I generally digitally download any new items, so this is strictly for my older collection (although, most discs I've tried are very popular and are on the key disc list... greatest hits, must have classic albums, etc.). I get two messages: “This Key Disc cannot be used for offset detection it does not match the AccurateRip stored disc or your drive does not exist in AccurateRip and this disc has multiple pressings stored. Please try a different Key Disc.” and "AccurateRip will not key to this offset as it miss-matches the drive database offset. [ Calculated offset value: +6 samples, + 24 bytes ].
Can anyone advise on what my next step might be. Can I rip CDs anyway even if AccurateRip is not calibrated? My trial for the software is set to expire in 6 days and I want to see if I can even get this thing set up before I spend money on something that won't work for me.
Thanks for any information you can provide...
