    Re: Strange Goings On! (PerfTunes/Foobar/Ripped FLACs)

    Hi,

    I am finding, as I gradually work my way through some of the 500 CDs which I have ripped to date, that some of the playbacks are occasionally skipping/jumping (for circa 1 second). By this I mean the CD plays fine for a period, but then it suddenly either goes silent for a second, or sounds akin to a scratched record; before resuming back to perfect playback.

    It has taken me a few days to try and perform something of a process-of-elimination, but I can confirm that it has happened on my work-PC (using foobar) via an external-HD, and also my Amazon Fire (using foobar) via an SD-card. I did believe (and Garym confirmed my suspicions) that it was related to the fact that - when using my Amazon Fire - I was listening through my new Sony wireless headphones (ie. the problem was caused by bluetooth drop-outs); but I can now confirm that I the problem happens when playing my laptop through my speakers also.

    Thus, I have run multiple scans using PerfectTunes (for all 5 storage devices housing my FLACs) and the results have come back unchanged and how I would expect them to be (ie. circa 30 albums have 'errors'). But none of these 'errors' correspond to the albums containing the playback-errors I am experiencing on my Amazon Fire and laptop. I cleared the cache in PerfTunes and the same results came back. Now I have uninstalled/reinstalled PerfTunes twice and there is still no change.

    I have wracked my brain as to what the issue me be. I keep my laptop offline most the time so I am sure I don't have a virus. All of my s/w is paid-for (ie. not 'crack').

    Therefore, I wondered, please, if someone might be kind enough to run a PerfTunes scan on one of the albums (Miles On The Corner) I have been experiencing such playback issues on (see LINK to My-Drive above). It seems to be mostly on tracks: 4 & 7 (Vote For Miles & Helen Butte). I would be extremely grateful if a member could clarify which results they achieve from PerfTunes scan; as I have no other way (ie PC) to perform this on now. It has taken me 2 weeks to get this far and now I have kinda hit a brick-wall!

    Very much appreciated as always,

    Paul

    Hey Paul,

    simple question: are you allowed to distribute that music?

    Hi folks,

    Rather than tag this on to an existing thread, I thought it wiser the create a fresh one as the problem many not be related to any issues of a similar type of which I have raised before.

    Here is a LINK to a folder in My-Drive of which I will discuss the contents tomorrow:

    Many thanks,

    Paul
