My question is:
why is 'AccurateRip: Inaccurate (confidence 7) Secure [Pass 1, Ultra 1 to 4]' reported Inaccurate (so 7 matches) while 'AccurateRip: Accurate (confidence 7) [Pass 1]' is reported Accurate, even while there are the SAME number of matches (also 7 here)?
I hope somebody can explain me what this means.

thx

Re: weird AR thing

If it says Inaccurate (confidence 7), it means that 7 people had rips that were different than yours. Secure [Pass 1, Ultra 1 to 4] means that dMC ripped the CD multiple times but had no errors.

so what is the conclusion then? dMC had no errors, but still 7 people had different tracks. Does this now mean the track is ripped accurately or not?

thx

Re: weird AR thing

It means that, most likely, your track has errors, but dMC did not detect them for whatever reason.

Re: weird AR thing

If you are not using c2 then consistant errors can fool any ripper. Make sure you have the right drive cache options set, if your drive does cache then the re-rips would always be wrong.

I have properly configured dbpoweramp reference and accuraterip!

- i have used a key-disc so accurate rip is configured and the offset is filled in

- My drive cache was detected and I have disabled it using the option

- C2 error pointers are enabled and detected by dbpoweramp, so my drive supports it

Can somebody tell me why I still get inaccurate results and how to solve it?
(BTW: it's only 1 track of the whole cd that gives "inaccurate", all the rest is "accurate")

thx in advance!

Re: weird AR thing

What is the drive?

[Dude]

Re: weird AR thing

What is the drive?

PLEXTOR CD-R PREMIUM firmware version 1.07 (latest)

And it's configured Ultra DMA2 (Ultra33), this settings is detected automatically by my BIOS

But it's only 1 track of the CD that gives inaccurate, all other tracks are accurate

Re: weird AR thing

That error is slipping past c2 verification, and 5x pass re-reads. Only by trying on a different drive would you get an answer if the cd is actually like that, or the drive is lettin ghte error slip thorugh.
