Thanks for the reply. I guess you are right for CDs with Accurate Rip.

But would you think that if there are memory errors during a longer rip (say 15 mins for a Blu Ray or DVD), would that be...

Hello there!
I have been using dBpoweramp for quite some time and rarely had problems. But now I am wondering if there would be any benefit in building a system with ECC Ram. This would also require...

Great! Thanks, now I can sleep better :) Also overall good to know that accurate rip does differentiate between such differences...

1. One more important question off topic that had me confused, I...

Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I am wrong but things like "artifacts" and "problems with lead voice" sound a bit scary even more so if you don't know if it just involves the last version or...

Hi there,
I am a bit worried, ever since ripping 128 cbr mp3s ten years ago and having to do it all again, about the quality of the mp3s. Now at least I have some safety with flacs but I still need...

I second that. Easier backup of the profiles/settings would be most appreciated.
That being said, you can just dig down in the registry to the Profiles set and only export that. That way at least...

Thank you ver very much for your insights.
So, just a few more short questions:
If you would transcode I would imagine you would do that without the +6 amplification, is that all that option does?...

You got me a little worried about the swapping of the left and right... I have an about 5 year old Samsung external drive (DVD rewriter) doing most of my rips. Is there a way to tell? I mean on some...

1. Do you do this just to listen to a file or before a transcode to lossy?

2. a. So do you first take a lossless file, then take off 6db and then transcode with the HDCD option with the...

Also thanks in this thread for your replies...
So again it would make the most sense to rip flac, then later transcode to mp3 with the HDCD option. And to make it simple, and get no clipping, always...

Thanks for your help.
So could you actually think of the results with a different pressing offset as identical to your copy? Meaning that you could safely assume the accuracy is even higher than...

Thanks a lot, so in (hopefully) closing:
A: when ripping to losless (flac) leave the option off (and you'll still get all the HDCD data), then you can play this with an HDCD player (ex. foobar) and...

Thanks. You are 100% sure on this?
I get 16 bit flacs without the option, 24 bit flacs with it. My understanding was that hdcd has 20 bits, surprising how those fit in a 16 bit flac file.
So then...

Thanks for your quick answer and time and for the clarification. It is suprising to see results of 200, even more so if your own results are consistently less. But nonetheless reassuring that...

Thanks a lot for the tip (and now I am a bit more confused). I posted my thoughs on that post.

I still am a bit frustrated to still see with almost any rip I do that the result of my rips have a...

Hi,
thanks for all this info in these posts but correct me if I am wrong:
if you rip *without* the HDCD option the lossless flac file will be 16 bit and no more; thus the extra bits of a HDCD...

Thanks for the fast repl.

and the different sized output whith the HDCD option? Just coincidence or does the +6 amplification get added to non HDCDs as well?

Hi,
when I use the HDCD DSP on non HDCD discs, the flac files that are output are slightly larger (around 20kb more per avarage 4 min track) compared to a rip without this option. Both rips output...

Thanks,
so will it help to keep my fingers crossed for the change in tag fields, converter metadata lookup and a Mac version?

Hi there,
first off a big thank you for creating such a stable, easy to use and overall great program!

I have some minor recomendations to make it even better a few simple questions...

1. It...

Well,I checked and rechecked: It just won't give me a second folder if there are multiple disks although my parameters seem correct... well at least it does not overwrite anything just throws all...

Thanks for your answer.
Strange, even though all is set correctly it often does not do it...
Quick question: can or will some drives, when ripping, correct scratches better than others? Will the C2...

Thank you! You are super! This is almost perfect (I would have perferred to not even have a second album folder if it is a comp with a single disc that's why I tried: [IFCOMP][album]\[IFMULTI][album]...

Thanks for your reply, you are the best!

However won't your naming always result in a folder with the album name first (even when not a comp.)?
[album]\[IFCOMP][IFMULTI][album] CD...

Thks for the reply but when [auto] is set and you use the dropdown it states:
1 mono
2 stereo [auto]
3 joint stereo
4 forced joint stereo

maybe a small typo or does that have to do with...
