CD Ripper tracks stuck at 99%

[TheLastMan]

My CD Ripper installation has suddenly developed a peculiar bug, having worked perfectly for months.

I start ripping a CD using Accurate Rip. Two tracks are ripped and encoded but both stop at 99% and progress no further. Previously it would report the Accurate Rip status and CRC number and move onto the next tracks. Now it just sticks at 99%. This is making the program unusable. Anybody have any idea why this might be?

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling twice to no effect.

Thanks for any help.

[Edit] Further info. The 99% tracks are finalised. Hovering over the file in Windows Explorer shows an information pop up with the Accurate Rip confidence result and a CRC result. So the problem seems to be one of the program not being able to move onto the next track and display the result for some reason.

Sorted - it was the Verify function

This has not caused a problem before, but unticking the "verify" box allowed the program to function normally again. Not sure why this might be.

Are you ripping to a local drive or a network drive? What format are you ripping to?

For how long? With "verify", you will have a temporary uncompressed file, and then dBpoweramp will decode your file and compare it to the temp. This takes time.

I am using FLAC. After further thought I am not sure that the "verify" box was ticked before, I may have ticked it by accident - hence the change in behaviour.

The music was being ripped to a Synology 107+ NAS from my PC. Network slowness probably compounded the problem.

Just as a test I ripped a 175 MB track from a CD. Without verify it ripped successfully in about 5 minutes to a 95MB Flac file. With verify enabled I gave up after 20 minutes!

Thanks for the responses anyway!
