Extreme large first track
Hello all,
I am trying to rip The Byrds - Turn! Turn! Turn! [1996 Expanded Remaster].
The first track is supposed to have a duration of 3:53 but shows up in dBpoweramp with a length of 335:36:33. dBpoweramp also does show a hidden first track with a length of 62:08:16.
As far as I know there shouldn't be a hidden first track. Exact Audio Copy doesn't show the hidden first track and a normal length for the first track. The disc ripped perfectly with EAC, all tracks were ripped accurately.
I have never seen this before. I ripped hundreds of CD's with dBpoweramp including disc's with a hidden first track.
My question what's going wrong here? What's causing this ?
See below the screenshots for both dBpoweramp and EAC.

Re: Extreme large first track
This CD has Copy Protection, switch the ripping method to 'defective by design', after ripping that disc, set back to normal.

Re: Extreme large first track
The CD is from 1996 so I doubt it's copy protected. There's no mention of copy protection at all.
EAC ripped it perfectly without mention of a hidden first track and it does mention accurately ripped for all tracks with a confidence of 45 to 47. Cue tools is mentioning a confidence of 102/109.
I have eight other byrds cd's from the same series (1996-1997 remasters) and they didn't show any problems.

Re: Extreme large first track
Track 1 can't be ripped with dBpoweramp with all 3 ripping methods (secure, burst and defective by design).
The log does say:
Track 1: ERROR Ripping LBA 16777203 to 17515 (335:36:33) in 0:00. Filename: D:\01 - Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season).flac
The Log from EAC does say:
Track 1

Peak level 93.3 %

Re: Extreme large first track
Strange is that with dBpoweramp the ripping of track 1 starts at sector 16777203.
With EAC is starts at 0.
See below the TOC of the extracted cd from the EAC log:

1 | 0:00.00 | 3:53.40 | 0 | 17514

Re: Extreme large first track
Try enabling the Prevent Detection of Hidden First Track option.

Re: Extreme large first track
That doesn't work. Track 1 still appears with a length of 335:36:33
It's not a big deal as I have a good rip with EAC but I am just wondering why I can't get it ripped with dBpoweramp which is my preferred ripping software.
-
Re: Extreme large first track
For the record: The rip (with EAC) plays fine. No audible errors.

Re: Extreme large first track
Hmm, odd. What dBpoweramp platform/version are you running? Have you another optical drive you can try?
-
Re: Extreme large first track
I use version 16.6 in combination with Windows 10.
I don't have an other drive available. I have this drive for a couple of months and ripped already many cd's with it. My previous drive was a ASUS DRW-24D5MT but the percentage of cd's that i couldn't rip was too high. The Liteon drive I have now ripped most of the cd's that i couldn't rip with the ASUS drive. So far I am happy with this drive.

Re: Extreme large first track
dBpoweramp reads the TOC with a different ATAPI command to EAC (we ask for in LBA, eac asks for in minutes:seconds), I have seen a drive with buggy firmware give different tocs depending on which call is made, where obviously the same toc value should be returned.

Re: Extreme large first track
Thank you very much for your answer Spoon.
So the disc is fine but it's the drive's firmware that's messing up ?
It doesn't appear to be a big problem as I ripped over 100 cd's with this drive and it's the first time that this problem occurs.
For these kind of problems it's good to have both dBpoweramp and EAC.
