dBpoweramp CD Ripper & Cue Sheet Image Support

A quick heads up that the latest R14 (beta) now has the ability to detect gaps and indexes (as needed for Cue Sheet Image support), the two topics of interest:

http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=18981

Both of these are Beta and will go to final release in the fullness of time.

Good stuff. Spoon!

I'd be more than happy to pay you even again to get me the heck off of EAC. Seriously.

Your ripper is not annoying to set up and maintain. Thanks for your continued efforts.

I've tried creating a few CUEs & wav images, and the results in the CUE are pretty weird.
Does this need some special config? I'd like to check before sending bug reports...

I have discovered that some Plextor drives act funny with our detection routines (the plextors seem to have the q channel CRC incorrect **) I have a fix with the next beta update.

** the crc is correct, just the time reported within the q channel block is wrong, which is used to calc the CRC16, I would love to ask Plextor about it, but alas I think they no longer care for this area of the market.

Doesn't work with asian characters. This is how a cue sheet looks where correct japanese tags were retrieved from freedb:

My system is english, but Cue Tools can do it, for example.

Does the spec for CD-TEXT support Asian characters?  If not then I don't see how this is a legitimate problem unless Spoon wants to go down the road of supporting the use of CUE sheets beyond their original intention of providing additional information about what is stored in a disc's TOC and/or subcode.

EDIT: Noting spoon's response below, good to know.  That's one less issue on which to rant.

CD Text does support unicode, but I have never seen a CD with such...

Not sure if we understand each other, but nobody said that the tags were retrieved from CD-TEXT, I expressively said "freedb". So the discussion has to be how to write correct tags in cue-sheets in a unicode format (and then maybe they can be written BACK as CD-TEXT later).

I know there are localized versions of freedb, but they just shift the problem elsewhere, since the codepages used are not even UTF-8 but for example SHIFT-JIS.
