Talking of drive offsets, I have got a guy with a PlexWriter 12/10/32A who has a verifiable offset of -481 samples (-1924 bytes). Although I am still investigating it (perfectionist  )

Update:

Now results are coming back one hiccup was found - that is one disc entered the database ripped with the wrong offset, I am still unsure why it happened, I suspect a CD drive threw a wobbler and was 1/4 of a CD sector out (it had ripped 100's correctly). Anyhow, such an entry could polute the database if others found their offsets of this disc. So the rules of the system have been changed to only recognise discs for offset detection with a Confidence of two or more. What this means is, the database will take longer to populate, so I am going to help it out a little.

Anyone who has more than 100 discs to add to accuraterip, I am willing to send out a CD (I have plenty of classical CDs I don't want), email me dbpoweramp@dbpoweramp.com

what about if we have a drive with very well-known offsets?  Like the Liteon 24102B 24x burner with a +12 read offset in EAC?  Are we able to just manually set the offset in dbpoweramp and start populating the database?  Or will it only populate from drives it calibrates itself?

Part of the test is to make sure the correct offset is found, that is half the battle of this system, so the more tests of that the better. If you have more than 100 discs I will send a CD on.
