Yay! Another AccurateRip / CUETools log question

Just bought a used Mother Love Bone collection CD (EAN/UPC: 0 20831 - 4477 - 2 55) from a guy in USA and securely ripped it in EAC (no errors) and this is what AccurateRip / CUETools tells me:

I can't remember whether I've seen an explanation of this before or not.. and couldn't find anything useful by searching.

Am I the first one (or second) who has actually ripped this CD properly? This CD doesn't look like a fake CD. I can't believe that I'm the only owner of a different pressing CD who has AccurateRip:ped this. Or what is this? Thanks.

EDIT: Forgot to include the EAC log:

Believe it.

Like me, did you say that you were banned from submitting to the database?

EDIT2: Try checking again with CUETools but this time configure it with an offset of -5880 (well I think -5879, but whatever).

Yay! Another AccurateRip / CUETools log question

Thanks for the fast reply and sorry for the late answer, got swamped with all kinds of stuff suddenly.

Yes, I'm banned from submitting to AR DB (and I still don't know why), why do you ask? Did you mean that others might be banned too and that could be why I don't see any results? I thought about it while I was posting, I just didn't feel like including every exclusion that might affect the situation.

Tried to verify with both -5880 and -5879 offsets applied, still no matches. I'm not worried about that I've a bad rip, I was just curious why CUETools shows logs this way.

I ripped the bonus CD that came with the album and here's the results for that:

This time CT found the other offset that the EAC log hints at.

Maybe I'll never understand (unless somebody comes up with a super easy explanation.. I've never been very good at understanding this offset-stuff) why CT shows "(000/126) No match" and such logs to users with no other offsets listed, while EAC seems to sniff other pressings. It's just confusing to me.

I'm pretty certain that the AR dll simply provides the first hash entry and corresponding confidence to EAC when there is no match, which in this new case happens to have a confidence of 73.

CT presents any corresponding hashes from what is in the AR record after checking all the offsets offset over a +/-5-frame range limited to a maximum number of unique pressings presented which is arbitrarily chosen by the program.  If it cannot find any matches then it won't present any.  The number 126 is the total number of all the submissions in the record for that given track.

Your banishment just prevents you from submitting, you can download a record to be used to make a comparison against your data just like anyone else.  My inquiry into your status was just to point out that you won't be able to contribute a pressing that currently doesn't exist in the database or may exist as a single submission in limbo awaiting a match.

Again I see no reason why every pressing of every disc should exist in the database.  I have a few albums from seemingly popular bands (more popular than Mother Love Bone, to be certain) from pressings which had no publicly available AR data at the time I ripped them.  I am not sure if they can be verified with CT; I haven't tried and can't really remember what they all were.

Feel free to work with me via PM if you want me to help you figure out exactly how your disc differs from what has been successfully submitted to the database.

Yes of course, I had forgotten this thing. Thanks for reminding.

Maybe it's just me but if it can't find matches at all from any "pressings" it looks, then why doesn't it show "disk not present in database" then? Why "000/126" or similar? That's confusing me. Maybe it's just how CT is designed. Is there any benefit for the user to see "000/xxx no matches" info (no other offsets)? If there is, then it of course make sense to show it to the user. If not, isn't this somewhat similar like the "as in pressing(s) #X" case which was removed eventually?

Ok. Was known.. and I even remembered these.

Of course. I just imagined  my copy to be in the DB; I thought that there wouldn't be so many different pressings made in USA, and I thought that all of those would be in the DB for this band/album.

Remember they are any pressings within a ~10 frame range.  It could easily be that it might match one or more pressings outside of that range.  Personally I would prefer to know that this might be the case rather than be told there are none.  I see no reason why any pressings in the publicly available database would be removed simply because CT can't match them against your specific pressing (ignoring the fact that AR has no dependency on CT whatsoever).  If a pressing was removed for being in limbo for too long (a completely hypothetical case; I haven't seen Spoon indicate this as a reason for removing data), it would not be included in the CT count anyway because they aren't in the publicly available record.

That's because the Disc ID for Accuraterip is calculated based on the disc structure, not the data it contains. See here. So the benefit to the user is that you can at least see that there are discs in the database that have exactly the same structure of tracks as your disc, and then can try to experiment with different offsets just as Greynol suggested. On the other hand, if you get a "disc not present", you know that even the structure of your disc is unique.

Do I interpret it correctly, that between November and today, there has been a new submission for this disc, with different data than the previous one, and therefore both of them have been moved to "limbo"? But the disc ID itself stays in the database, so we get this weird 0/0 result?

@Goratrix:
Yep, I suspect that is exactly the reason why you are seeing what you are seeing.  Submit your disc (assuming that the previous submission wasn't yours) and it will reappear with a confidence of 2 once the database is updated.

@Akkurat:
You're entirely welcome!
