Does cdparanoia have offset correction? If not, what are the odds that I'd be able to verify the rip after the fact with CUETools?
I have no idea of what offset is in CD rip but part of the man page talk about it
-t --toc-offset number
Use this option to force the entire disc LBA addressing to shift by the given
amount; the value is added to the beginning offsets in the TOC. This can be
used to shift track boundaries for the whole disc manually on sector granular-
ity. The next option does something similar...
-T --toc-bias
Some drives (usually random Toshibas) report the actual track beginning offset
values in the TOC, but then treat the beginning of track 1 index 1 as sector 0
for all read operations. This results in every track seeming to start too late
(losing a bit of the beginning and catching a bit of the next track). -T
accounts for this behavior. Note that this option will cause cdparanoia to
attempt to read sectors before or past the known user data area of the disc,
resulting in read errors at disc edges on most drives and possibly even hard
lockups on some buggy hardware.
-O --sample-offset number
Use this option to force the entire disc to shift sample position output by the
given amount; This can be used to shift track boundaries for the whole disc
manually on sample granularity. Note that this will cause cdparanoia to attempt
to read partial sectors before or past the known user data area of the disc,
probably causing read errors on most drives and possibly even hard lockups on
some buggy hardware.
The span argument may be a simple track number or an offset/span specification. The
syntax of an offset/span takes the rough form:
1[ww:xx:yy.zz]-2[aa:bb:cc.dd]
Here, 1 and 2 are track numbers; the numbers in brackets provide a finer grained off-
set within a particular track. [aa:bb:cc.dd] is in hours/minutes/seconds/sectors for-
mat. Zero fields need not be specified: [::20], [:20], [20], [20.], etc, would be
interpreted as twenty seconds, [10:] would be ten minutes, [.30] would be thirty sec-
tors (75 sectors per second).
When only a single offset is supplied, it is interpreted as a starting offset and rip-
ping will continue to the end of the track. If a single offset is preceeded or fol-
lowed by a hyphen, the implicit missing offset is taken to be the start or end of the
disc, respectively.
I've always simply use
cdparanoia -B
or something like that and all was ok.
