PerfectRip gives you control over ripping speed and lets you increase it by supressing subs when you don’t need them. PerfectRip is able to tweak all copyright flags, including SCMS, so you can have the flag you want on the replica. PerfectRip lets you make full and proper use of the C2 pointer feature (“secure mode”) of your drive, giving you a report locating the exact offset of the error so you can mute, hold or average (linear interpolation) at post-processing stage. PerfectRip has a complete and open offset correction engine, it corrects main channel read and write, subchannel manual and auto and C2 report.

Thanks to specific error messages, test results permit greater differentiation. For example, ScanDisc now also detects C1/C2 and PI/PO errors and organizes the results by track (audio CD), chapter (video DVD) or file (data disk), making it significantly easier to locate defective data. Disk content data available under DiscInfo was also expanded to include information on physical formats and the number of layers or sessions. With a click of the mouse, the results can be copied to the clipboard as a text or as HTML.

You can publish your Nero CD-DVD Speed test results online at BitBurners.com MediaBase (no registration needed), study the test results made by others in the comprehensive database.

No more CD/DVD drive noise. DAEMON Tools enabling you to use your CD/DVD images as if they were already burned to CD/DVD. With DAEMON Tools Pro you would receive up to 32 virtual drives that behave just like the “real” physical CD/DVD drives.
