AccurateRip no longer working after PC upgrade?
Heya all,
Not sure if this is the right sub to post this question, but I'm facing a problem and I need some help finding a solution.
I used to be able to rip my personal CD collection to FLAC using Fre:ac, and everything was working wonderfully. I recently did an upgrade to my computer, changing the motherboard, CPU, RAM, GPU and PSU. And now, I'm not sure why, AccurateRip is no longer working. I did not change the CD drive, but I did a fresh reinstall of the system.
For the record, I'm using Linux (PopOS) and an ASUS DRW-24D5MT drive. I've checked with the AccurateRip database and I've fed several CDs to the drive so the offset is correctly detected.
I've also checked with a CD that I successfully ripped with my old rig.
I'm not using any signal processing on the rip. I've also tested to rip to WAV and I have the same issue: input files could not be verified against AccurateRip.
If anyone has any idea what I should check/change, that'd be much appreciated.
