CCCD - on rainbow - does it work? [how to rip CCCD]

[ChineseWarrior]

muwhahahahaha soo true

[kazuni]

there is another alternative program - actually there are 4 - that i can list here:

EAC (exact audio copy) u can get it from www.exactaudiocopy.de (u need the LAME dos encoder for it to encode in mp3 in a very good quality!)

WINDAC /w LAME/bladeenc (www.windac.de)

Audiograbber (discontinued, but there are Wa**z out there)

Windows Media Player works fine for me! (Version 8 and 9)

CDEX rips fine too

Winamp plugins also can do that (forgot which but it dumps it as an mp3/wav, depends on what u want)

hm what else....

i guess those are the ones that i know hope that helps

I recommend EAC the most (best quality) a little but hard to use at the beginning if you are new to it, but it gives u the best rips (well to me...) using the r3mix preset it provides /w LAME

wooooo weeeeeeee thanks kazuni but looks hard -_-

that sounds really dangerous to be doing that to a 27 dollar cd! what if I mess up? does it ruin the entire cd? because I'd love to have my own personal mp3s so that I can just turn on the computer and not have to find cds all the time.

yea therez definitely a risk...maybe u can cut out the right shape out of a cardboard or something and trace along using that ^_^

Oops, I'm bringing this topic back up again. . .

The black marker-thing DOESN'T WORK! I tried it with my Voyage single and it did nothing to prevent the CCCD from working, but the CD still plays perfectly. What I did was take a black Sharpie and make a thin line around the ouside rim of the back of the CD. Somewhere I read that that was where the CCCD was, but it's probably near the same rim with the actual music. Oh well, the Voyage CD still looks great since the line is only small and it still works in my CD players.

Yeah, don't do the black marker thing. Someone here at the forum ruined a cd doing that. It's just not a smart idea. If your computer won't rip the tracks, download them from here or someone who has them.

Also, I know a place where you can get copies of Ayu's cds really cheap if you want to rip the tracks from that and have a copy for your car. AIM me if anyone is interested.

DON'T let Avex's program loaded up in your PC.
That's the most important thing.
Hold Shift while the disk gets loaded until the LED stop blinking for a while, then use your favourite ripping software.

Hi everybody,
I read all your posts about rip Avex CCCD tracks but I can't.
I tried all soft you talked but nothing.

On my CD, there are 12 audio tracks but when I put the disc in my drive, I see 13 data tracks . No soft can read and extract data tracks in WAV file.. and copy of the CD is impossible .
So what is the problem ? from my drive or maybe it's a new CCCD protection ?
Album name is Cyber Trance 6 .

Thanks. I hope you could help me.

What about analog ripping? I haven't tried this myself, but here is a link about how to do it:

[depend_ayu]

You can use this programe "IsoBuster" to rip it

[EdenZone]

CDex too..... i forgot the site to dl it. but you can search for it

[kheops]

I ripped the single Free & Easy with EAC, becaus no other prog worked for me. it's alittle bit hard a the beginning, bu it works 100%!

i try to find the site where they explain how to use EAC.

[banchan]

Thanks . I'm waiting for your answer....

[kheops]

ok i found another tutorial, it's a little bit "heavy" but very good.
http://www.ping.be/satcp/tutorials.htm

as soon as i am at home i'll post the other link with the short and easy tutorial...

[EdenZone]

hmm. thanks.. everyone shouldn't have problems now...

[kheops]

i ripped Ayu Trance 2 20 mins ago, everything ok with EAC. Ayu Trance 2 is CCCD protected.


mini tutorial by me:

1. Insert Audio CD and click on: Action - Detect TOC Manually

2. Select the tracks you want to rip and click on: Action - Copy Selected Tracks - Uncompressed or Compressed ( click on compresed if you have installed LAME codec)

(3) if you have selected "uncompressed" you have to compress the *.wav in mp3 with any mp3 compressing prog.

that's all. hope this could help.

From what I've seen, CCCD protection is just based on an unwritten area on the disk before the data track. A few drives don't like this and don't report the list of tracks properly, but if you're not in that case you can extract the tracks without any trouble...
You can make a non-cccd version of the disc by rewriting a cd from those ripped tracks

[paper_doll]

CCCD is pointless... someway somehow it still ends up on KaZaA within days of the CD release...

[a_yu_volution]

i use clonecd...and it werks great....iso buster too...
but when i try some programs it took forever...that is because it was prevented to rip the last track or data at the end of the cd space...
