Re: How: Ripping Prodisc, AEI music CD from retail stores

No, actually something's up. I have the following CD/DVD media drives in my computer:
#1. Pioneer DVR-106D
#2. HP CD-Writer+ 7200 (I have this old drive for nostalgia reasons)
Get this -
The ORIGINAL rip that I did with the Pioneer last week was unreadable. I could not read the "music" file WITH PSMPlayer OR the AEI player.(When I wrote the bin/cue to CD).
I ripped the "music" file off with the Pioneer TODAY (Dec 9th) and the music DID NOT PLAY with PSM player. (I did it precisely as shown on your screenshots)
I then ripped the same file from the same disc with the HP 7200 and it *DID* play.
I then swapped the disc BACK to the Pioneer drive and ripped the same file from the same disc and this time it DID work. So I think I may have a bad Pioneer drive. No matter, 'cos I'm fixing to get a Dual-Layer DVD-Writer anyway. Either way - I've now been able to rip "music" and decode to 44.1KHz .WAV and all's well. Now all I wanna do is suckcessfully rip the .BIN / .CUE and be able to COPY these CD's and have them play also in my AEI player... Gonna experiment more on that later. But for now, I'm here rawkin' to my AEI CD's on my computer. One thing I CANNOT manage to do though is get the .BIN / .CUE to load with Alcohol as the virtual drive. I'd like to be able to play "music" directly off the CD's with PSMPlayer without having to rip. Any suggestions?
MANY THANX to Truman and the others in this thread...
