[SLE] exact audio copy in linux

[Gabor Istvan]

Dear list members:

Does anyone know of a program for linux that can be used to=20
make an exact copy of an audio CD? Something that works=20
similarly to windows exactaudiocopy (EAC).
I tried to use cdparanoia - and it makes perfect rips -, but I=20
don't know what tool I can use to write the wav out to a CD=20
since I don't have a cue file with the index positions.

TIA,
IG

Thanks, but I meant something SIMILAR to EAC in windows.
I think kb3 uses cdrecord or cdrdao for ripping CDs and they=20
don't read the audio tracks as securely as cdparanoia or EAC.
Furthermore you can not set the reading offset with them that=20
also may be necessary for making exact copies.

k3b does use libcdparanoia when compiled on a system with cdparanoia
installed. See the "Optionally" section here:

This is true. However, you might not need that when you select the "clone
copy" mode in the burning dialog.

-------------

I've used k3b to make several audio cd copies with great success. The
copies even turn out to be quite playable on cd devices not designed to
use cdr discs. That's how close to the original they turn out. I have
also recently made several audio cds from mp3 and ogg files. Again k3b
worked flawlessly and created especially nice audio cds for both my
player (reads mp3, cdr, cdrw, etc) and the wife's player, standard car
cd player factory installed.

If you are in love with EAC, stick with EAC, unless you are trying to
rid yourself of Windows since moving to Linux.

Lee

I tried to use cdparanoia - and it makes perfect rips -, but I
don't know what tool I can use to write the wav out to a CD
since I don't have a cue file with the index positions.

Xcdroast maybe what you are after.

I should have been more specific, xcdroast will do direct copies of music cds,
I have used it in the past. It is very easy to use, especially if you have
two cd drives, one a reader the other a writer.

If you are using 9.3 it should be on the SuSE DVD otherwise you can download
it from SuSE.

Did you try Copy CD in K3b?

I don't think "an exact copy" has any meaning for an audio
disk, audio data is not that kind of.

onbe can failrly well adjust the kind of ripping with
cdparanoia, cdda2wav cdrdao.

many of then come from the cdrecord team and on that
developper site one can find explanations of what is an
audio disk and the rest.

however, if you mean copying against the news protection
shemes, I don't think it's the right place

As in what, Like Sony's last attempt? The one in which you use a marker
to defeat the copy protection?
Please, you don't need Linux for that.

I don't know, I don't buy cd's :-). I was answering a
question...

But it works. i did it with my Beethoven collection for use in the car
CD.
