Ahh...so I shouldn't bother ripping these until I've got a better drive?:-( That's unfortunate. I don't think any of my drives have negative combined offsets.

Topic: First PSX disc with audio - a question (6 replies, posted in General discussion)
Hey all,
I'm about done with my first PSX rip that contains audio tracks (exciting! I think), and I want to make sure I'm doing it right. I set up EAC as instructed, putting the combined offset in the "read offset" box. Ripped the tracks with test+copy using the required settings.
Here's the deal: I don't think my drive likes "overread into lead-in and lead-out." With that option ticked, I always get a "sync error" on the last track. Now, despite the sync error, my tests and copies match CRCs, so it doesn't appear that anything nefarious is going on. Without "overread" enabled, I get no error, but receive a different set of matching CRCs.
I assume, based on the guide, that the redump submission should use the rip with the error and with the option enabled, correct?
Also, are there any naming conventions with regard to the files? Currently, they're all "01 - Unknown Title" and whatnot.
Thanks for the help. It's astonishing how much more challenging it has been to rip a game with audio tracks!
