I'm a big fan of Musicbee and I rip loads of CDs to FLAC with it. I get wildly different ripping speeds though and I wondered if anyone knows what causes it.
I understand the difference between quick ripping, ripping with verification, etc., but I'm talking about variations in ripping speed when using the same settings. I use the middle option, secure rip with error correction, and usually it rips at about 3X or 4X normal speed. Sometimes it rips a lot faster for no apparent reason.
For example yesterday I was ripping a bunch of CDs and they were flying along at anything up to 53X normal speed with no change in the settings. I stopped halfway through a collection of Rachmaninov's complete piano works and started agin today with the same box set and it's only ripping at 3X again with the exact same disks, which all look pristine.
What can I do to make Musicbee rip at full speed every time?
