With "secure" ripping on, MC never seems to give up the ghost on getting past a defective track. I'd appreciate a fix where the program acts sensibly and only attempts so many reads of a defective sector before moving on. Am using 22.0.15.

It does that now.

That's what I thought (that ripping cuts off automatically), but it hangs something fierce on my computer.
-
When I have bad tracks that MC cannot handle I try dBpoweramp. It tries repeatedly and after a while, sometimes a long while, it will complete the rip with errors.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll check it out. (Fact is, if MC can't rip it, it's very likely not to be worth the bother.)

We don't have too many ripping problems reported. It's odd that it seems to hang for you, but I would guess that either it would finish eventually, or that something is preventing it from finishing.

Actually, the problem may be in a very small section of the track. I have had dBoweramp rip a damaged CD and report maybe 100 errors and, when listening to that problem track, have not been able to hear any problems. 100 errors is minor compared to 44,100 per second. In one case I let dBpoweramp run overnight and it eventually ripped the disc with a small number of errors. But it did the job. Worth a try if you have dBpoweramp.
