Is there some documentation about that (except source)? nope, but apart from indentation problems the code is fairly modular and the atapi stuff is all confined in the new files cdd_atapisomething.[ch] > I'd also like to know on which platforms it works (probably > only on fairly recent 3.0-current, right?). If possible, the the port is for 3.0 and not cam-ified.

The problem is, ATAPI drives are not as good as SCSI ones, especially 2-3yrs old models, even brand name ones e.g. Sony. Plus, in many cases people do not have the option to upgrade, e.g. in the case of laptops. > Apart from that, I'm not able to develop, test and maintain > code to perform JC without even having a CD-ROM drive that > requires it. Sorry for that. no problem, it was just a suggestion. jitter correction is the main (and possibly only) reason i prefer cdd over all other audio grabbing utilities :( cheers luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO .
