CD-ROM: This selection box shows the available CD-ROMs, select the CD-ROM from which you want to extract the CD-ROM tracks.

Read Sector: Some drive can't read more than 26 sectors at once, so if you get silent WAV files, make sure that this value is less than 27. If your drive can read more than 27 sectors at once, you can try to increase the value to about 400 which can speed up the ripping process considerably.

Number of Retries: When un-recoverable jitter errors occur, ImTOO CD Ripper will retry for the number of times you specify. A large number of retries might slow down the ripping process considerably.

Read Overlap:
To avoid mis-alignment of track data, this number should be large enough so there will be enough overlap to compensate for mis-positioning of the laser. If you hear strange noises in your MP3 or WAV file, try to increase the read overlap number.
Note: The read overlap value should always be less than the Read Sector value.

Block Compare: This value doesní»t exceed 0.5 x Read Overlap value.

Start/End Offset: With the start and end offset you can tweak the actual start and end position.

CD Speed: This is reading speed of the CD-ROM, the default value "0" means using the default recording speed.

Spin up time: Some drives give small artifacts in the first couple of seconds of the WAV file; this is likely because the CD-ROM has not yet spun up completely. In order to avoid these artifacts, you can increase the spin-up time value (value is in seconds).

CD-ROM Drive Type: Select the CD-ROM brand you have, based in this information CD audio data is read differently.If you don't get any audio data into the WAV or MP3 file, you might want to change this setting to your specific brand of CD-ROM.

Ripping Method:
Standard - the standard jitter correction algorithm.
Paranoia Overlap Only - Basically the same as the Standard Ripping Method, except that it uses the cdparanoia library.
Paranoia No Verify - Uses the full cdparanoia ripping method, except that the verification option is disabled.
Paranoia No Scratch Repair - Neither look for scratches nor perform scratch-tolerant synchronization during verification.
Paranoia Full - All the available cdparanoia options are enabled.

Swap Left Right Channels: With certain types of CD-ROMs, the left and right channels are reversed. With this option enabled, you can correct it.

Eject CD when ripping has been completed: If checked, the CD will be ejected when the ripping is finished.

Select All CD Tracks: If checked, all the CD tracks will be selected when a new CD-ROM is inserted.

Use Native NT SCSI library: If checked, ImTOO CD Ripper will use the Native Windows NT SCSI library, instead of the ASPI library.
Note: You just can use this library in Win NT/2000.
