About Nova Physics Group’s “Build 7” Extractor
Build 7 now enables the User to:
• Let The Memory Player automatically fill in all CD and track information
through its local CDDB Library, if that feature has been purchased.
• Access CDDB remotely through an internet connection. This will auto-update
with the latest CD information.
• View technical information about the previous extraction under ‘Adjustments’,
and ‘Extraction Details’.
• Compare an old extraction to a new extraction, under ‘Verification’. Choose
‘Verify Archived Bit Counts’ and browse for the old extraction in field #1, and
the newer extraction in field #2. Click ‘Initiate’ and it will display any bits
dropped from either extraction. Click ‘Terminate’ to exit the process.
About Closing the Extractor and Player
Since the Extractor and Player can both be operating at the same time, to exit either
one, close the Extractor or the Player by touching the X in its upper right corner, or
Exit in its upper left corner. Closing unused panels will speed up the extraction.
About the “Extract to Memory” Process
Once the extraction process has begun, the percentage of extraction meter and the
jitter meter will be displayed.
The elapsed and remaining time, as well as the percentage of extraction for each
track, will be displayed. Below the percentage of extraction meter you will see the
jitter meter. The jitter meter graphically displays jitter errors. The meter bar
indicates if jitter errors have occurred, been corrected, or if it was not able to correct
the jitter through re-reading.
(Jitter errors are often caused by dirt, dust or vibration. Most jitter that is detected
can be eliminated, and the improvement will be indicated on the meter.)
About the “Extract to Memory” Panel
When the Extract to Memory process is opened, the panel displays:
• Track name and number, CD Title and Artist; (The Memory Player comes
loaded with a local CDDB Library )
• Starting and ending times for the track on the CD;
• The size of the track in megabytes;
• A summary of the extraction Status.
If OK appears in the Summary, all jitter errors were correctable through re-reading.
If jitter was not correctable, the number of jitter errors would be displayed (example:
X15 would be 15 uncorrectable jitter errors). An “A” displayed next to the track
indicates that the track was aborted before extraction was finished.
