Features:

* Usage of the Windows 95 and Windows NT ASPI Interface, so both SCSI and ATAPI CD-ROM drives are supported
* Hidden sector synchronization (jitter correction)
* Read error and complete lost of sync detection and correction, as far as possible
* Output of time positions of all non exact corrections
* Usage of the Windows Audio Compression Manager (ACM Codecs) for direct compression e.g. to MP3 waves
* Program is Cardware, so feel free to copy
Known bugs:
* On some computers the whole system hangs after a short period of time. I didn't find the solution to this problem yet, because it never happened on my computer. It is possible that any cd-player causes these problems. So try to stop any play in progress before starting EAC.
* Some CD-ROM drives or computer configurations does not return the correct values on drive detection, so no drives could be selected even if a drive is installed. On some computer it will work nevertheless. If a CD is inserted it will show up all tracks correctly.
* On some CD-ROM drives occur extreme jitter errors so the extraction will slow down to a non acceptable value (e.g. Mitsumi FX240)
* Sometimes the program will not copy any tracks and finish immediately. Try to restart the copy more often, it will help on some computers.
The readme (EAC.TXT) includes the following: "This is a only a beta version from the final program that will be distributed later in this year, at least I hope so."
