cd-paranoia command examples

cd-paranoia – 9.8 (Paranoia release III via libcdio) – an audio CD reading utility which includes extra data verification features

A few examples, protected from the shell:

Query only with exhaustive search for a drive and full reporting of autosense:

cd-paranoia -vsQ

Extract an entire disc, putting each track in a seperate file:

cd-paranoia -B

Extract from track 1, time 0:30.12 to 1:10.00:

cd-paranoia "1[:30.12]-1[1:10]"

Extract from the beginning of the disc up to track 3:

cd-paranoia -- "-3"

The “–” above is to distinguish “-3” from an option flag.
