Small but serious bug in EAC - and how to avoid it, German version only Options

[R.A.F.]

A few weeks ago I discovered a small but annoying bug in EAC. It appears, when there were "suspicious positions" at some tracks while grabbing. In earlier versions EAC always wrote then "There were errors" at the end of the logfile. But instead of doing this, it now always wrote "No errors occured". So it happened during my last several dozen ripps, that I grabbed 7 or 8 CD´s with errors - and didn´t notice it at first, as I took my focus only at the end-message of the logfiles. Important: The bug appears only in the german version of EAC, as there happened a mistake in the german translation-file of EAC. It was reported to André Wiethoff (the author of EAC) a few weeks ago, and meanwhile he uploaded a corrected german textfile (dated on 14/07). So, if you haven´t done it not yet, please download this one from his webpage. If you downloaded the main-program newly, you also have to download the fixed german textfile additionally, as the main program-package was not yet updated.
