Default Audio CD Health Check

If the source code had been included as promised, it could probably have
been compiled to run Under Windows, but there's no sign of it on the
site that I can find, so I can't try it.


A link to the software is on the AudioMisc site's software page.

I produced the 'examples' page first to illustrate what the process can
show. Needed to refer to that in the 'Help' in the program. So at that
point the program wasn't available.

....And I did that today. You can find the !CD_HealthCheck program via
http://www.audiomisc.co.uk/software/index.html with source code included in
the zip. Look in the RO-only section for now.

When I put up the program I also added a link to the software page from the
examples page. (I also added another example of the kind of effect the
program can show up.)

However that version uses RISC OS swi calls to access the optical drive and
read the frames of audio data. It also uses a Norcroft/Acorn 'C' which
isn't the same as GCC's. So it would need changing to compile for Windows.

I need to work out how to use libcdio, then I can make a Linux version
available - again with sources. I think libcdio is part of GCC so that
source code should also work if recompiled for Windows. But I don't use
Windows so would have to leave that to someone else.
