Yes, I've set up the read offsets using the AccurateRip plugin and the write offsets from the instructions at "The Coaster Factory".The "read/copy" CRCs are somewhat of a misnomer. They are actually both "read" CRCs - they just compare the CRC of the test read with the second read (the one used in the actual rip). So they should match even though there may be no read offset compensation at all. What the read offsets buy you is to have the CRCs match across multiple drives, even with "No use of null samples for CRC calculation" turned off. Plus of course getting the amount of silence at the beginning and end of each track exactly correct. The CRCs will usually match across drives with the "No use of..." option on, since the only difference across drives (in the absence of errors) should be in the number of null samples at the beginning and end of each track.
