I am well aware that it doesn't perform jitter correction at all. There are several reasons for that: - I don't have access to any CD-ROM drive that requires jitter correction. - My own CD-ROM drive doesn't work at all with jitter correction (for example, using the CDDA under DOS, I have to turn jitter correction off to get it working correctly). - It is my understanding that all newer CD-ROM drives do not require jitter correction. This is especially true for SCSI drives (tosha does not support IDE drives). Because of those reasons, I didn't take the trouble to implement jitter correction.
