Cd ripping
« on: September 11, 2010, 09:56:56 AM »
trust me i do own the cd's
i have a stack of cd music  (from the 80's onward )
i need a small prog to rip and tag ( name the tracks )
usually use Phoobar but sometimes it locks up on certain cd's .
i have Cyberlink power2go installed for Blue ray discs which will rip to wav format only .the wma format crashes .

if i had linux installed i'd use sound juicer but i havent got around to dual booting again yet.

i intend to carboot the cd's and use the pc / media player for music.
any help would be greatly appreciated  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I used to use CDex, which would check the CDDB thingy for track names.
http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/

I tried using Exact Audio Copy, because the magazine I got it off said it was really good and gave the best quality.  I couldn't get it to work though, not on my P75.  It probably works better now:  http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/

Windows Media Player has a built in encoder, I don't know if it's any good though.

iTunes.
i have used and found ok ,as most of my music ends up on my ipod . ;D
but i haven't quite found a easy way to put the ripped music onto my saving HDD without going into the itunes library in "my music" and physically cut / copy to move it.

chekovsulu  / Nobby  will try the CDex.

If your vinyl is any good, sign up to Discogs.com as it is a breeze to sell stuff through that.  I only still buy stuff though as I couldn't part with any just yet - perhaps when I'm 60?

I don't know how those primitive PCs work, but on a mac you hold down "option" ("alt", maybe?) whilst launching iTunes, and it allows you to select your library and/ or create a new one wherever you want. If you want to create your library on an external HDD then this will work a treat.
right I'll look into it
