Yep...good ole CDEX is hard to beat1! I used to like WMP, but when that program went to 11, it seemed to be not as "straight-forward" at least that's how I found it to be! Tom Kaufman

It seems difficult to select all the tracks and give them their own filenames. I suppose that it would be quicker and easier to use another programme like some listed in the thread. I still use CD-ex and it works well. -----Original Message----- From: all-audio@groups.io <all-audio@groups.io> On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: January 21, 2019 3:51 PM To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: Re: [all-audio] How to rip CDs with VLC Yes, and that's the route I took.

I've tried intuition and Google, but I'm getting nowhere. I know to start with control-r and to select disc with alt-d. I know that VLC recognizes the CD I have in that drive. However, I can't get any results. One time I accidentally recorded two tracks with VLC, but even though they were somehow saved as .WAV files and VLC is my default .WAV app, there's no sound. By contrast, when I just play the CD with VLC, the sound is fine. Although I somehow got two.WAV files using VLC, a feat I've never repeated, the only file type options I find as I go through the rip dialog are ones I don't recognize. I'll mention that I have Windows Media player set to rip CDs, but I close that program when I want VLC to do the job. Could it be interfering anyway? I'm not looking for another ripping program. WMP is okay, but the sound quality of .WMA files is less than I want. Since VLC plays CDs with such clarity, I'm hoping that using it for ripping will bring better results. Thanks for any instructions or tips. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
