It's been a long time since I used ripperX, as I've settled on Grip as a better front end. Both are just FE's for cdparanoia and the mp3 encoder of your choice (ought'a be, notlame-3.90-0.20011127.1mdk , http://lis.snv.jussieu.fr/~rousse/linux/plf/ , IMO ) Then I believe it's better to rip to wav's (I use xmms' diskwriter plugin) and use this utility, normalize-0.6.1-1mdk, to equalize the volumes of many wav's's and also fix 'bad pages' many contain. Then encode to mp3's. Best chance of ending up with 'CD quality' mp3's. -- ____Tom Brinkman _________________ South Texas, USA_____ To a Californian, a person must prove himself criminally insane before he is allowed to drive a taxi in New York.
