frank what you suggest is exactly what i tried and what is intermittently not working. before i installed the most recent firmware upgrade, this worked just fine. now it craps out on me more often then not partway through the process.

David,

The ptr1 will not rip to mp3.  You should be able to use the backup
process to convert a commercially produced music CD to a daisy format CD
if you wish but of course the resulting mp3 files will be stored in the
daisy book format which you cannot directly play on a mp3 player.

Subject: converting a music cd to an mp3 file on the PTR

eager for advice from anyone.
I have been trying without success to convert a store-bought music cd to
an
MP3 version; using the Ptr. I used to be able to do this with no problem
before I installed the new firmware some months ago. Now; when I put in
the
music cd; and give the proper back up command; it sometimes does it just
fine. other times; it bails out partway through; and gives the message
"failed".; there is nothing wrong with the music cd. in fact the ones
tha
that had problems with this i managed with no problem to "rip" to mp3 on
my
computer using windows media player.; these are not burned cd's they are
the
originals.; any suggestions?; by the way; i also tried doing this using
the
ptr software on my computer. i found the menu and command structure
hopelessly confusing and gave up trying to give the commands to get it
to
work. it may have the capability to do it, but it is too
counter-intuitive
for me to figure out the commands.
