Re: [gentoo-user] MultiThreaded music rippers (was: iTunes on linux?)

2003-10-21 Thread Lotas Smartman
now theres a question. is there any app that i can use to rip 2 cds at 
once? i have 2 CD rom drives and 2 CPUs and enough memory (1gb) so i think 
its posible, but i dont know any apps that could do this. i tunes, 
although it seem both cds, wouldent rip both at once. see i have about 40 
albums i just ripped with itunes as aac3 files and ill be loosing them 
when i install linux tonight or tomorrow night. so rpping 2 cds at the 
same time would make me happier and the job faster.
Thanks.

 if you want cd ripping and you're on a kde platform, k3b is pretty damn
 cool.  
 if you're on a gnome platform, nothing beats grip.

 Well you could use two instances of grip, and set the cdrom device in
 the 
 second one tho the second cdrom device.

Another ripper you may want to check out is cdparanoia.  It'll eat
up your CPU pretty good, but if your CDs aren't in pristine condition,
it'll help make sure errors aren't transferred to your magnetic copy.  I
had a CD that skipped pretty badly because it had so many scratches.
cdparanoia actually fixed a lot of the disc's problems (on the copied
version of the music, obviously).  At the same time, however, it took a
LONG time to copy that CD.

Hope that helps,
Matt
