Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)]
Well here's the thing: I know very little about how to navigate this WMP library! I thought there was an easy way to delete something (I eventually got there) but I couldn't go back and repeat or retrace my steps! I kind of like ripping with WMP for it's ability to title the tracks right out of the box (CDEX doesn't do this) as I understand it, you have to set it up to do it!

Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)
I don't know if this is related to the Tom problem, but: I have an early CD player--probably from the early 80's when they started making cd's. It will only play up through the 17th track on a cd, no matter how many tracks there are on it. I think it's because the hardware is limited. I don't think they ever expected that cd's would hold more than a vinyl album.

Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)]
The problem is that I very seldom boot my Windows PC anymore, but going from memory, I think you should be able to click on the library view and then view by artist or album to look for those stray tracks. Note that you can also use other media players like Winamp or FooBar to look through your library, if those interfaces are easier to use. Even Windows Explorer should do the trick. I need to do some ripping on my Windows PC anyway, so I'll take a look and see if I can offer up any better tips than that.

Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)
I used to use CDEX, but at the time, did not know (and still not sure I know) how to make it give the titles of the tracks! This is why I have some older things that I ripped yearsago that say audio track 1, audio track 2 and so on! Last night, I ripped this particular CD in WMP (things usually work out fine) but when I went to the music folder (My Music) and found the folder where it had been ripped, I discovered that track 10 was missing; so were a couple other tracks that I know are on that CD! So I deleted it and went into the library (I'll never be able to tell you how I accomplished it) but I did it; anyhow I ripped it again and got the same result!

RE: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)]
Tom, For locating tracks in WMP, a tip I got from David Biales' manual is to switch between the library (on the one hand) and all the other options (on the other) with control-tab. Another way of saying this is if you find yourself overwhelmed by all the tab sequencing, as I do, just press control-tab and you should be at the start of the library. Keep tabbing from there perhaps three times, and a list should appear. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 2:00 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)] Well here's the thing: I know very little about how to navigate this WMP library!

So bookmark the below Url. At the below page find the heading Euro 2012 and right below it is the listen link. CET or Central euro time is 9hrs ahead of pacific time in the US, 6 hrs ahead of eastern time in the US and as stated below, 1hr ahead of UK time. All matches are either at 18.00 CET or 20.45 CET.

In my case, I also use Windows Media only to rip music; I then go to My Documents; then My Music; that's where my stuff usually will go if I've ripped music to my computer. Once I find it, I then move it to wherever I want it; typically to my external drive. But I still don't know why that CD I ripped last night doesn't have all the tracks!

Update Concerning My Earlier Post Of lLast Night
Hello again list: I thought I had stumbled upon to something (regarding my problem of not ripping all from a CD) in WMP, I found something called Primary List it has all the songs listed on the CD I wanted to rip (why I can even play them) but the question still remains: why won't my computer (or Windows Media) or whatever, rip that track along with a couple of other tracks from the CD to my hard drive? I don't understand! What am I missing here? Tom Kaufman To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

RE: Listen to live radio commentary of Euro 2012 without any needforproxy servers or VPN
I tried the link. It was very strange. When I came below the Euro 2012 it said live but gave England V France! I knew this was wrong but I clicked on the link and the next page changed to Sweden V Germany! I expected to hear audio but none! I have some vision and use Supernova and not Jaws. Then over to the top right of that active screen was a link which said something like unable to hear sound. I clicked on that and hay presto I got sound. I am not really in to football but as my 2 nephews are off to Poland in the morning for the Ireland match tomorrow night I thought I might tune in tomorrow evening. Think if you have not got the result of the Germany match the site allows for you to listen for up to 3 hours but sorry if I have that wrong.

Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)]
Hi Tom and all. Not sure what to tell you. I had a cd that i ripped that had 17 tracks out of 20. I found the 3 tracks in a different folder called unknown. I organize my ripping method by artists directory, then album directory. I have found a few stray tracks in other places in these folders. WMP also moved things around when i had the option to find missing information. For example, I had a song that was on a compilation. WMP took the song and made a new directory and put that one track in there. When I saw the directory of the album name, and I knew I didn't own that album. Sure enough when I went to see what was inside the directory it was my missing track sitting there by itself with a totally different album name in the tag. So my advice, not the greatest, is too look around your music directory that all your wmp stuff goes in to. If it's a big mess try sorting your files by last date modified. This will tel lyou what folders have had changes made to them in the most recent to the oldest. Again not sure if i'm helping here or just making you pull out your hair. good luck bb - Original Message - From: Tom Kaufman tomca...@comcast.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 1:04 PM Subject: Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)] In my case, I also use Windows Media only to rip music; I then go to My Documents; then My Music; that's where my stuff usually will go if I've ripped music to my computer.

My 17 tracks were ripped perfectly. There were 3 tracks I had to hunt down. I finally found them in other places 1 of them was labeled as track 1 for the title and the artist was unknown. WMP didn't no what to do with it. Like all ms products it tried to think for me and put it in the unknown folder under an album folder called unknown album followd by a random number or maybe it was the current date. There were a few tracks there from a few different discs btw. So why did this happen? Well when I removed the cd from my library and atempted to rip it again i used the search for cd information on the context menu of the cd name. I was presented with an edit box to either search or a place to manually type in any information. I did a search and sure enough my album was listed 4 different ways. Only 1 of these listings had the same number of tracks mine did, which again was 20, the other album listings only had 17 tracks. So, armed with this information I hope it helps you im one way or another. Another option of course is to use the search for information and go to the edit link to manually edit the track names and such. Then re-rip the cd with your new info added. The good thing about wmp, not to say anything about any other program is that it's fast, usually makes a good rip, puts proper tags (when it can find them) and names the files accordingly. Again I know many other programs do this too but For now I'm sticking with wmp. And again I will stress, no program I have found yet can tag mp3s like winamp. I am amazed sometimes how with little information that sucker can tell you what it is. Good luck and I'll shut up now. bb - Original Message - From: Tom Kaufman tomca...@comcast.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 5:52 PM Subject: Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)] But I do thank you for trying to help; forgot to say that before!

Not sure what to tell you. I had a cd that i ripped that had 17 tracks out of 20. I found the 3 tracks in a different folder called unknown. I organize my ripping method by artists directory, then album directory. I have found a few stray tracks in other places in these folders. WMP also moved things around when i had the option to find missing information. For example, I had a song that was on a compilation. WMP took the song and made a new directory and put that one track in there. When I saw the directory of the album name, and I knew I didn't own that album. Sure enough when I went to see what was inside the directory it was my missing track sitting there by itself with a totally different album name in the tag. So my advice, not the greatest, is too look around your music directory that all your wmp stuff goes in to. If it's a big mess try sorting your files by last date modified. This will tel lyou what folders have had changes made to them in the most recent to the oldest.

Re: Ripping with WMP [was Re: An Odd Problem (at least to me!)]
The only other thing I'd suggest is trying to rerip it with another CD ripper, and see if that has any better luck. I know I use WMP first, but if WMP has any problems then I try CDEX to see if that does any better. For example, the other day I ripped a Gaelic Storm CD, and WMP didn't come up with the tags, so I ripped it with CDEX, which didn't have any problems finding the right tag information.

Thanks, Eleanor, will try that. Does Five Live do a commentary, too? It's obviously nott accessible for me either except with a proxy which I haven't got. But since there was no signal when I checked, I supposed they'd broadcast, too. Don't they do all matches like they used to?
