Problem Ripping CDs
Hello list: Am trying to rip a CD (I first started ripping this boxed set I have, using Windows Media Player 11 as it has served me well in the past) but for some reason, although it appeared to rip the CD, when I looked in the folder, nothing was there! So after several tries, I went to Cdex; I got two of the CDs ripped just fine! But But with the third one, it seems to want to get stuck at track 25, saying that it cannot open My Documents/my music..bla bla bla! So with some doing, I can get it cancelled! But as the last time, now I cannot get the CD door to open; is there no other way other than to restart my computer as I had to do before? Does anyone know why Windows Media would not rip the Cd, although it appeared to have done so? And can anyone tell me why (using Cdex) it won't get past this one track on the CD that I'm currently trying to rip? Must I go through restarting (this computer takes an awful long time to start) so would rather not have to go through that agai n if I can avoid it! Thanks for listening and for any help or info you can supply! Tom Kaufman To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
RE: Problem Ripping CDs
Sounds like some of it maybe it's time for a new PC. As for track 25. Could it be that the CD is too roughed up at that section where that track is written? Is the HDD makeingg any funny noises? Could the empty folder thing be doe to some Hard Disk problem? That's the only time I've had that happen. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Tom Kaufman Sent: Thursday, September 05, 2013 10:44 PM To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Problem Ripping CDs
Well the new PC is sitting on my living room floor; will be put in tomorrow! So hopefully that just might solve the problem! Have never had this happen before where the CD appeared to be ripped, but the folder was empty! And we know that with Windows Media, once you've ripped a CD (then when you have to do it again) the thing will just kick it out of the CD drawer; you then have to go into the library and delete it (and that's not really that simple..at least not for me! I don't know what the problem is with this one CD; why it won't rip beyond track 25, but I think I'm giving it up until I get the new computer in and hope that I have better luck!
