Searching for HowTo on ripping with K3B

Hi,
My girl is putting together a dance show and I need to record many tracks from many diff CDs - last night while searching I found how to rip tracks with K3B, it was so late I went to sleep and I bloody forgot how I did it!!!! Now I have dug around for quite some time, I can't seem to find how to do that.

I am using Grip to play my CDs, I know how to rip, but after I ripped the tracks it created "m3u" files which are not recognise by K3B.

I check the K3B help file but it is not covered.

Cheers!

Why do you care about the m3u files? They are just a simple play list.

Second I take it your ripping into mp3 correct? If so again you can easily make your own m3u's and burn them on a CD very easily.

Hi,

You are right, I don't care about these list files - what I m trying to do is to burn these tracks - B4 I can do that, I got to remember how to rip these tracks.

cheers!

Grip should be able to encode the mp3's, i have done it before without any extra configuration

http://nostatic.org/grip/doc/x135.html

check that site and browse those documents on how to rip an audio cd with grip (unfortunately, it has been a while since i used the program and currently do not have it installed)

you may want to install a newer version if there is one available

Hi and tks for yr reply - appreciated.

I found out how to do it, actually it is too simple!! All I had to do was to double click on the DVDRom icon on the explorer panel (not on a file nor folder, but on the DVD) then it retrieved the tracks data and then, it is really easy, with the right click a menu opens up which lets you do everything you want.

Works like a champ!

Cheers!
