updated to 3.8 and added libcddb-1.3.2-i686.pet which is needed in lucid 525 due to cddb_query being broken.

I am trying to rip a privately made CD so there is no Internet data available so I used 'manual ID3 tags'. The correct number of track entry fields were requested but only the first track was ripped, then I was prompted for a new disk. I tried a manual track range with the same result.

Command Window Showed

cdparanoia 1-1 -d /dev/sr0 - | lame - --ty "0000" --tn "1" --ta "AR1" --tl "AB1" --tt "TK1" --tg "Other" --tc "" -"V" "3" -"mj" "AB1-01-TK1".mp3

(Pcdripper 3.8, rip to mp3, VBR, stereo, Q=3, Puppy official 4.3.1, Toshiba A200 laptop)

Any ideas ?

I couldn't replicate your trouble but the output showed a definite bug so I fixed that and posted 3.8.1. Install the new version and try again. If it doesn't work post the same screen where it shows the commands that are to be executed.

The command window now looks like a logical command set, rip is processing normally. Thanks for the prompt response.

For what it's worth, I used 3.8.4 (I think it was) to burn a (roughly 4 GB) session to a rewritable Blu-ray disk. It seemed to go well. I haven't enough stuff to save another session yet. I'll use 3.9 when I do.

Fry's electronics had a LG Blu-ray burner OVERPRICED in the store for $70. The ad in the paper said $100. How could I resist? They also had Kodak BD-RE disks with hard coat disk protection for only $4. I bought 3 of them.

The Blu-ray drive seems to see CDs much sooner after I put them in the drive than has any other drive. That could be because the CDs I was ripping were brand new and unscratched. Or maybe I'm just wrong. :lol:

I realized there is a bug in my code when doing manual tags. I just fixed that so going from track to track all the information should be retained (except for the track name). I also fixed it so the drive doesn't spin up between every track's tagging gui. I'll have a 3.9.1 version posted soon. I'm just going to rip a couple of discs first for testing purposes.

Plinej doesn't seem to be around any more. I hope someone who knows more than I do about these things can give me an answer.

First I need to describe what I use Pcdripper for. I use it to convert audio books on CD to mp3, so I can listen to them while I work. Audio books average probably 6~8 CDs, though some are as big as 35 CDs. :shock:
When converting audio book CDs to mp3, I can't tell any difference between 32 kbps mono and the original CD, so I convert all audio books to 32 kbps mono and fit several of them on my mp3 player.

For what I use it for, I like Pcdripper better than Asunder because Pcdripper allows me to convert to 32 kbps mono and Asunder doesn't. Pcdripper's 32 kbps mono files are about half the size of the smallest (lowest quality) Asunder files made from the same CD. Also, Pcdripper is sometimes much faster at ripping (more on that later.)

So, to my questions:

First, I'd like to find a way to make my Pcdripper settings permanent. Right now, I have to reclick about 6 settings every time I put in a new CD to be converted. All the settings except one remain the same for every CD that makes up a book, so I'd like to fix Pcdripper so that the only thing I have to do after I load the next CD is enter its number in the sequence and click "rip."

Second, can anyone give me any idea why Pcdripper sometimes takes only about 3 minutes to rip and convert a CD to mp3, while other times it takes about twice as long? I've noticed that when it takes longer, Pcdripper rips a track from the CD, then stops ripping and waits until the track has been converted to mp3 before ripping the next track on the CD. However, when it only takes 3 minutes or so to rip and convert a CD, ripping seems to be continuous, with converting going on simultaneously.

I've found that whether Pcdripper is in continuous rip or intermittent rip, it continues to do it the same way until I reboot Puppy. I should mention that I run Puppy from a multisession DVD and only save to the DVD if I've changed a setting or installed a program that I want to keep.

In case it might be some help, here are the commands that Pcdripper executes when it's in continuous rip mode:

This particular CD had 15 tracks on it. Pcdripper compressed them to a total of less than 15 MB with little if any noticeable difference in sound quality.

I hope you get the help you request, but if you doesn't succeed with PcdRipper, You might want to test the ripping function in Pmusic. It is also indirectly based on lame via ffmpeg, so the memory usage shouldn't be any better/worse..... I guess.

It supports mono.

When it comes to remember the settings, I can do that for next release.

Thanks, I'll give the newest version of Pmusic a try soon. :)

When I enter the first CD of the audio book, I can tell Pcdripper to put the number 1 as the start of the file numbering. That way, Pcdripper numbers all the mp3 files from the first CD starting with 101, then 102, 103 and so on to the last track of the first CD. (The CD specification limits the maximum number of tracks on a CD to 99.) The mp3 files from the second CD are numbered 201, 202 and so on. Pcdripper puts all the mp3 files from all the CDs that make up the book in the same directory. This works out perfectly for me.

Ok, there are 2 requests that are not yet in Pmusic.
1. Keep settings for output stream
2. User-defined 1. number in 'Add numbering'

BUT, before I do this, please check if the ripping work for you.
