ripping audio cd to mp3

[menendez]

I am having some trouble ripping audio cd to mp3.

I have the lame package installed

If I use Grip I do not receive any error messages but the resulting mp3 file is of size 0.

Here is how Grip is configured:

Encoder: lame

Encoder executable: /usr/bin/lame

Encoder command-line: -h --tt "%n" --ta "%a" --tl "%d" --ty "%y" --tn "%t" --tg "%G" -b %b %w %m

Encoder file extension: mp3

Encode file format: ~/mp3/%A/%d/%t_%n.%x

 

Also, I tried KAudioCreator but I get a "selected encoder not found"

Here is how KAudioCreator is configured:

Encoder: MP3

Command Line: /usr/bin/lame

Extension: mp3

Location: ~/%{extension}/%{albumartist}/%{albumtitle}/%{artist} - %{number} - %{title}.%{extension}

 

I confirmed that the lame executable is in the /usr/bin file.

I installed Sound Juicer. And that rips to MP3 with no problem.

So I uninstalled Grip.

 

Although it would be nice to get KAudioCreator working since that is the KDE packaged application.

K3b cab be used to rip mp3's from audio Cd's as well.

Best by test is Exact Audio Copy ( exactaudiocopy.de ) via wine. It works without any serious glitch.

Is RipperX still in the repos? That is what I have used in the past.
