Make Bit-Perfect Archives of Your CDs With FLAC
Posted 10/12/2007 at 03:03:54pm
I have an extensive CD collection an was excited about this article but it does seem to be rather incomplete. I have installed this routine a number of times, never received the install and configure LAME screen, a file named "accuraterip.dll" already exists in the EAC install folder. Is it to be replaced with the dbpoweramp file?? I Dunno... I did not get any screens referencing WinAmp or Nero when installing DbPoweramp. It is very vague about the second EAC "configure," sending results for comparison. There is no "Configure" button to click after re-starting EAC, only the file list screen. I thought I configured a naming scheme and nested file structure but I have to manually go to the particular folder I want to save the audio files to, creating manually my own file structure. I think a much better job of explaining this could have been done. The links given above are instrumental in setup. Now, everything works like a charm. I can code into many different formats. Media Monkey is totally awesome. I deleted Windows Media Player from my machine. It will play flac files as well as many other codecs and burn them to CD. It also has an I-Tunes plug-in, though I have not tried it. I use Creative Media Player. Great subject it just needed a little more elaboration and some attention to detail.
