multimedia cds: is it possible to rip audio tracks only?

[deadlift65]

Hi, I have a couple of multimedia (enhanced) cds. I'd like to rip them with dBpoweramp, in FLAC format (some of them have video content that requires Quicktime).
Can I choose between ripping the whole cd or only the audio tracks?
Thanks and best wishes.

Hey deadlift65,

AFAIK usually multimedia CDs are multisession discs and the audio tracks are within the first session, so that every audio cd player is able to Play those discs. dbpa is able to rip the audio tracks, but not the video content.

dBpoweramp will not rip other than the audio, but if you open the CD you will see the files and can copy them over just like from an ordinary folder. That part is easy. Audio extraction is not (there are no files in the audio part) which is the reason why one needs a CD ripper.
