Re: a big ripping-problem!!!!!!!
Well, well, well....
and I thought my friend didn't know how to use my computer.
I went to listen to some songs that I had a friend put on my computer. I didn't see the rip process, so I can't say if there are were any errors along the way. Sorry. I hope to get a hold of the cd and try to recreate the problem. I however have the same problem as Matthias. The files, in the info in explorer, say that they are 1kb. However, when I put my cursor over them, the other explorer info says it's 44kb. Either way it's a corrupt file. This led to a GetPopupInfo.exe error, which is how I found this forum on google. I disabled popupinfo and got rid of that problem, but I still couldn't listen to the songs ....I'm sorry I'm rambling, but I'm trying to give as much info as possible.... Anyway, I just got this computer and copied all my old mp3s onto it. I installed a fresh version of dbpowerAMP and these were the first two songs I ripped with my new computer. On my old computer, dbpowerAMP worked so well that I took it for granted. So much so that I never even noticed that it had a start menu program. :-P Now, I'm looking at the "advanced ripping configuration program" and wondering if I need to change anything that I know nothing about. I'm looking specifically at the CD communication. Does that need to be 2000/NT Device IO or 2000/NT Built In???? I see built in and think about a laptop is why I ask. Am I way off base for what this screne is suposed to do?
Anyway the tests:
I heard my friend play the cd in media player, and I have successfully converted an mp3 to a wave with poweramp. I use winamp successfully all the time. I successfully use a seperate program to get streaming media off the internet, and into wave format. It's called AvRack. I don't know if anybody knows how it works, so I don't know if it's success rate can rule out any possible problems.
I havn't messed with anything or tried any other tests you guys mentioned yet.
Now the info I think might be key. It works on my father's laptop, his desktop, my old laptop but not this one. I have almost the same laptop as my father. I should ask him what his cd drive is. Anyway, I'm using:
a Toshiba satelite laptop with the Toshiba DVDrom SD-r2512 drive. It has service pack 1 installed on it. lets see.. I think that's all the info people were asking for, but let me know.
