Problems getting Nimbie to work

[ddetaey]

I am trying to use the Nimbie for secure batch ripping, but encounter the following problem:
After the Nimbie has loaded a CD, each time I get the following error message : "No CD after load"

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your support

Dirk

P.S. the Nimbie works fine with another ripping program

If you have multiple CD drives, make sure you have configured the correct drive letter as the Nimbie

Re: Problems getting Nimbie to work

As the Nimbie correctly loads and unloads the CD's, and in CD Ripper the right drive letter is selcted, is there any other place where this needs to be configured?

No, sometimes the drive letters can be swapped especially if manually assigned a drive letter.

No CD after load suggests that dBpoweramp cannot communicate with the CD drive. Load a disc in the drive and try CD ripper to see if recognizes the disc (without using the robot).

Hi Spoon

Loading the disc manually did the trick. It enabled me to setup AccurateRip correctly and it ripped the disc as usual.
Retrying using the robot after that worked immediately. I still don't understand why, but hopefully it keeps on working now

Thanks for your support

Maybe one last question, are there any issues enabling Ultra Secure Rip using a robot (the Nimbie in particular), or is it better to remain with AccurateRip ?

Ultra secure does use AccurateRip, for most people just using AccurateRip is enough.

Re: Problems getting Nimbie to work

I have this issue as well. It occurs when I begin another batch after the first has completed. First the "Unable to locate Nimbie, is connected?" error pops up. Then it will actually load a disc and reject it.

dBpoweramp Batch Ripper
Batch Name:
Batch ID: 50025
Using Profile: npr_program
Batch Rip Started: 9/30/2014 16:45:07

Unable to locate Nimbie, is connected?

: Reject 1: No CD After Load Reject 1: No CD After Load
: Reject 2: No CD After Load Reject 2: No CD After Load


However, once it resyncs(?) with the drives, the batch will run.
