    Audiobook Ripping Wishlist

    I have been using dbPoweramp for format conversions for a few years and just realized it included CDRipper. So I'm now using CDRipper for ripping audiobooks. I was using EAC. I do prefer the interface and ripping features of CDRipper. With my audiobooks I use a 3 digit numeric file name for each mp3. I then use a tagger app to add the basic tags to the ripped tracks at the same time, online metadata for audiobooks is spotty and inconsistant at best. For example a book has 10 disks with 15 tracks each giving 150 total tracks. I want the resulting mp3s to be titled 001.mp3 -> 150.mp3. In EAC I used %tracknr3% for naming and the "Continue from last track number" button with each disc. To achieve the same in CDRipper I use [SETLEN]3,48,,[track][] for naming and the following process for each disc in the book, right click a track, hover over "Apply Track Offset Number", click on a number in the pop-out list, repeat until the desired number is achieved. This isn't too bad on books with a few tracks per disc but on some books this can be a major clickfest. I ripped one book that had 9 discs total, 8 with 98 tracks each and the last with 93 tracks, 877 tracks in total. For the last disc which needed to start at track/filename 785 I had to do the above process 9 times, 8x100+1x-16. Not all books are that bad but long books with 20+ discs with 20 tracks each it can still be somewhat of a clickfest.

    Granted this is a 1st world problem but is there a way to possibly implement one of the following:

    1) Something like EACs "Continue from last track number" button.
    2) Use a freeform field that a number can be directly entered in to.
    3) Change the options in the "Apply Track Offset Number" pop-out list
    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,2 00,300,400,500,600,700,800,900 with a negative option
    and possibly the ability to use the ctrl button to select multiple numbers simultaneously.



    Thanks for the awesome application.

      Why don't you use the disc number as leading part in the filename?
