  1. Re: Ripping Mission Accomplished (mostly) - Thanks to Spoon and Illustrate

    I bought my first CD in 1985 -- two years before I bought my first CD player. In the interim I used a friend's CD player to record my small number of discs onto cassette tapes. About 2000 CDs later I...

    Re: MF Digital Baxter

    I was able to get the Discmakers Pico (99.99% the same as the MF Digital Baxter) to work in Windows 7. The same method would probably work with Windows 10 64 bit. Take a look at what I did on this...

    Re: Wrong titles, wrong album

    There are no tags on normal CDs. The way programs attempt to match a CD to the database are with track information such as length and sequence of the tracks. There can be instances where more than...

    Re: Best Automated Ripper Hardware

    Years? I see a problem here. Let's assume that it does a disc in an average of 3 minutes. You are either very poky at reloading (Nimbie holds 100 discs, needs a reload every 5 hours), have a really...
  5. Re: problems getting album metadata for certain CDs

    Although iTunes is free to you Apple pays (or at least used to pay) some sort of fee/royalty to access the DB that iTunes uses to look up the metadata. The license info for iTunes indicates that it...

    It can be used for error detection I would imagine.



    Use some old CDs that you really don't care about anymore! Or ones that you have already ripped to high quality. As for the code, you are...

    Re: Not Showing in iTunes

    There is almost certainly a "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder. If you navigate to your iTunes media folder location (look in iTunes preferences -> advanced) you'll see that folder. It is probably...

    Re: my experience with ripping pristine old CD's

    Typically nobody uses flash for long-term storage purposes, partially due to the high cost per megabyte. Most who have analyzed the potential for it for long-term say to stay away from it. The...
  9. Re: Fool a Discmakers Pico to be an Acronova Dupliq?

    It took some doing, but I finally found the files I used to do the install (PC had been reimaged since then and I didn't install the software and drivers again). It looks like the only tinkering I...
  10. Re: Fool a Discmakers Pico to be an Acronova Dupliq?

    I haven't been able to get it to work with anything but Riptastic (using Windows XP) and DBPoweramp. Riptastic was specifically designed to use this model of ripper so that wasn't tough. I've tried...

    Re: dbPoweramp contains DRM

    What, not five nines? /s Just kidding, four nines is pretty good. If you actually have five nines then you are doing very well. I'm curious, what operating system do you have it running on?

    Re: please osx autorip

    Because the sound is heard by a human that knows which one was ripped at a slower speed than the other one -- and that human expects them to sound differently.

    Re: DIY Disc Changer

    Nice work. You mention that you are lazy but I need to counter that argument with the fact that you probably put in quite a bit of work to create and get that robot arm working. How much money and...

    Re: CD ripper can't find CD drive

    The first step is to get Windows to recognize the drive. Does it show up in device manager without any errors?

    Re: Bizarre problem with Nimbie USB Plus

    Inexpensive and new auto-loader? Nope. You got the least expensive one, and that's probably half the price of the closest.
  16. Re: Fool a Discmakers Pico to be an Acronova Dupliq?

    A bit of an old thread, but I was able to get the Pico to work as a robot ripper under Windows 7 64 bit using DBPoweramp. I modified the .inf from an Acronova Nimbie. I'm not sure you can get all the...

    Re: Not all my cds will rip, what can I do?

    Try ripping one of the problem CDs with iTunes. If it doesn't rip then your problem almost certainly isn't with DBPA.

    Re: dbpoweramp and Sony XL1B - Windows versions?

    Your biggest challenge could be finding the correct drivers for the robot. If you don't have a fairly new robot then it is possible that a driver for Win10 or Win7 doesn't exist. I had to use a...
  19. Re: How To Rip A Copy Protected CD With DBPoweramp!

    If it is copy protected then you may have stumbled upon a new type of copy protection or this CD is not on a list of previously available ones with protection. The two types of protection for CD's...

    Re: best way to batch convert flac to aiff?

    iTunes doesn't require AIFF for a lossless format. Wouldn't Apple Lossless be a better choice? Yes, it is compressed but like FLAC it doesn't lose any quality like MP3 does.

    Re: best way to batch convert flac to aiff?

    The big question is why use AIFF? Since you are trying to embed artwork you obviously aren't trying to create CDs from those files. Are you using some unusual software that requires AIFF? Since it's...

    You might review this posting. It may give some insight as to if that is possible or not. You might have some success because it appears your hardware connects by serial.

    I am totally unfamiliar with your exact device but this could be caused by a hardware problem. There should be some sort of position limit sensor that detects if the arm is all the way up. If this is...

    Re: Why can't I burn purchased music to CD?

    M4P tracks are copy protected. M4A are not. You can use iTunes to burn a CD of either type, but not from music sourced only through Apple Music. You may still have some AM-sourced music in that...
