I've lost dBbPower Amp as my default ripper

[berni_armstrong]

Until recently if I wanted to rip a CD to play in my car (which only has an mp3 player) - I simply placed the CD in the tray and as soon as it loaded up came dBPoweramp open at the page which recognises the CD and I simply selected the tracks I wanted to rip and the programme did the rest.

Now, suddenly, this automatic process isn't happening. Indeed, no default programme fires up when I insert a CD.

I have still been able to use dBPoweramp by opening the programme manually from the desktop. It then seems to recognise there is a CD in the tray, but it doesn't give me the usual page with the track recognition, etc. The screen offers simply a list with Track 01, Track 02, etc. I have later changed the track names manually. But that has meant the artist section displays on my mp3 player as Unknown.... and is of course a pain in the neck compared with the track recognition system I used to have access to.

Can anyone guess what is going on here? If its simply a matter of restoring dBPoweramp as the default for CDs - how do I do that? If I need to reinstall the programme, then how do I do that?

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

If you are running a windows PC then go to:

Control Panel (view by small icons) >> Default Programs >> Change AutoPlay settings >> CDs

and next to Audio CD, select Rip Audio from CD (dBpoweramp CD Ripper) from the dropdown menu.

It is likely your security software is blocking dBpoweramp from accessing the internet.
