    Encoder Not Found

    I was running an older version of dBpoweramp and got the error message "Encoder Not Found". I saw I was running an older version so I just updated to 17.1.
    I still get the same error message and can't figure it out.

    I'm running it on a Mac Mini (Late 2012) with SSD drives and Mojave 10.14.6.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Yes, I'm trying to rip a CD.

    There are no encoders showing up.

    Pictures of what your CD Ripper window looks like would be welcome, to be extra sure how it's failing.

    Also, please export a snapshot of your configuration (R17.1: dBpoweramp Advanced Settings, diagnostics tab) and email it to peter@dbpoweramp.com for analysis; since reinstalling dBpoweramp did not resolve it there must be something wrong in its configuration data.

    That's just it - I don't see anything in the Encoder part of the window and I don't see a "dBpoweramp Advanced Settings" option
    anywhere. I don't see a "diagnostics tab" either. Email sent.

    The diagnostics tab:

    https://www.dbpoweramp.com/Help/dMCOSX/

    Run the main program >> 'Advanced Settings'

    https://www.dbpoweramp.com/Help/dMCOSX/dMCConfig.htm

    There will be a new diagnostics tab.

    Re: Encoder Not Found

    It seems my email reply didn't come thru?

    It appears that some of your dBpoweramp profile folders cannot be accessed.
    I added specific fixes for this in newly posted dBpoweramp beta-
    https://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthr...2-for-Mac-beta

    It will now attempt to recover from this automatically and refuse to start up if that fails.

    If problems persist, type these in Mac OS Terminal:
    sudo chown -R "$USER" ~/Library/dBpoweramp
    sudo chmod -R o+rw ~/Library/dBpoweramp

    (sudo will prompt for your password)

    If neither of the above helps, open Finder, go to ~/Library (Cmd+Shift+G), delete "dBpoweramp" folder.

    No, I did not get the email. Sorry.

    I tried the first step and when I launched the new version I got this error message:

    "dBpoweramp installation damaged - please reinstall.

    I will try the second step.

    That fixed it.
