Rip Audio CD's didn't work perfect and very SLOW [#19856]

Post by Roxmarie »

Today i bought a Gold lifetime lisence to rip some of my audio cd's with correct tags.

I want it in good quality and it goes slow. And more slow. Because media monkey push the cd out of the cd-tray. The programm didn't read the cd anymore. The cd's work perfect in other programms and my cd-player.

But i ripped 3 cd-singles, and 3 times the same message. Really anoying and dissapointing.


What can i do, to rip my cd's to my harddisc from my pc?

Which Build (Help > About) and what message did you get?

Speed does depend on your Rip settings. For example Secure read is slower.

Can you define slow (time for full Album) and what file type you're ripping to?

MediaMonkey 5.0.4.2690


I have tested the programm on my old machine after deleting my registration on my new machine.

But also on the old machine I got the same message.

]No audio CD found load one.

This after the programm opened the tray, without my command, or the operation ripping finished.

So it looks like a bug in your programm.

My RIP settings are:
Classification is MP3
Preset: Madness: CBR- 320 kbps - Highest Quality

Riptype: Standard Read
Ticked are:
Eject CD after ripping
Normalise track volume
Direct encoding

See some screenshots:
I can't upload this.

One cd-single between 2-6 songs for example costs 5-15 minutes, or i couldn't get it done, because the tray are again openend by the programm.

Are you saying the tray opens while you're ripping? Can you disable the option to eject the CD after Rip completes? Does it still happen?

I've not seen this happen and can successfully Rip full CD's.

I put the cd-single in the player, Media monkey is already started.
After a while i see the cd in Media Monkey, when i have lucky i see the titles, but sometimes I must click on search album information.

When i see the numbers in the programm i want to rip the cd. But 3 out of 4 times, the cd comes out before i can clik on audio de rippen.

It's no differents between the setting Eject CD after ripping of not. It happens often that te tray comes out (i didn't click on it or whatever)

In Windows Media Player I didn't have this problems!

And also a strange thing, is that i found is that when the tags not found i couldn't change the CD (only te tekst from the tags)

You can manually edit files on the CD prior to Ripping, I do this all the time.

Please capture the inserting to CD being ejected in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to the Support Ticket: viewtopic.php?t=86643

This will help a developer analyze why this happens on your setup.

Thanks for the log, it turned out to be a bug: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=19856

The workaround till the new version is released, is to set ReadCDText=0 instead of 1 in the MediaMonkey.ini.
