Instead of using 5 different tools to do all of the above I use only two: -Rip with EAC, set up to use FLAC as an external compressor to get FLAC files. -Add replaygain, retag, get album art and convert to other formats, manage file organisation, and much, much more with MediaMonkey (see www.mediamonkey.com). It's also a player. MediaMonkey is a really good piece of software, and it's for free. What would be really nice is to use MediaMonkey to control slimserver instead of the really slow and clumsy web-page approach. -- Jaco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jaco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32425 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
