Thanks. I've now switched from cdparanoia to cdda2wav, like so... cdda2wav -vall dev=1,0,0 cddb=0 -paranoia -B I get separate tracks and info files, e.g. audio_01.inf, audio_01.wav. audio_02.inf, audio_02.wav, etc. I can pull the tune and artist from the Tracktitle= entry in the corresponding .inf file, and write a bash script to cycle through the directory, and use flac's -o option to give the flac file the correct name. I have an issue with /etc/sudoers, but that's a totally different thread. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
