Well I managed to rip my first CD last night so maybe my experience might help, although I don't yet understand the implications. The option to rip a CD appears on two different menus on my 0.18.1 setup. If I remember right you can select Optical Disks on the main menu and then Rip CD. If I do this then the CDDB lookup doesn't work and all I see are the track lengths. Attempting to rip the CD causes the frontend to hang, (maybe because there is no title or track names ?) However, i discovered last night that there is a Rip CD option under the frontend setup menus as well. Select Setup from the Main Menu and then go to mythmusic I think, and there's a rip CD option there too( I could be wrong about the exact location but it's there somewhere, with the scan for music option) Once I select this menu then the CDDB lookup magically works and I successfully ripped the CD (once I'd given user mythtv permission to write to the mythmusic directory). Hope this helps. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
