Seen similar and there is hidden gotcha in the file naming convention unless you are careful. By default most rippers name the files 01-Trackname.flac etc but with a multi-disc set there is the potential (and I have since it ONCE in 4,000 plus albums) where the same track name appears in the same place on more than one disc. I can't for the life of me remember which album it was but when I came to play it I found there was a track missing from disc 1. Made up example CD1 Track 6 is Let It Be - so the file name becomes "06 - Let It Be.flac" CD2 Track 6 is also Let It Be - so the file name is also "06 - Let It Be.flac" and overwrites the one from CD1 Because this has actually happened to me I have altered the settings of my ripper (dbPoweramp) to write discno-trackno-trackname.flac Just a thought VB2.4[/B] STORAGE *QNAP TS419P (NFS) [B]Living Room* - Joggler & SB3 -> Onkyo TS606 -> Celestion F20s *Office* - Pi3+Sreen -> Sony TAFE320 -> Celestion F10s / Pi2+DAC & SB3 -> Onkyo CRN755 -> Wharfedale Modus Cubes *Dining Room* -> SB Boom *Kitchen* -> UE Radio (upgraded to SB Radio) *Bedroom (Bedside)* - Pi2+DAC ->ToppingTP21 ->AKG Headphones *Bedroom (TV)* - SB Touch ->Sherwood AVR ->Mordaunt Short M10s Everything controlled by iPeng ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d6jg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44051 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111644 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
