Re: CDEx Question
Good Morning Walter Done that and it worked up to a point. For another disc it's just fine but for this one it seems it's not on the database so no details are forthcoming. I'll have to look at MP3Tag I think it is and see what that can do for me or, if all else fails, type the name and artist of each track individually. 3 disc of around 24 tracks each. Keep me out of mischief for a while. LOL However many thanks for your help.

Hi Joe, I would search my main drive for one of the files. Go into my computer and select your main drive. Do not open it, but rather, press alt f to bring up the file menu. Arrow down to where it says search and press enter. Now, enter a couple of words from the title of one of the songs and press enter. After some time, you should be able to back tab to a list of files found! Hope this helps.

Re: CDex Question
The only way I know of overcoming this is to do it in two stages. First, put your CD in the tray and start CDEX - the tray will close and CDEX will detect the tracks on the disc, Then press the F10 button on your keyboard and press enter. This tells CDEX that you want to make a WAV file of the entire CD. After a few minutes the process will stop and the CD will be ejected. Now go into the MP3 folder in my music and cut and paste the WAV file into the folder from which you select files for compression. This may well be your My Documents folder. Now restart CDEX and press F11. Select the WAV file you created and press enter. This then converts the file into a single MP3 file which will play as if you had the CD in a normal CD player. The only trouble is that you've now lost the ability to skip between tracks as there's no indexing within this single file. This is the only way of ripping a CD so that it plays without annoying split second disruption between tracks, which is, by the way, actually caused by the software you use to play the music, as it takes a split second to load the next track from your hard drive.

Re: CDEX question
Hi Judy, It really depends on your needs, whether an upgrade is useful. I have been useing 1.51 for quite some time, and it does what I need, so I really have no need to upgrade. I have many programs installed, because I find what a multi-use program seems to do the best for me, and then that is the only thing I use the program for. CDEX has never given me cause to look for another ripper, so that is what I dedicate it to.

Re: cdex question
Yep, in CDEX, from the menu bar, go into Options -> Settings. You can also use F4. To the left of the Encoder tab is the File Names tab. I have to use my JAWS cursor here to click on the browse button (It may be called the .. (or dot dot) button.), but I think it's all pretty straight forward. It's been a while since I've done this though, so I could be wrong about that. Let me know if it isn't as easy as I seem to recall.

Re: cdex question, output sample rate
Maybe it adjusts itself to the quality of the recording you're trying to rip. Maybe someone else might have more information that could help.

Re: cdex question
If you read down the list of tracks in CDEX using your normal PC or insertion cursor then you're going to end up highlighting the last track only and ripping only that track. The default for CDEX is to select all tracks for ripping so you literally just need to put your disc in the drawer, start CDEX and when you hear it start announcing the CD information, just hit F8 to rip to WAV or F9 to rip to MP3. You would only want to arrow down the list of tracks if you wished to rip a selection of the tracks and not all of them.
