I did have to manually enter in the tracks from the latest ashes of ares record, but that's because it wasn't a part of freedb. - Original Message - From: Tom Kaufman tomca...@comcast.net To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2014 10:14 AM Subject: RE: Ripping With CDEX: Is ItNo Longer Possible To Have Cdex Title Tracks? I'm either down to that...or just trying to see what I can do with Windows Media; so far, no luck there as I cannot find something that says srip CD (I have a set of instructions that tell me that control-3 will put me where I need to be for ripping CDs with Windows Media. However I have been through all the tabs and there's absolutely nothing indicating to me that I can rip a CD with this program either! Totally frustrated!

CDEx doesn't use Gracenote by default, you have to install a different program called player which you can find on the gracenote site and this will allow you to export information from Gracenote to CDEx and, yes, this still works fine. GraceNote is far better than FreeCDDB, but both still exist and Gracenote complements the former.

Hi, If this has already been addressed I apologize but I'm wondering if you've attempted to play a cd to verify that the drive itself is reading cd's properly. Can you hear the audio from a cd?
