Re: Why can't I play in Winamp?

Do I do that with Nero or a program like that? Nope, you would use Nero to burn your cd, not rip the audio from it. When you rip a cd, you convert it to mp3. You can use CDEX, Easy CD DA Extractor, or if you wanna take a whole lot of time and like using really slow programs, Winamp can do it. I found that even the pro addition of Winamp, which claims to rip audio from your cds as fast as your computer drive would allow, took twice as long as any other program. and my cd rom drive is 52x, so it seems to me it shouldn't take too long. So get yourself one of those and convert your cds to mp3. There's your answer on that one. Now Josh continues...

All you did was to type in one command, and more than one or two were performed, saving you a lot of effort when doing common tasks.

Hi, From what you say, you did not rip the file. You just copied the index file pointing to the audio files on the cd to your folder.

RE: Why can't I play in Winamp?
All people here, Rip your music first before it can be played in winamp as you like. I mean if your tracks are on the CD, probably, it is an audio file with an extention of .cda. All you have to do is to have a converter installed on your system for you to create a compilation as you wish. If the format is changed, you can use winamp to play this file, I mean the music file. You can then burn it again to have it to your car, ok? Enjoy!

Re: Why can't I play in Winamp?
hi. but if you try to play the .cda file in Winamp, it won't play. So, let's make this really super simple. Use Winamp, or any other CD ripping program to rip the tracks from your CD into mp3 or any other format you choose. To make a compilation to play in a regular CD player, you need to burn, not rip, but burn a cd of all your songs. Ripping and burning are different processes. So even if you just copied the.cda files from your cd to your hard drive, Winamp wouldn't be able to play it, because all Winamp does is access your Windows cd player to play the files, it doesn't actually have a cd player built into it. Winamp just routes the cd player to it and plays the CD through it instead of the CD player. Hope that makes sense? At 09:07 AM 2/21/2006, you wrote: Hi, From what you say, you did not rip the file.

Hi, I'm not Chris, but get cdex. Its free, but by no means the only ripping option.

Which ever ripping program you ultimately choose, make sure it uses one of the cd identification databases out there, so that you have real titles to your ripped songs and not generic names like track01, track02 et cetera!

Subject: Re: Why can't I play in Winamp? hi. but if you try to play the .cda file in Winamp, it won't play. So, let's make this really super simple. Use Winamp, or any other CD ripping program to rip the tracks from your CD into mp3 or any other format you choose. To make a compilation to play in a regular CD player, you need to burn, not rip, but burn a cd of all your songs. Ripping and burning are different processes. So even if you just copied the.cda files from your cd to your hard drive, Winamp wouldn't be able to play it, because all Winamp does is access your Windows cd player to play the files, it doesn't actually have a cd player built into it. Winamp just routes the cd player to it and plays the CD through it instead of the CD player. Hope that makes sense? At 09:07 AM 2/21/2006, you wrote: Hi, From what you say, you did not rip the file.

RE: Why can't I play in Winamp?
Hi people, I have something to teach. If your music files are in low volume, you can turn it up by: If you have there MP3 files, rip it to wav files, then play it to sound recorder; a program came along with your OS there, then go to effects menu, then up the volume till you get satisfied. Then save, then rip them back to MP3 where they originate.

I use to be able to play them just fine till I had a computer crash, and had to re-install my programs. So somewhere in that process things got messed up in Win Amp.

Subject: RE: Why can't I play in Winamp? Obviously Winamp can't play without the source. I think this person thought he could rip the cd through winamp by simply copying as he would from any data disk. I think it's just a case of not quite comprehending the difference. Must be a beginner thing. I hate to admit it, but I'm sure I've come to a few of these erroneous conclusions myself especially in my novice years, but pride will not let me publicly recall them all g.

Subject: Re: Why can't I play in Winamp? Here are what I hope will be some straight forward instructions for getting the job done. In Winamp, go to the context menu by pressing the alt key, then go to the Winamp menu option, then look for the play option, under there you will find an option for playing audio cd. Press enter on that option, and your audio cd should start to play. If Winamp doesn't play the tracks in order, return to options in the above mention winamp menu, and look for shuffle. if the option is checked, uncheck it. If you want Winamp to shuffle the tracks, leave it alone. At 09:11 AM 2/21/2006, you wrote: Josh, I did the same thing. OOPS! My files won't play either.

Why can't I play in Winamp?
Hello friends, Wonder if anyone has a thought on this? I coppied a few pieces from a CD to a folder on my c drive. Then I tried to play them. However, although winamp did open, nothing plays. Here's how I did it. First I highlighted the items I wanted to pick out from the cd. Next I coppied them to the clipboard. Then I coppied them to this folder I mentioned before. So they do appear in the folder, but will not play in win anp.

Re: Why can't I play in Winamp?
You cant do that because then they will be in a .cda format; and this does not work. You must rip them, and someone else can help you with this.HTH - Original Message - From: josh n rivera [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, February 20, 2006 6:13 PM Subject: Why can't I play in Winamp?

I thought there was a vxd file you could get that would rip disks this easy. - Original Message - From: Jouie [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'PC audio discussion list.

Re: Why can't I play in Winamp?
Well hey, it's perfectly fine, and a pretty damn good question. Nah, you have to rip them to mp3 or some other format before Winamp will play them. At 08:41 PM 2/20/2006, you wrote: Woops!
