Thanks everyone for the educational discussion here. I took the suggestion from an earlier post and installed KB3. This is a user friendly app that encodes to flac (or other encoder) after using cdparanoia to rip. After hunting through the configuration screens for file nameing and encoding options, I clicked 'rip.'
The rip is only successful to a local drive, not my server music share. The KB3 file dialog shows the mounted remote share and allows me to select folders for destinations, but I get the error below. KB3 gives the following error, and I have pasted it's log contents below: "Commmand failed: FLAC -V -o /home/mark/...." "Error while encoding track 3."

I looked in the Ubuntu log viewer but I really don't know my way around. More data: I copied my ripped file to the network folder. 60MB required 7-8 minutes at 140kb/s. My wife watches movies across this network, so I know it's adequate. Is 140 slower than it should be-- do I need to look at drivers or other settings in Ubuntu? Or do I only need a solution for KB3 writing to an XP share? Thanks. -- mark-e-mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mark-e-mark's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57534 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
