Hi,

I just triled to rip and audio cd, and couldn't do it (first time I tried
this since I upgraded to F15).

When I inserted the cd it was successfully detected as an audio cd, and I
was asked about what I wanted to do. I chose to use Sound Juicer, but it
failed to recognize the audio tracks (the list remained empty, only the cd
title field was filled). I then tried listening to the cd using rhythmbox,
but it behaved the same -- only the title, no tracks. Don't know if this is
relevant, but both sound juicer and rhythmbox complained they couldn't find
the cd info on MusicBrainz. Sound juicer shows "retrieving track listing...
please wait" on the status bar.

Last attempt was to open the cd with the file manager, and all 14 WAV tracks
were there. But, when I tried to copy them by dragging them to another
folder, the copy progress dialog showed up and but copy stopped on the 4th
file. The only way I could copy the files was by copying chunks of 3 files
at a time.

This cd isn't deffective nor copy-protected, because my wife successfully
ripped it on her iMac. Anyway, I tried another audio cd just to make sure,
and this time it appeared on rhythmbox.

... now comes the weird part: i reinserted the 1st audio cd, and this time
its tracks also appeared on rhythmbox! (it wasn't able to fetch tracks data,
but there was no MusicBrainz complaints this time).

So, to sum it all up:

- tried the cd through sound juicer and rhythmbox, both failed to even
recognize the tracks
- copy WAV files directly through file manager also failed
- inserted another audio cd, didn't open sound juicer, rhythmbox recognizes
it just fine
- reinserted 1st cd, didn't open sound juicer, rhythmbox regoznized it

Anyone else seeing this? I don't know if this makes any sense, but it looks
as if sound juicer kind of "blocks" other apps from accessing the audio
tracks.

Regards,

Andre
