@flockofnazguls for CDs I truly care about the results I use EAC which is really ideal results wise but it is hella slow. Most stuff I just rip in foobar which has multiple lookup plugins (incl musicbrainz) and a manual edit step, which sounds equivalent to what you're doing.
@flockofnazguls EAC is for stuff that's new to torrent circulation mostly, where people want to see logs and check ffps and such. I do a fair amount of work on live performance bootlegs and some are sourced off CDR, though that's never ideal....anything that's just for me I don't bother
@flockofnazguls ive been using MX Linux too (a flavor called AV Linux). I'm going to migrate off of it, it's been impossible to change my window manager, and I've spent hours tweaking things.
@flockofnazguls I've lately had this stupid problem where none of my ripping software recognize the disc but I can copy .wavs from a term window - gui and non gui ripping software. It's very very annoying
@flockofnazguls nooo i don't think you understand my pain...it's not the db
there's .wav files from the disc in the explorer window or whatever but asunder doesn't see a disc
ahha and look at when i just try to query the drive with cdparanoia
jason@Barbara:~$ cdparanoia -sQ
cdparanoia III release 10.2 (September 11, 2008)
004: Unable to read table of contents header
Unable to open disc. Is there an audio CD in the drive?
the ONLY way i can copy the files are bare .wavs so wtf is up
@SpaceAce@flockofnazguls Gnome must be configured to automatically mount CDs as virtual file systems. There must be a way to unmount the disc from the UI. If not, try doing so with the ‘gio’ command line tool.
