[kAb]

Anybody know how to rip cd's with winamp5? i downloaded it and got the registration key figured out.

but the instructions on how to rip a cd aren't very helpful.

any help is appreciated :)

I assume you need to pop a cd in, and go into media library to rip.

Here's how to do it straight from Winamp 5.0 Final's help file


To rip CD tracks to your computer hard drive



Insert a CD that has tracks you want to transfer to your computer hard drive.

Open the View menu in the Winamp main window and click Library.

On the right side of the Media Library, click on your CD drive within the Devices list. You may have to doubleclick Devices to see your list of devices. A numbered list of tracks appear in the track list.

If you want to rip some of the tracks on your CD, select the tracks you want to rip in the track list. You can keep Ctrl pressed down to select more than one track.

Open the Rip menu and click one of the following:

Rip selected tracks: Click this to rip the tracks currently selected in the track list.

Rip all tracks: Click this to rip all of the tracks on your CD, regardless of the currently selected tracks.

The status window appears to show you track ripping progress and speed.

dude, do not use the dam WM for ripping, use EAC. WM is for playing files!

Actually he's right and also so wrong.

Use Winamp 5.0 to play your files, and FreeRip (http://www.mgshareware.com/) to rip your music to mp3.
