Ripping problems

scuba14c · 01-02-2007, 10:02 AM

I have WMP11 installed, but it will not let me rip CD's. It doesn't seem to recognize the format. Am I just missing a codec or driver?

try downloading some codecs:

download the K-lite codec pack which ever version you feel you need standard should do.

You have Windows Media Player 11, and it will not let you rip CD's?

So try something else.

I downloaded the codec pack, but it still says WMP cannot find the files, however the CD is recognized as audio by the drive.

ok so in WMP 11 you click rip then it says insert cd then u insert and...it just says connot find files? what file format are the files? if its just a normal audio cd it should be .WAV

I'm on the rip tab, and on the upper left it lists the media as audio CD, but doesn't detect any tracks on it. Then when I go into explorer and manually open the files, it says it cannot find the file. The file format is whatever comercially produced CDs are.

Does the cd play when you insert it? or if you browse the cd drive does it show all the songs?

scuba14c · 01-03-2007, 11:40 AM

when I insert it, it doesn't play. the default program is WMP. All the songs are shown in explorer.

Does anyone have a solution?

Use something else.

Windows Media Player isn't the only program for ripping CDs...
