Hi :) Rhythmbox is supposed to be quite good. I like Brasero too but i think that is slightly different. Brasero might let you make an iso file on your hard-drive so that you have a back-up copy of the Cd/Dvd and can play it as though it really is a Cd/Dvd. The ultra latest stuff tends to have some security to try to prevent it but their security usually fails even without actually 'hacking' it (they mean cracking). Continuing to assume these are Cd/Dvds that you own, have you tried just playing them? If you put the Cd/Dvd in and just double-slick on it it should start just playing. That pulls it into Rhythmbox (or whatever) and that will probably let you copy or move the track to another place, like your music folder. All this ripping and stuff sounds quite tiring and complicated. Drag&drop or copy&paste might be easier. I haven't read these links but they look like reputable sources. My fav is the 2nd link (i actually did manage to read 'all the way through' that one) http://askubuntu.com/questions/6392/how-rhythmbox-music-management-works https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/musicvideophotos/C/music-extract.html https://answers.launchpad.net/rb-fileorganizer/+question/182527 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1526841 Notice that Ubuntu has a lot of the same "support forums" that LibreOffice has. We have an AskLO and the proper forums are about to go live any month now. We don't generally have much documentation on the official TDF or LibreOffice websites (like this at the Rhythmbox site https://live.gnome.org/RhythmboxPlugins/ThirdParty although there is an Faq on 'ours'. We tend to use a Wiki instead because it's easier to update and more people updating it or rewording it helps capture inspiration even from non-English speakers and then "smooth things out" into better English later. There is another general Gnu&Linux forum at http://www.linuxquestions.org It is off-topic for this emailing list but heck, why not just ask! No harm done :) We could probably help with soem Windows or Mac or Android issues too tbh because when you start using Gnu&Linux you learn a lot about other systems quite fast even if it's just from other people showing off and trying to tell you why their system is better (even tho it isn't, they all have pros and cons) Regards from Tom :)________________________________ From: Dries Feys <dries.feys@tvh.com> To: "users@global.libreoffice.org" <users@global.libreoffice.org> Sent: Tuesday, 16 April 2013, 8:25 Subject: [libreoffice-users] OT : good cd import software on linux Hi all, This is waaaaay of topic, but as there are many linux adepts over here, I wonder what software you use to rip cd's to mp3. (or ogg vorbis, but I prefer mp3 as that's supported on more hardware than ogg) On windows, I used to use iTunes, which recognised (through cddb, or whatever sony made it now) nearly all cd's, also the less common like folk music (Bal O'Gadjo, Embrun,...) On ubuntu, those cd's are rarely recognised. The final goal is to rate the songs with stars (or another symbol) like in Itunes, and then be able to export a best-of to my collection to my cell phone, tablet and/or usb-stick. Are there some packages I should install to have those cd's recognised, or what should I do?
