DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Cd ripping + MP3 encoding

GRIP

Quote

Grip is a cd-player and cd-ripper for the Gnome desktop. It has the ripping capabilities of cdparanoia builtin, but can also use external rippers (such as cdda2wav). It also provides an automated frontend for MP3 (and other audio format) encoders, letting you take a disc and transform it easily straight into MP3s. Internet disc lookups are supported for retrieving track information from disc database servers.Grip works with DigitalDJ to provide a unified "computerized" version of your music collection.

Anyone up for making a .dsl ?

I have the .dsl complete. I am forwarding to Kent right now.

You will need to test it. The docs say it needs gnome but I got it to some up with no problems in DSL.

There's also a cdparanoia extension which includes dekagen. Dekagen isn't gtk, but as far as I'm concerned it's just as good as any other frontend.
You'll need to obtain libmp3lame.so from another source if you want to encode mp3s with it.
