    Thanks for the link. Would you also happen to kow how to get Sound Juicer to encode at more than 160 Kbps? I just ripped some songs using the Hoary Live CD and would like to know how to increase the encoding quality so I'll know when I install hoary to it's own partition.

    Thanks!

    How did you manage to encode at 160 kbps? I can only encode at 256

    I followed these instructions, but when I added 'quality=0.6' to the Gstreamer pipeline part I received this error when trying to rip in Sound Juicer:

    Sound Juicer could not extract this CD
    Reason: Could not create Gstreamer encoder ((null))

    So is this a bug, or can we not increase the encoding rate? 128 Kbps is not enough for me.

    P.S. The instructions worked fine.

    Try adding preset=1002 to the end of the gsteamer profile line. You can also make it preset=1003 (which is the 'Extreme' setting) or preset=1004 ('Insane' setting). You'll also need the gstreamer0.8-mad package, which you can get from the marillat repository.
    Cut down on bored clutter: use the search tool.
    Have you answered a post today?
    New Ubuntu Hoary users might want to check out the Hoary After-Install Helper. Just some shameless self-promotion.

    I get "Sound Juicer could not extract this CD
    Reason: Could not create Gstreamer encoder ((null))" When I put preset=1002 at the end of the line. Yes I have the gstreamer0.8-mad package. I can however rip mp3s if I don't write preset=1002" but the bitrate is way too high

    This is what I have in my profile:
    Code:
     audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc preset=1001

    preset=1001 makes no difference

    I can rip as long as it says audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc
    but not if it says audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc preset=1001

    or 1002 or whatever

    Does anyone have a link to the arguments?

    If someone can help me get this I would be thrilled. I might be able to get rid of WINE and Audiograbber.

    In Audiograbber I rip @ these settings:
    Stereo, High Quality and VBR quality level 3.

    Does Sound Juicer add Id3 tags? Doesnt look to.

    Does anyone use Grip?

    I'm not sure whether this is what you are asking for, but here it goes:

    Code:
    audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc bitrate=128 ! id3v2mux
    I pasted this from: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CDRipping, which gives you detailed instructions on how to rip mp3 songs from soundjuicer. You'll have to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse as indicated.

    It seems that Soundjuicer does not add id3 tags, but I'll look into it.

    I've been using Grip, and although it works fine, I find it overly unintuitive and too much bloated with options. I don't find the soundjuicer interface especially groundbreaking, but at least it is simple and intuitive. The only advantage I find in Grip is that it generates the id3 tags.

    Cheers.
