It was very close that this version should have been named Audiograbber 1.83 but since it does not have any GUI changes I decided to name it 1.82 build 2. It certainly has some good improvements!  What users will benefit most from is probably that is supports Windows digital playback (under Windows 2000 and XP). There is no longer a need to have an audio wire between the soundcard and the CD-ROM drive if Windows has been setup to use digital playback for the drive. Read more about that option in the helpfile under Digital playback. (And see "Extra settings in the ini file" part of the helpfile for a useful spin down drive speed function). Another good thing with this version is that it supports USB drives under Windows 2000 and XP. The third major update is support for more CD-ROM drives with CDG (karaoke) ripping. I found out that some drives can deliver correct CDG packets and that is what Audiograbber 1.82 supported. Some other drives can not do that but instead they can deliver raw RW subcodes data. These subcodes can be converted into CDG packets (That's called deinterleaving). Very few programs can do this deinterleaving thing and read the CDG part of karaoke discs if the drive does not internally convert the RW subcodes to CDG packets. AG 1.82 build 2 will autodetect if the drive can only read raw RW subcodes and deinterleave the subcodes itself and create correct CDG packets. This build 2 is also better to handle copy protected discs with some Plextor drives. And there has been two bugfixes:
The first bugfix corrects that AG 1.82 did not set a correct ID3 genre tag sometimes when the genre came from freedb. The second bugfix is that there is no longer an error message if there is a zip drive without a disc in the computer. Registed users can upgrade from

I have been using Audiograbber for a long time now, and I can't believe the fantastic quality of the mp3 and ogg files that I get from using this program (w/Lame for mp3's)! It sure is worth the price!

Interesting!!! Selecting Line In Sampling on this one immediately reboots the computer (Win2000).Al

Strange. This does not happen on my computers and I have not heard of it either. Did you try AG 1.82 build 2 and did it happen there? Or which was the last version you tried on that computer when this error did not happen?

Should I assume that if I just downloaded the full version that it is the 1.82 Build 2? I doesn't say this in "About". Just says 1.82. Thanks. I love Audiograbber. Ron

It may seem odd to some, but the version number is not under "Help|About...", it is under "Help|System information...".

It was/is build 2. Happened about 6 times. If I ripped a CD first, and then tried a line-in sample it was okay. However, today it seems to be working as it should. I guess this is one of those "hard to explain" happenings. I'll try and keep track of what is done or not done when if it happens again.

I always use the oggenc.exe.
And with the exe version audiograbber has no effect on tghe encoding speed.Maybe this is also for the dll version but I don't kow that.

HelloI also experience many "blue screens and automatic reboots (Win XP)" when I launch Audiograbber. I changed my computer 2 weeks ago (now I have a Toshiba Satellite 2450-114); maybe that's the reason why??

That error must happen in the communication between Audiograbber and the CD-ROM drive. Not sure why though.Go to http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net/faq.html and get Adaptecs ASPI manager. Install that one and add this line to your audiograbber.ini file:
LoadNTCalls=False Hopefully that helps.

Isn't the latest adaptec drivers inferior to the older ones? Aren't the versions 4.60 as found in forceaspi better? I've had less problems with this one. The latest ones from Adaptec though...they act strange.  ------------------

(ForceASPI 4.60 is better in most cases, but that one is not for free as 4.7x, and Jackie being the official Audiograbber staff can not recommend people downloading illegal software. I, on the other hand, have no problems with that!  The 4.7x however should work, so one can try that first and if it fails, remove it with ForceASPI and install the older version)------------------

KevinB52379: i though so too :-)
But none of 4.7Xxx version worked to me!Personally i stopped on Nero ASPI layer as simpliest and best for w2k. http://www.nero.com/en/content/c1023694368810.html#11 schrikg: yes, it is about libVorbis.dll from 1.82.b2
i prefer it rather than separate exe because of russian tags in songs. BTW i failed to make AG 1.82b2 work with vorbis.dll ether from AG1.80b4 nor from OGG SDK 1.0rc3 latest libvorbis.dl do not help - guess it is AG's glitvh :-(((
