Hmm...I'm sure there's something obvious here that I missing. I've been using audiograbber to rip mp3's for some time now. Today when I went to use it, odd things occured. When I press the the GRAB button to make an mp3, it freezes for a moment, then it plays the song for a moment, and then it finishes, having created an empty 1kb file. I downloaded 1.83 thinking that might help...but not yet. What am I missing here? Thanks very much for your help! -todd http://bartlebymusic.com

Small update here...This time...It played the whole song and created a silent but static speckled mp3. It normally does not play when it encodes. Please help! Thanks!

Try reinstalling an ASPI layer. Search Google for Force ASPI, installing it following the instructions.------------------ Tom My Audiograbber Guides

Thanks for your response.I'm sorry to report... I downloaded the software and installed it... Same response. Sometimes...it clicks right over and creates a 1kb files...and others...it plays the track through and create a noise ridden file. I've used this software so many times with no problems. ugh! :-) Any other suggestions? Thank you! -todd

Problem solved. Wow...Under General Settings, CD-Rom access mode was set to Analog and NOT ASPI. I don't even know what any of this means or how it got switched. What is the default? But I clicked ASPI and it's encoding just fine now. Thanks for your help! -todd

Analog was going to be my next suggestion but your description did get me thinking about an aspi error due to the size of the outputted mp3 file and that there wasa freeze.The default should be ASPI - analog is from a time when PC's were slow and cumbersome when it came to PC ripping. Not sure if anyone uses it now. ------------------ Tom My Audiograbber Guides
