This is an advanced CD ripper and encoder software that can be used through command-line. It is designed to provide users with a high level of functionality and flexibility when it comes to ripping and encoding audio CDs.
Using ACRipper is simple, just insert your CD in the device and type "acripper" at the prompt. If no CDDB server information is found, ACRipper will try to read CD info from an already available titles.txt file. You can force ACRipper to use a file with the -f [file] option. If no [file] argument is provided, ACRipper tries to use titles.txt. In any case, if no information could be retrieved from freedb.org and no file is found either, then tracks' names are autogenerated.
ACRipper comes with the following options: -e flac|ogg|mp3, -f [file], and -n. Option -n is used to append a counter to the output file names, which is useful to force ogg players to play tracks in the original CD sequence.
To use titles.txt or any CD info file, start at line 1 with the artist name followed by title, genre, track1, track2, and so on.
Here are a few examples of how to use ACRipper:
Invoke ACRipper to first try to use CDDB server. If no info is available, titles.txt will be read:
> acripper
Force ACRipper to read CD info from titles.txt:
> acripper -f
Force ACRipper to read CD info from cdinfo.txt:
> acripper -f cdinfo.txt
Encode to FLAC and read CD info from cdinfo.txt:
> acripper -e flac -f cdinfo.txt
Overall, ACRipper is a versatile and useful tool for anyone looking to rip and encode CDs with minimal hassle. Its compatibility with various file formats and ability to read CD info from various sources makes it a top pick for those looking for a reliable CD ripper.
