sebastianbf Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 HelloI'm trying to import the Interpol Antics cd (original) into SS 3.4 but it doesn't recognize that the cd is inserted in my computer. I've tried to transfer the CD to my Himd using Simple Burner and everything goes ok. So it's a problem with SS. Any of you have had this same problem?

danielbb90 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I haven't no...But have you tryed riping the files into wav and then inporting them into sonicstage?Thats the only other option I can think of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastianbf Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Thanks for the fast reply. I was thinking: What if I transfer the album in PCM via SimpleBurner to my HIMD and then download the PCM files to SS so I can encode the files to ATRAC 352 and then transfer again to the HIMD? Would it be a "clean" transfer process or encoding the songs too many times will affect the final quality of them ? (comparing to import a cd in wav in SS and then transfer it to himd at 352kbps) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Low Volta Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 why such a difficult traject sebastian? just rip your CD with EAC (exact audio copy) and import the wavs into SS and convert to whatever bitrate A3+ you like (ok, you will need to title the tracks manually, but for one CD that's nothing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I have had this issue with a few copy-protected cd's that SS doesn't like, but Simple Burner just munches straight through them.It depends on the bitrate you want to have these at on your unit (ie. if it is one supported by SB then just use this) otherwise if you want to convert to 352 for example (or another bitrate not supported by SB) Volta's suggestion is probably the better one.

So you don't convert to get them! Edited March 29, 2006 by danielbb90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastianbf Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 (edited) thanks for all the replies boys. Silly me I didn't think of ripping the cd with EAC and then import in SS. Thanks for the tip Volta. Edited March 29, 2006 by sebastianbf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
