Hi guys,
Anyone old like me who still likes to buy music CDs, but young enough where I want to rip perfect flac files from them? My tool of choice has been exact audio copy for like, ever.
I realized this weekend it’s the only windows software left that I still boot into windows for. Used to be the odd game here and there that didn’t work in linux, but even that has stopped.
Anyways - I’m looking for all the bells and whistles. It handles gaps correctly, can create cue sheets, does error correction, and ultimately allows me to make a 100% backup of a music CD (I can take a blank CD and make a perfect copy of the original). Anything in the AUR that does this? Anyone have success running EAC with proton/wine etc and can offer some tips? Thanks.
I know this is the arch community, so this might not apply, but KDE’s Dolphin file manager has audio CD ripping integrated, with different folders being shown for different formats when you open an audio CD (like, “audio CD” has subfolders called “mp3” or “flac”), so you can just copy those files somewhere and it rips and encodes them in the background.
