Category: Tutorials Posted by Tarik, Oct 13th 2008 9:00AM

In this Winamp tutorial we show you how to Rip a CD using the Winamp Media Player. The tutorial also covers encoding options (AAC, AAC+, FLAC, WMA, WAV, etc), how to manually edit CD Information, as well as how to set your CD Ripping Preferences.

For more information you can visit the Winamp help docs and do a search on "Rip" or "Ripping". There you'll find detailed information on "Ripping Music with Winamp", "Burning Tracks to CDs", "General Preferences", & "Saving CDs to your PC".

5. “Tutorials”

This tutorial is (like most) useless! It does not say, what anything is, like VBR, (I assume its Variable Bit rate) but what is VBR Q? This so called tutorial says you can choose a multitude of parameter settings, but gives No help whatsoever on what settings to choose. On things like, the best, min and max bit rate, encoder format, or max speed for use as a standard default for any given situation. What a user can control is all that is covered but that is obvious by the existence of a control switch already. I need to know where to set the control and why. This is the standard support flaw industry wide. Product tutorials cover the obvious in redundant detail without supplying a trace of useable operational instruction. Sure the answered may be in the help file but you need to know what question you should be asking to find it. This intentional failure to communicate has caused users to have little confidence in software help files. This led to users needing the info bad enough to create independent forums to help each other and (what do you know) relieved the software developer of the majority (if not all) of their support responsibilities.

6. Bravo Scott!
I agree and have one specific (but to me - important) question. How can I convert my flacs to iTunes/iPhone (lossless - I want the best quality) format? I don't even know what options or formats are relevant. I have paid for pro version and haven't found the answer online (maybe I've missed it?) but felt intimidated by the "Don't ask until you have searched online" approach to providing support.

I have over 1000 CD's ripped to FLACs and would like to get an iPhone.

Help!!!

8. @Jennifer, there's a blog post about how to manage your iPod with Winamp - http://blog.winamp.com/2009/03/11/how-to-manage-music-in-ipod-using-winamp/

Just as a reminder... Winamp dose not natively support iPod touch or iPhone. For a full list of supported devices checkout this post - http://blog.winamp.com/2009/08/10/winamp-device-support/

11. Thankyou. I went from the frustration of not knowing how to upload a cd onto this program to understanding what ripping is. Thankyou
