<br />
==General Settings==<br />
* '''CD Drive.''' If you have more than one CD drive, select the tab for the device you want to edit. <br />
* '''Copy mode.''' <br />
** ''Normal.'' This is the default and fastest mode - use it unless you are having problems. <br />
** ''Secure.'' This method does multiple read passes to ensure the extracted data is correct. It will generally be half the speed of other methods and possibly much slower than that if the media is damaged or the computer is very busy doing other tasks.<br />
** ''Analog.'' If none of the digital modes work for you, you may have a CD-ROM drive that is not capable of digital ripping. In this case you can choose analog mode and set the recording volume as described below. This is the slowest ripping method and will take the same amount of time to rip a track as it would to play it. Note that analog ripping only works if your CD-ROM drive is connected to your sound card. If you can listen to audio CDs on your computer then analog ripping should work. <br />
<br />
''Analog Settings.'' If you choose analog mode for CD copying, tracks will play and record with your sound card. The recording volume should be adjusted to get adequate volume without distortion - too low and the background noise will mask the signal, too high and there will be unpleasant clipping distortion. If it's adjusted correctly, the sound may be just as good as on a digital copy. Put an audio CD in your drive and press the "Settings" button. Press the "Start Test" button and in about 90 seconds Media Center will automatically select the best volume. Or you can set the volume level yourself. <br />
* '''Read Speed. '''This is the drive speed during ripping. Normally you should leave this at Max, but if you experience problems during ripping try lowering the speed. This has no effect on some CD drive models. <br />
* '''Read offset compensation (in samples).''' For Advanced Users Only.<br />
<br />
==Auto Rip CD Database lookup options== <br />
<br />
This is used in conjunction with the program's auto-rip feature (which can be set in Tools > Options > CD. Enable Auto Rip Mode). It establishes the program's behavior when looking up track information in the [[YADB]] database.<br />
<br />
==File Management== <br />
* '''Rip to a single file with cue rather than separate files.''' Advanced user option. Select this if you need to create a single music file from an entire CD rather than creating separate files for each track. This ensures that upon playback there won't be any gaps between tracks. This is especially useful for classical music, dance mixes, or live music. When the multiple tracks are ripped to one file, Media Center creates an associated "cue" file that simply contains the start and stop times of each track within the single music file. Now Media Center can play the individual tracks by looking them up in the cue file and starting and stopping at the correct points within the single music file.<br />
* You can set Media Center to '''automatically overwrite existing files''' that have the same name. If this is unchecked (default), a number will be appended at the end of the file name, when it encounters duplicates.<br />
* You can set Media Center to '''auto-create a log file when in secure rip mode.''' This will log detailed results of the rip process. It shows where problem areas on the CD might be and tells you how confident Media Center is that a "perfect" rip was obtained. The log file is created in the same place with the same name as the ripped music file, with a ".log".<br />
<br />
==Expert Options==<br />
'''Encode on-the-fly while ripping.''' This is the fastest way of ripping a cd, but it also requires a better performance computer. If you are experiencing problems ripping cds, disable this option.<br />
'''Concurrent processes.''' You can set Media Center to rip and/or encode multiple cds or files at the same time. You can also limit the number of combined concurrent processes.</div>Gateley
