Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone can help as I'm having to use other software (WMP and iTunes) to do something which my old Roxio software was very good at.

I've upgraded to EMC10 and as I've moved house, I've lost my EMC7 disc. I've tried all sorts of ways to get EMC10 to preview tracks and then highlight them for ripping but it doesn't do it. To review: The problem isn't that I can't preview tracks, all versions of EMC do this. Lets say I have a music disc containing 40 tracks. There are no track titles so its just numbered 1 through 40. There doesn't seem to be anyway to preview to them one at a time AND highlight them for ripping. With Creator Classic in EMC7 it was easy to put a check next to each track I selected and rip checked tracks at the end of the selection process. Without a checkbox, in EMC10 it seems that I have to preview tracks, and rip them one by one. I know that I can use the ctrl key to highlight multiple selections, but I'd have to already know which tracks I want, as you can't highlight a track and then move on to preview another.

Does anyone know of any way I can preview tracks and then select them one by one for ripping as described above?

Thanks

Not sure its relevant but I'm using Windows XP SP3

Music Disc Creator does all of this - what are you using?

Do you actually have the full Retail version of EMC 10 that you purchased or are you running some cut down OEM?

If I undertsand correctly what Dondadda3 wants to do then Music Disc Creator does not do it nor does any of the other programs in EMC 10.

I believe he wants to preview a song from the list and if he likes it, he wants to highlight it for ripping. He then wants to go through the rest of the songs and preview and highlight those he wants. When done he should have a list with some songs highlighted for ripping. I can't see any way of doing this

Of course its just as easy to preview each song and make a list of the desired songs and then highlight the list and rip

Thanks for the prompt responses.

I have the full version of EMC10, not a cut down OEM version. Interestingly EMC7 contained a version of Creator Classic that did exactly what I need.

Myguggi, you'v esaid that I should make a list of the songs I want to rip, do you mean that I should write them down on a piece of paper for instance? Of course I could do this, but it seems a lot like a backward step from EMC7 where a checkbox was used. In addition most competing free software (iTunes, Windows Media Player) has the checkbox to which I refer. I'm amazed that having "upgraded" I need to take a backward step. I actually just need Creator Classic from EMC7 I guess, which unfortunately, I no longer have.

With EMC 10 you of course have checkboxes to select the songs you want to rip but you can only "use" it once you know which ones to rip.
Unfortunately a few good features of earlier version have disappeared ever since Sonic bought out Roxio

I do this in Music Disc Creator…

How is this different from what you are asking?
