Hi, i'm new to the whole using wapet program. I have it unzipped in my eac folder. I'm trying to use it for my ape files, as well as my tak files.
I located wapet in the correct path, however in the additional comand line options i put:
%d -t "Artist=%a" -t "Title=%t" -t "Album=%g" -t "Year=%y" -t "Track=%n" -t "Genre=%m" "R:\Program Files\Exact Audio Copy\MAC.exe"%s %d -c2000
This does not work for me, i get an error.
I found this to be the only fucntional way to get MAC to work with wapet,
%d -t "Artist=%a" -t "Title=%t" -t "Album=%g" -t "Year=%y" -t "Track=%n" -t "Genre=%m" mac.exe %s %d -c4000

Can anyone tell me whats wrong with my first option? Did i miss something...

Could it be that there is no space between \MAC.exe" and %s?
Paws
greynol, thanks man. That one space is all i needed. I copied that exact comand line from here , just changed it around a little bit.http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?ti...d_Monkeys_Audio
Once again thanks.
greynol
Glad to be of help. smile.gif

Luckily it was this easy!
Paws
Luckly it was for me lol, thanks. I have a new problem that i dont recall having before. When i compress my files with anyformat, and EAC extraction beeps and i click ok, i can see that the encoder is still compressing, even though EAC said it was done and i clicked ok. Is this normal? I don't recall having this problem.
greynol
Yeah, I think that's normal. The beep indicates when it finishes extracting, not when it's finished encoding, I guess (I have the little bugger disabled).
Paws
Thanks again greynol. I suppose it's normal too then. I must have never sat a waitied for a cd to be done, usually just left and came back and then it was done. Take care, oh if anyone else can confirm this that'd be great.

EDIT: i dont thing that this is right. I just now notice a minute or 2 etc, after i select ok i see the encoder still encoding files, i think this is rather strange.
greynol
No, I'm 100% certain this is normal; though you might want to verify EAC Options > Tools > "On extraction, start external compressors queued in the background" setting is selected and you may safely enter the same number for multiple threads as the number of processors/cores in your system.

Again, it is normal for the Status and Error Messages dialog to pop up before the encoding has finished (EDIT: regardless of when the setting I just suggested you verify is enabled).
Paws
Thanks again greynol, i had "On extraction, start external compressors queued in the background" checked, i unchecked and that must of been the way i used to rip cd's because that don't have that problem. I have now gone back to checking "On extraction, start external compressors queued in the background" <--- that explains the encode process after eac is done. And i just now found out that EAC has a forum and sorry for posting this here. take care
greynol
No problem. Thanks for the clarification about the behavior when the setting is disabled. I edited my previous response to reflect this. Maybe I'll see you over at Digital-Inn sometime. smile.gif
