It worked fine with Fedora 7 and 6, and when I switched from F7 to F9, grip freezes my system when I want to play a CD. It extracts just fine. I have another pb but with XMMS and Fedora 9. Xmms, if I want to stop it playing a song, or when I want to jump to another song, it freezes my system and I have to reboot. I've used xmms for years before, and to me, it's my big regret with fedora9. > Regardless, with Sound Juicer it is more opaque to do but you should > certainly be able to change your mp3 encoding profile to produce > better output just as easily either by improving the default VBR > quality by changing the gst pipeline to be: > > audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=0 > vbr-quality=0 ! id3v2mux > > Strangely enough lower vbr-quality number is better ...

It would help, certainly ;-) Francois -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
