Can anyone recommend CD ripping software please?

I am setting up a NAS drive linked through time capsule and want to burn the highest quality lossless audio tracks from CDs to be played through a naim unitiqute and naim pre-amplifier and power amplifier HiFi system, controlled on naim's nStream app for iOS
The software will run on an early intel iMac (Mountain Lion)
What file format should I use? I would also like to import these into iTunes so I don't have to burn new CD's

XLD is the ripping tool most people seem to use. It won't give you any better quality than iTunes if the rip goes well, but since XLD has access to AccurateRip and does more verbose reporting of errrors, you'll be more likely to know if a rip doesn't go through properly.
As to file format, your choices would be either AIFF or Apple Lossless. Apple Lossless will give you CD quality at about half the file size of AIFF, so I'd suggest you use Apple Lossless.
Regards.

  • Can anyone recommend online flatplan software

    can anyone recommend online flatplan software where several users can update and view the flatplan online and place pdfs of finished pages please?

    Unlike MacGunt, I have used Bento and love it. With the little bit of work I did at IBM using M$ Access, I found Bento to be head and shoulders above it. Access always seemed kludgy to me at best whereas Bento is an honest to goodness database manager.
    Seeing as how I retired now I don't have any business usage for it but I do it find it very useful for the club work I need to do.
    Two features I like are the templates which cover a broad range of database usage. I would think that one of those would be able to help you get started with your business needs. The other is the app which allows me to have the Bento database on my iPhone.

  • Can anyone recommend a lightbox software that is completely 508 compliant?

    Can anyone recommend a truly 508 compliant lightbox software? By that I mean, you can access the lightbox with the keyboard only (no mouse action at all), i.e. you can tab through the lightbox gallery, access any links for more info within the pop up box, close the last box in the gallery, not have the screen reader read all the html in addition to captions, and make sure that the screenreader knows there is a lightbox there and announces it.
    I bought Ajatix Lightbox v.3.1.6.0 plug in for Dreamweaver as it said it was 508 compliant. It makes beautiful lightboxes but it has some problems in that I cannot close the last lightbox in the gallery without tabbing through the rest of the site and landing back on the page link and reloading the page. Also accessing a link within the pop up is just as problematic. You have to tab through the rest of the site again until it lands on the link. Long winded. Perhaps this is as good as it gets? I've been back and forth with Ajatix who have tried to help but there doesn't seem to be a clear cut way to make these items easier.
    Just thought I'd ask to see if anyone else had run into this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Focus is the main problem in Modal Windows.  I think that unless you have the skills to code your own, it's probably best to avoid them.

  • Can anyone recommend a recovery software for my mac mail?

    I had to recreate a new email account and in doing so I guess my older (more than 7 days) emails have all been deleted. Has anyone used receovery software for the mac?

    Well, prevention is always better than cure - do you have any backup system? (And if not, I strongly recommend you set something up - Time Machine is automatic, frequent, and part of OS X; it only requires an external hard drive or Time Capsule).
    Second, most email services now have IMAP functionality, meaning that all mail can be stored on the server - this reduces the chance of losing email. So check with your mail provider if you can set up IMAP and what the server settings would be.
    As to your specific question, I personally have used Data Rescue successfully, but you do need to run it quickly after you lose data (the more you use the computer, the more the "deleted" filespace is written over, potentially losing files permanently). You can download a trial for free to see if your files can be recovered before you pay. You do need an additional drive to store recoveed files to.
    good luck!

  • Can anyone recommend a tracking software for my laptop? thank you.

    I have seen a number of programmes on stolen laptops and how the police use tracking software loaded onto a laptop to find stolen goods.  The problem I am having is getting a good product, not necessarily for free that is trusted and recommended.
    Anyone have any experience of using this software?  Thanks for any advice.

    Not a recommendation, I'm just aware of the software.  They have Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android clients

  • Hi, Can anyone recommended software to import dvd to iMovies. I need to import about a dozen homemade DVD's and edit them into a single DVD comprising the 'best bits'. How best can I do this. I have an external hard drive available for the job

    Hi, Can anyone recommended software to import dvd to iMovies. I need to import about a dozen homemade DVD's and edit them into a single DVD comprising the 'best bits'. How best can I do this. I have an external hard drive available for the job

    You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    which is free, but you must also have the  Apple mpeg2 plugin :
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
    (unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
    which is a mere $20.
    Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
    http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
    which costs $25.
    For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
    Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
    And from the TOU of these forums:
    Keep within the Law
    No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
    Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
    If you are running Lion or later:
    From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
    The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion onwards, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
    To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
    The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. (The same applies to Mountain Lion even though that has it preinstalled.) You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

    Mpegstreamclip is good software with a lot of great features but may be more than most people need.

  • Can anyone recommend easy to use, cheap, storyboarding software. Thanks.

    Can anyone recommend easy to use, cheap, storyboarding software. Thanks.

    Actually, the software I've seen that does this is pretty cumbersome, and since we require a storyboard at the school I teach a class or two at, the students I teach have tried many... they still end up drawing them; they say it's a lot easier.
    However http://www.storyboardartist.com/artist.html seems to be the most popular. http://www.atomiclearning.com/storyboardpro has a freebie... if you type Storyboard Software in google... ya get a pile of them. might look for some demos?

    I found a few with google, but it appears to be hours or days between responses on the "active" threads... is presume there's livelier one out there somewhere.
