I used Grip under FC3 and loved it, but can't get it to work properly under FC4.
All the mp3 compatible encoders respond with an error "invalid encoder executable, check your encoder config". The config looks OK as far as I can tell.
The only encoders that work are Ogg Vobis and Bladeenc. I can get bladeenc to produce a file with an .mp3 extension, but the mp3 player chokes because the files is still an ogg vobis file. I just don't see how to get an mp3 format file to satisfy the player.
I also noticed the following error when I run Grip from a terminal window : (grip:3176): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)
Not really sure where to fix this one. I will look into it some more, but if anyone is familiar with it and can point the right direction it would save me some time.

I prefer grip myself...I think fc4 may rip out a lot of support for mp3 because of the license though...might have to roll your own or use a 3rd party repository to install grip.

Any suggestions for software for ripping CD's?
I am using FC4 and the packaged ripping app's all have bugs in them.
My biggest criteria is that my mp3 player does not recognize .ogg files so I would prefer it generate .mp3 files.
