hello, the man page of cdda2wav explains how to copy an audio CD from a pipe. ok, the commands: cdda2wav dev=ATA:1,0,0 -vall cddb=0 -info-only cdda2wav dev=ATA:1,0,0 -no-infofile -B -Oraw - | \ cdrecord dev=ATA:1,1,0 -v -dao -audio -useinfo -text *.inf work fine. Is there someone who knows if it's possible to do the same with cdparanoia ? My trials are unsucessfull ;-) TIA -- Gerard
