EAC ripped files question

Thanks Jaybe. You are right, I don't need the codec stated. The only reason I mentioned it was because my media player shows it but I realize that is not important. I'm going to try that later today.

Open a file in a tagging program and read it that way. 

You can send an email to Andre at eac@exactaudiocopy.org and/or check the forum http://www.digital-inn.de/forums/exact-audio-copy-english.14/

To my knowledge - and I could be wrong here - the program is NOT writing *all* of that type/kind of meta data to the file itself. I don’t even recall if all of the data you’re looking for is written to the log file.

Realistically though, why would you need to know what codec was used? If it was 12 years ago it’s likely outdated (superseded by a more recent version, etc.) anyway.

Yes, that is the process for my new or soon to be ripped CDs.  What I want to know is, what name scheme I used on the songs that I ripped 12 yrs ago. Is there a way to open one of those music files in Windows and see what I did way back then? Thank you for your response.

Go to EAC Options > Filename tab. Naming scheme is there. In the naming scheme field add in whatever you need from the list below it. 

Song title, Artist, Album, Track #  etc can all be done with the metadata provider you select in the metadata options area. Why do you need the codec? The file extension will tell you how it was coded- flac, mp3 etc.

There is no "command line" per se nowadays unless you use a different front end or no front end.

Hi Jaybe,
I'm using EAC but i need to set the command line for the tags. For example; Song title, Artist, Album, Track #, Codec used. Is there a way to see the order I used in my previously ripped files?

What command line? Use EAC or another quality ripper.
