Using etch (x86) and had sound juicer set up to rip CD's to MP3 for my
Nomad which only reads MP3. Now that I've switched to Debian from
Ubuntu I haven't the repos for liblame0 from Debian. I can use
deb http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux/di...bian-multimedia
stable main

... but am uncertain is this is the best route as I don't have a public
key for that site.

How else have you all handled this MP3 ripping issue here in the
States?

Thank you,

I use that to.   Have a look at http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ for
the best mirror site four you.

I also put these two files in /etc/apt/source.list.d/ so I don't need
to edit /etc/apt/sources.list, just manage files instead.

sudo aptitude install debian-multimedia-keyring

Or do following commands
gpg --recv-keys <key number>
gpg --export | sudo apt-key add -

Thanks for writing.

I mentioned the States 'cause we have different rules for
multimedia than others and that sometimes affects how people reply.

Your instructions worked like a charm. Added gstreamer0.10-lame,
lame,and liblame0. Ripping nicely now.

I knew It would work, I do this myself with Sound Converter :D

Serious, good that it worked.  I would like to now how you added MP3
ripping to Sound Juicer though.  I use Sound Converter, which does a
good job.  But sometimes (only somtimes and mostly to other users
installations) I want to be able to rip to MP3 format (or something
else).

These are the steps:
Prefs > Format > Edit Profiles > New.

Then in New:
Profile name - put what you like, I use "mp3" (doh !)
Profile disc. - I left that blank but fill in as you like.
Gstreamer Pipeline - this is important and this works for me
audio/x-raw-int,rate=4410,channels=2 ! lame name=enc
File extension - important - mp3
Check the box "Active"

After that be certain the Output Format is set to mp3.

Thanks, will test it later.
Gstreamer solutions looks soo easy when you have the answer in front
of you, doesn't it.  Makes you feel a bit stupid

Can't say it was I who came up with all that - found it on the Net.
BTW, I learned that Sound Juicer *doesn't* do id3 or any tagging for
that matter - boo! I can see a way to deal with tagging: tagging from a
command line app like id3v2 (have yet to try it) or use grip. Plus,
if you have other tunes or sounds in another format, like WAV for
example, SoundConverter can change them to MP3 or one of several
other formats. One catch tho' is that SC will change the format of a
file which has no tagging but the file will be a zero byte file. So,
don't delete those reformatted WAV to MP3 which have no taggs or
you'll have nothing useful to listen to - um, as I learned the hard
way.

It tag OGG-files all right, from MusicBrainz.org.  Works like a
charm.  Might take a look at gstreamer to see if it could be done for
MP3 too.

I have tested some graphical ID-tools, which one works realy good.
Have to look what that was, as I don't have that computer here (It
wasn't my computer).
Ok, I might continue to SJ to OGG-format and then use SC to convert to
MP3-format then.

Good luck

That's an excellent idea ! I'll try that and report my findings.

Yes, works fine ... now I have 6GB of CD to re-rip and convert, but
at least they'll be in proper order. Think I'll do the deed little by
little tho' 

Thanks for mentioning it !
