Ripping CDs in Original Wav Format - Can't Find Ripping Format Options - digiman999 - 2021-02-08
Hi Folks,
I'm using kodi-18.9-Leia-x64 on Windows 10, with the Wav Audio Encoder jmarshall-2.0.3 installed via the GUI and Advanced Settings mode activated. Audio CD ripping defaults to m4a format, but I'm wanting .wav (from the source CD; not CD->m4a->wav conversion) and there's seemingly no ripping options under either Settings->Player->Disc or HomePage->Disc. Any pointers?
Best

We don't recommend using Kodi to rip your CD's. CD Ripping has been deprecated since Kodi v16
I suggest you use Foobar2000 or Exact Audio Copy to rip your CD's TO FLAC not wav, then use MusicBrainz Picard to tag your music files correctly.
