Ripping CD not working [Solved]
JimH:
It's the encoder that seems to be the problem. What is it? Try ripping to WAV, just as a test. If that works, try FLAC.
Antivirus software causes a lot of odd problems.

You did not answer Jim's question...

If it is indeed .wma, and you must have that, see here...

This option, with those files, still work for me here with MC 27 and Windows 10 20H2
AlexS:
OK so I rebooted into another Windows 10 instance on the same PC (I run multiboot), I'm running 19041.572.
Window update is up to date, bitdefender antivirus is fully uninstalled (I rebooted again), Windows defender realtime scan is off. I have exactly the same issue.
I am normally ripping to FLAC and it has worked fine until now.
I tried "Wavpack" and "MP3 Encoder" - same issue.
However it works with Windows Media, so I guess that provides a clue (see attached), although I haven't worked out what to do.
I will try to see what happens on my other PC (a laptop) when I can.
Thanks

I tried uncompressed wave and that kinda worked, some tracks would not playback and I noticed some 0kb files...
So I decided to change the destination of the ripped files, presently it's on my server via UNC path, I changed it to a local hard drive, and BINGO, I can rip to FLAC without issues. So it's some issue with the destination - but why! I'm not out of disk space.
So I decided to put the UNC path back in, I type in \\myserver\music\cd and click OK, the dialogue box closes, however the entry does not change! (Still a local path that I put in).
I can easily browse that UNC path via file explorer. I tried to delete the cached passwords on the local machine, rebooted the PC and my server, recached the password, no change in behaviour... even tried running it as admin....
hmmm.....
AlexS:
So I restored the library from a backup, that brought back the UNC server path and the original error.
Changing to local drive makes it work again, but then I can't change back to the UNC path.
And there we have it - not sure what to do now.
