Title: Two ripping processes parallel ??
Post by: bbrip on August 11, 2004, 04:40:03 pm

I am struggling to get two rip processes to run in parallel, one on my internal drive and one on an external drive. I thought this is possible but cant get it to work.

I have both drives showing up on the Drives & Devices menu but can only get one to rip at a time.

Any clues ?

Have you tried this:  Tools>options>advanced.  You can then change the number of concurrent ripping processes under the expert stuff. :)

THanks for all your efforts. Also using latest version (161) of Verison 10 MC. Also on WIndows XP SR1, settings pretty similar.

It rips one after the other (ie starts with F: drive, then does G: drive). But I never gut it to run in parallel.

If others have this problem as well, it almost sounds like a bug.

Used to work fine for me though I haven't tried it lately.
