Hey hey, I have been using Sound Juicer on my Ubuntu 24 / KDE 5 PC and it works, but it doesn’t handle the tags for my MP3 files very nicely. I’ve also used abcde, at the terminal, and that can be better but it takes a lot finessing at the CLI to get the result I want.
Is there a better CD ripper application that will run on Ubuntu and can make setting the MP3 tags dead simple?
Thanks for any ideas!
Edit: Fixed a typo
ETA: Asunder looks good, does what I need and works well on my PC. Thanks for everyone’s ideas and help!
fre:ac is almost exactly like Exact Audio Copy.
I just tried this app. When it opens, the UI is like 3x zoomed in, I can tell I’m not seeing the whole screen.
I found an open issue in their github with the same complaint. I tried both the appimage and the snapo and they both do this on my Ubunut PC. Guess I’ll have to keep looking.
I sounds like your window manager is telling the program to display with high-DPI scaling when it shouldn’t be. This is a common issue when running older software written for X11 on newer Linuxes that are using Wayland. fre:ac was originally written in 2001!
You might have a system display setting to control scaling of “legacy” (X11) applications. I know KDE Plasma does.
