Anyone know how I can produce media files (WMA, MP3 etc) from an audio CD,
using .NET (specifically C#, but VB's fine).

I can't see a method to do this using interop and the Media Player SDK (you
can play, but not record).

Can't see anything in the Managed DirectX either...

Help!

Thanks for the link!

The lack of error checking is a bit worrying... any publicly available
algorthms??

Or, can someone recommend an ActiveX control for CD/DVD ripping?

Thanks,

John
 
You may want to ask the author about error checking. Note that if you have
control over the hardware your app will run on, error checking may not be
necessary (some Plextor drives, for example, don't require it).
BTW, I think that in sourceforge there's an open source CD ripper. Maybe you
can get some ideas from there.

Yes, it's called CDex, and does pretty much anything and
everything you could do with a CD. The URL is:

Kinda takes the fun out of writing your own...
