On AllegroCDFS you can see all CDDA tracks files in Opus listers ..so use it like a normal wav or aiff file to convert to mp3 Aditional notes: Lame is the faster Mp3 encoder for the Amiga now in july/2000 and is freeware With the fast button I can make an mp3 file from a cdda or wav or aiff file (duration 4 or 5 mins) in about 8 or 9 minutes on my A1200 apollo 1266 060/66mhz Im not Amadeus Mozart but I can not see much sound diference betewen fast mormal and highquality output ..so try FAST button Lame have more functions and options but I think that you only need this 3 buttons Lame is now 10-15% faster than previous 3.70 version Have fun !
