Great package
by Tristan Miller - Jan 11th 2004 07:32:23
I use Grip for all my CD ripping; it's excellent. However, it would be
nice if the developers would fix some of the long-standing bugs (i.e.,
several years old), such as the fact that the encoder command-line
settings are not preserved; they're reset to hard-coded defaults whenever
the encoder is changed. Even so these problems aren't enough to stop me
from recommending the program to others.

Fine job!
by Apollyon - Sep 19th 2002 12:46:48
Grip is an excellent, industrial strength tool that I would recommend to
anyone looking to encode mp3s in a GUI environment. Fine job!

This is what they want!
by Veghead - Apr 28th 2002 06:36:08
It's quality software like this that will make Linux et al acceptable with
ordinary punters.
Not only does it look great, it does exactly what you want from a
ripper and is so easy to use. Everything about it is so rightous! This is
what they want!

Grip is definitely easy to use and works ten times better than any windows
app.

This is great!!
by Tobtoh - Feb 1st 2001 03:08:27
For the past 12 months I have been trying various MP3 GUI encoders. All of
them have been substandard to varying degrees ... until now! Grip is easy
to install, easy to use, and looks great. Highly recommended!

I love it...

Grip works fine, and has a very nice and easy GUI to
rip, encode and very nice cddb functions.
It's a must for everybody who likes to convert his cds or wav files to
mp3 .... :-)

No-no-no-no-no, better drop MP3 format on the floor. That plain.
Ogg Vorbis is *far* superior -- so don't make yourself weep in a year over
those ugly mp3s when you could've done that as .ogg. I personally had to
find those CDs again and redo my exercises :-)

Of 'course grip can also do ogg vorbis. The only reason that I
don't use it yet, is that my hardware-mp3 player can't do ogg.

Nice GUI.
by Mohammad Bahathir Hashim - Apr 1st 2000 11:05:52
Nice GUI frontend for CD ripper (cdparanoia) and MP3 encoder (lame).
We can do it also on CLI using below 1 line command, and we can
rip+encode CD very easy.
cdparanoia 1 - | lame --preset cd - track1.mp3
Means: cdparanoia rip CD's track 1 and pipe it to stdout, catched by
lame and encode it to file track1.mp3 with CD quality preset options
setting (44.1 kHz sample rate, 192 kHz bit rate).
Anyway, grip is very promising program and have alot of potential too.

Grip
by djm - Feb 5th 2000 21:09:50
I think I looked at every mp3 ripper front end for Linux, and this one
seems to be the best. Being able to rip and encode simultaneously is a
big win, especially on a multiprocessor system like I have.

Faster than Reboot
by Lispy - Dec 12th 2002 11:21:56
I wanted to rip a cd and was wondering if i wanted to reboot into win2k for
that job. It took me about 1,5 mins to grap the Slackware Pkg over at
linuxpackages.net, install it, start it and make my fav settings. It
turned out to be faster than a reboot. This is really the ripper you
want.
cu,
Lispy

Works great...
by Concord - Jan 9th 2000 09:34:37
Compiled from source with built-in support for cdparanoia
on the rip side and used bladeenc on the encoder side. Does a very
excellent job of ripping and encoding at the same time. Easy to use
interface. I definately recommend this for any MP3
enthusiast!

Well, I just downloaded the src.rpm and tried to
recompile it here under RH 7.1. Had a small problem
in that the recompile would bomb trying to locate the
man pages. I verified that the man pages ARE there
in the build directory, however, RPM wasn't seeing
them because they are gzipped and RPM isn't
looking for the *.gz file. So I changed the spec file
and Voila'! it works! :-) Anyway, I've sent a "fixed"
spec file to the author. Maybe he'll release a new
version of the SRC.RPM. :-)

Bladeenc definitely looses to LAME. And both loose to oggenc, even when
LAME is top-quality MP3 encoder.

ogg requires more CPU to decode, besides that ogg rules. Ive not used the
ID3 information in ogg yet. Still have that to learn.
Ill say this though. I would have prefered the author to use %t_%n as the
default output format, and perhaps a different extension for OGG, XMMS
went crazy playin a .ogg as .mp3! Not a big deal but would make the
package a little tidier. It all compiled find from sources.
