Additionally you need the myhtpc.cfg for configuring fonts and buttons color:

Save this code as myhtpc.cfg in same directory as the plugin :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration Version="21">
	<General>
		<Display MainTitle="My HTPC" TitleSafeArea="5" Pointer="hide" BackButton="True" LeftGoesBack="True" RightAdvances="True" LanguageFile="D:\Programme\myHTPC\myHTPCt.str" SlideshowTSA="no" X="0" Y="0" Width="0" Height="0" DisableScreenSaver="no" Wrap="no" HotTrack="yes" Taskbar="show">
			<DefaultTheme BackgroundColor="" BackgroundFile="">
				<TitleFont Name="Arial Black" Size="30" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</TitleFont>
				<SubTitleFont Name="Arial" Size="20" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</SubTitleFont>
				<FooterFont Name="Arial Black" Size="16" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</FooterFont>
				<MainMenuFont Name="Arial Black" Size="20" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</MainMenuFont>
				<SubMenuFont Name="Arial Black" Size="18" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</SubMenuFont>
				<CaptionFont Name="Arial Black" Size="16" Style="">
					<FontColor A="255" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				</CaptionFont>
				<FrameColor A="127" R="255" G="255" B="255"/>
				<SelectedFrameColor A="204" R="0" G="128" B="0"/>
			</DefaultTheme>
		</Display>
		</General>
</Configuration>

.

Unzip, install mycdrip in your plugin directory.

I added the button in mymusicxxxx.xml.

<control>
				<description>CD RIP</description>
				<type>button</type>
				<id>378</id>
				<posX>30</posX>
				<posY>335</posY>
				<label>CD RIP</label>
				<onleft>9</onleft>
				<onright>50</onright>
				<onup>9</onup>
				<ondown>2</ondown>
				<application>D:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\myCDRip\mycdrip.exe</application> 
				<arguments>-cddbchoice -auto -format="mp3" -bitrate="192" -pathtoenc="d:\media\audio" -filename="\%ARTIST%\%ALBUM%\%TRACKNB% - %TRACKNAME%"</arguments>

in the mycdrip.ini you can assign key and background picture.

thats it!

Enjoy ;-)

Oliver-h,
I don't understand this part:

I added the button in mymusicxxxx.xml.

Code:


<control>
<description>CD RIP</description>
<type>button</type>
<id>378</id>
<posX>30</posX>
<posY>335</posY>
<label>CD RIP</label>
<onleft>9</onleft>
<onright>50</onright>
<onup>9</onup>
<ondown>2</ondown>
<application>D:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\myCDRip\mycdrip.exe</application>
<arguments>-cddbchoice -auto -format="mp3" -bitrate="192" -pathtoenc="d:\media\audio" -filename="\%ARTIST%\%ALBUM%\%TRACKNB% - %TRACKNAME%"</arguments>

Can you explain what how you add the button and where it appears?

kk mymusicxxx.xml mean : let say you want this button shown in album view, then edit mymusicalbum.xml
in mymusicalbums (mce) edit:

[...]
<control>
				<description>Search button</description>
				<type>button</type>
				<id>8</id>
				<posX>60</posX>
				<posY>233</posY>
				<label>137</label>
				<onleft>8</onleft>
				<onright>50</onright>
				<onup>7</onup>
				<ondown>10</ondown>
			</control>
			<control>
				<description>Eject Disc</description>
				<type>button</type>
				<id>10</id>

				[color=red]<ondown>378</ondown>[/color]
			</control>
[color=green]<control> 
<description>CD RIP</description> 
<type>button</type> 
<id>378</id> 
<posX>30</posX> 
<posY>335</posY> 
<label>CD RIP</label> 
<onleft>9</onleft> 
<onright>50</onright> 
<onup>9</onup> 
<ondown>2</ondown> 
<application>D:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\myCDRip\mycdrip.exe</application> 
<arguments>-cddbchoice -auto -format="mp3" -bitrate="192" -pathtoenc="d:\media\audio" -filename="\%ARTIST%\%ALBUM%\%TRACKNB% - %TRACKNAME%"</arguments> 
</control>
[/color]
</control>

this put a new button, under the others.
the redmarked <on down> tag must be changed as shown, so the new button get active wenn pressing down on played/All albums button.


Is your question answered ?

Just tested, works nicely. I really like the possibility of parametering encoder, bitrate and genre with remote friendly action.

This should be a plugin of MediaPortal !

Anyone knows the author, he gives the sources of his program (in pascal I think) so maybe he's interested in Open Source and Media Portal. We should contatc him to see if an integration in MP is possible and if he wants to do it.

In any case with a proper background, font, this is allready a nice addition to Mediaportal.

The author seems to be no more active , his last post on myhtpc forum is from July,. I sent him 2 e-mails, but he didn't even read them.

I also spoke with frodo, who means he wants to programm an own plugin, but in the meantime, I think mycdrip will just be fine

Too bad.

Too good Really a great news.

Little bug with mycdrip. I don't know if you have this one, when the application is launched I'm able to change the bitrate and the type of encoding (ogg, mp3) but when I change the genre the files are ripped in the first genre chosen at startup (with or without cddbchoice).

And also, that's weird when mportal is running mycdrip doesn't show any tracks...

Hi all,
Well, i'm the developper of myCDRip (sorry for my bad english, i'm a french user )
I'm really sorry for the unanswered mail, forgive me.

I can give you the complete source of myCDRip, it's free and GPL licenced.
I've coded this plugin in delphi language, but sadly i'm very busy in my work and i can't maintain anymore the job.

the link for the source code is :
http://cyberbobjr.free.fr/myCDRip_sources.zip

But beware, i'm not a professionnal, the code is bad, ugly and undocumented.
But i can help you as max as i can....

Bye.

@cyberbobjr : I'm very glad to see you're still alive and want me to thank you for your tool. (Je suis content de voir que tu es tjrs present et te remercie pour ce precieux petit utilitaire)
Je me disais juste que, probablement, tu serais la personne la mieux placee pour integrer rapidement ton utilitaire, mais bon, comme tu n'a pas le temps :/. Merci quand meme d'avoir repondu!
Molokoids: no idea ^^
Hopefuly we will find some1 that do the job

How can I release the CD drive???

I tried to install mycdrip with mediaportal [0.2.0] and then I tried with the latest CVS. It doesn't work, it would seem that mediaportal is keeping the CD drive and not releasing it. So mycdrip cannot access it.

Mycdrip doesn't work well on my windows XP: it rips the 1st song, then skips all the other one and write 0kb files... odd

Anyone with the same problem???

Thanks.
