brachoza Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 they have to be in the normal cd format to rip to the hd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eap0108 Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Which means only about 20 songs on a disc. I tried the same thing and thought you could rip MP3 onto the Z1...But nada! can't do it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MIUWDOGG Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 mp3s CANNOT be ripped to the HD. And search is your friend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Damageinc333 Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I havent tested this, but I think I read on here that you can burn DVD-Audio discs, which fit more songs, and you can rip to the HDD with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cirbirus Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 In addition: converting from mp3 to a regular audio CD then ripping to the HD of the Z1 will make the files so low quality you won't want to listen to them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bdmpastx Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 ^^^^not true. It depends on the bitrate that they were encoded at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cirbirus Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 ^^^^ That's like me saying, "Don't run your car into a bridge, you'll kill yourself." And you saying, "Not true, it depends on how fast you're going." Um, yeah... If you want to get technical it actually depends on the quality of your stereo too, and your amps, and your speakers, and your speaker wire, and your power, and your ground isolation, and the codecs you use, and the audio software you use, and if your computer crashes in the middle of ripping to audio, and if your little brother plugs in his Mr. Microphone to your computer while ripping/burning, etc. So, let me update my statement: Generally speaking, audio tracks that are ripped from a commercial audio CD to MP3's then burned back to an audio CD and then re-ripped to the Z1 [b]generally[/b] sound horrible and you won't want to listen to them... generally. And as you know most people's collections do not come from rips they did personally but from the Internets so they have no control over the quality of the rip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
