How to reconfigure this that REACT will create both FLAC image and MP3 files?

If you have followed the instructions correctly, then i'm guessing that acdir throws a dependency error(msvcr71.dll)...

Try to run acdir through a command-prompt(in '%programfiles%\REACT2\tools' by default) and see if it works or not...

If it works, then post your ini...

In latest beta(2.0.akku.b03), then changing the ripping directory in EAC after doing CTRL+F2 dosen't have any effect, since EAC changes and uses the 'DirectorySpecification' regkey, while with REACT then the 'ActualPath' regkey is used instead for determining ripping directory.

Personally, then i would suggest to change it back as the way Neil had done it with the CTRL+F2  synching of ripping directories, as the new scheme IMHO dosen't make much sence even if it worked right, i mean, why ignoring the EAC defined ripping directory in favor of My Music???

Also, i understand that the syntax of the CFGs is done with the old metamp3 in mind, but then isn't e.g. this wrong in the image cfg(new metamp3 beta syntax):

SET Disc_MP3=--frame "TXXX[setsubtitle]:@discname@"

The only software I installed since I last ran EAC/REACT2 successfully was an update to Daemon Tools which I have subsequently uninstalled..

With regard to UPC/ISRC: Uncheck the relevant (uppermost) checkbox on the "Tools" tab of the "EAC Options" dialogue (F9 to open).

When EAC is trying to rip cd... It runs everal time through UPC/ISRC...

I don't understand what's the problem here. There is a "REM" line above that line, why it's like that, I dunno. Synthetic Soul, do you have information about this?

Actually it's not REACT which reads/uses the "ActualPath" value when starting ripping, it's EAC itself and it's stupid mess of using two regkeys in different situations (tracks vs. image mode).

The synching of these 2 regkey values are still present, it just that the synching does take place only when configuring REACT (just like in the original REACT), and after the "DirectorySpecification" value has been changed. EAC itself synchs these when you close EAC/REACT.. so no need to manually edit the registry.

REACT needs to set a default directory (for the temp files) because the EAC standard directory can't be set to "ask every time" and a valid directory must be then used in EAC settings, and the users my music directory is a safe choice. Believe me, it MUCH easier to do it like this (vs. looking for the current setting and verifying that it's a valid directory etc. problems)..

I don't understand what's the problem here. There is a "REM" line above that line, why it's like that, I dunno. Synthetic Soul, do you have information about this?

Edit: still one problem.  Why does REACT now dont create in FLAC folder image with this naming: $artist$ - [$year$] $album$. It creates only $artist" - $album$ with no year...



My old files look like this:

ImageNaming=$artist$ - [$year$] $album$

I believe that it's the DTools SPTD (SCSI Pass Through Direct) driver. It's not uninstalled when you uninstall DTools normally.

Anyone? Why REACT now dont create flac image filename as: artist - [year] album?

Edit: Removed passage, as i realized that i was a moron!

Reg-editing is needed because when i press CTRL+F2 and then restart REACT and sets my ripping directory to 'D:\Temp', then REACT(because of your new scheme) will rip to My Music still! I can only fix this by editing the registry directly with your mod.

Your mod allready warns the user if the ripping directory in EAC hasen't been configured when launching REACT, so i don't see the problem in using the users own choise, rather than overwritng your own choise with a default value...

My point where that the --frame "TXXX[foo]:bar" syntax is the syntax of the newest metamp3 beta which isn't included in the REACT distro and that command isn't backwards compatible with the included metamp3 version...

But, if I CTRL+F2 (EAC/REACT closes) -> start REACT -> F9 and set folder -> close EAC/REACT -> start REACT -> F10, the files are going in the path I set. So, like I said, no registry editing needed if you restart after changing the folder.

I've just tried this, and it still dosen't work, even with the extra shutdown...

REACT suddenly started to complain about "Unable to move cuesheet. File does not exist......".

Did you try with prebeta4? Did that work? Have you recently installed "Sony Ericsson PC suite"? If yes, try closing the program from the systray icon and try REACT again.
