Rip to FLAC

[Fleet]

Hello,

I want to backup my music collection by ripping it to flac. Are there any good apps for that task in ports? I can't find anything. Also, if you know any apps that rips movies (dvd, etc) please share .

I use abcde for backing up cd's in FLAC format.

Could always try EAC via wine / VMware / Virtualbox.
There's also RubyRipper (unforunately not in ports).

Thanks for your answer, rusty. Could I get to see your config file for abcde? Also, do you use cue sheets?

Grip although it only mentions mp3 in the description, it does flac, ogg and wav. Also tags the files for you and creates a playlist.

I pretty much use the .abcde in that link. I don't use cue sheets but see that abcde's one (mkcue) isn't available.

You can however use audio/shntool to generate a cue sheet to edit.
