Ripping in 2 formats?

[Música]

Can I rip the same CD in two different formats (e.g, FLAC and MP3) in MB, and will both album covers appear on my MB displays? If so, will/can this duplication be a problem for MB, Windows Explorer, or VLC on Android? Thank you.

You'll probably have to give each CD a different album title. Such as "My Album (flac)" and "My Album (mp3)"

I can't speak to the other applications you mentioned, but you'd probably have no issues if the album had different titles.

Yes, I see, thanks. I'm now reminded that when I was learning MB, I'd append "Disc #" to rips of multi-disc albums and wind up with multiple cover art. I didn't like it, and it took a while to understand the organizing importance of that album field.

Wonder why you want to do this.

If this is because you want to use the MP3 on a mobile, in a car, etc, , rip to FLAC only
Use the sync option to transcode to MP3
