WMA lossless in Windows media center ?

HI, i found very impressive the automation of Winds media center for copying CD to hard drive (cover included, automated folder creation, etc..) . However, i can´t find any options to ask windows media center to copy in WMA lossless, which is clearly how i would like to copy all my CDs on the Hard drive. Any hint ?

tks


PS: if someone found a way to use media center interface with output to any lossless format ( flac for instance if no answer fro wma lossless) , input more than welcome as welll :-)

The settings in Windows Media Player are the settings that Media Center uses.  Just start up Mediaplayer and change the "rip to" settings under options.  Generally, any changes that you make with Media Player's settings are reflected in Media Center.

You can't rip to anything using Media Player except what Microsoft wants you to use, but by using Windows Media Player Tag Support Extender (google it), you can at least play FLAC and a lot of other non-Microsoft codecs in Media Player and Media Center.
