Is there any way to adjust the ripping speed of the WMP 11?

Question

Or does anybody know what the ripping speed of WMP 11 is?
Mine just seems so slow !

Answer 1

Click on the arrow at the bottom of the RIP tab and select
"format" then select mp3. Click on the arrow at the bottom of the RIP
tab again and this time select "bit rate" it will be set on the lowest
128kps. Select the next one up - 192kps and it should work straight
away. If you select higher bit rates it will also work
but the file sizes will be bigger.
You don't want the error correction - it slows
ripping right down.
OR:

Q: I want to rip at a WMA bitrate higher than 192kbps. How do I do this?
A: Set WMARecordRate under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences to whatever value you want. The UI won't show you that you're using that in the Rip tab, but it'll be at that value.

You may want to be careful before adjusting the speed of any burning program. I did it in some of my Nero burns and it was messed up in spots. Let the computer adjust the speed on the burning project because it knows what the processor will allow and is capable of in doing safely. Especially in your backup DVD burns..
