When a cd is inserted and CDDB is returning a column ':' in the title
AND when the title us used to create the filename, ripperX will
complain:

<quote>
Error when locking file
Make sure the WAV dir and MP# dir paths are correct and you have
permission to write to these directories
</quote>

Workaround: remove all columns ':' in the title fields.

HTH,

Richard.
