Yes an no.
I pretty much get the same result; the ripping process begins normally, but
before it completes only a certain number of tracks are saved to the folder
created with the Artists' name and Album title; the rest are dumped into a
"Unknown Album" subfolder of the aforementioned "Unknown Artist" folder.
Furthermore, when I (pointlessly) try to arrange the files by Artist, my
files will suddenly "disappear" and be rearranged in newly-titled "Unknown
Album" subfolders - all marked with the current date and time. I'm ripping
all of these songs to an external hard drive, but I can't imagine that's at
the root of this; I was having the same problem when I was just trying to
save these files to the "My Music" folder on my C: drive.
