Tried 'grip' - its judt completely dead, I can click on buttons, but nothing 
happens.

Tried 'sound-juicer' - better, but still a no-go. It reads TOC fine, but 
when I try to
read the tracks:

(sound-juicer:19342): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: gobject.c:882: object class 
`GstWavEnc' has no property named `metadata'

(sound-juicer:19342): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous 
GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL 
before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: encoder not initialised (input is not 
audio?)
(sound-juicer:19342): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gmarshal.c: line 587 
(g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__POINTER): assertion `n_param_values == 2' failed

Have not tried your script yet, but I would want mp3 output, so I'll have to 
see if I can
edit your script to suit.

John.
