There are number of buttons in the interface under the "Rip" tab. They function as follows:
Rip+Encode — This will cause Grip to rip and then encode all selected tracks.
Rip Only — This will cause Grip to rip all selected tracks, but not encode them.
Abort Rip and Encode — Clicking this button will abort all active rip and encode processes.
Abort Ripping Only — Clicking this button will abort ripping, but will leave encoding running.
DDJ Scn — Clicking this button will insert all track information for the current disc into DigitalDJ's database (if it is installed)
Rip partial track — If selected, Grip will configured to rip a portion of a single track (as specified by the "Start sector" and "End sector" values). The "Play" button can be used preview the selected portion.
In the bottom portion of the interface, Grip displays progress bars for the rip and encode processes. It also computes the speed of the processes as a function of normal playback speed (so 2.0x, for example, means that processing is running twice as fast as normal playback, on average). In addition, if Grip is using builtin cdparanoia to rip, there will be a "smilie" indicator next to the progress bar that reflects how much trouble Grip is having ripping the CD. The meaning of the different smiles are as follows:
Grip also places an indicator for both ripping and encoding the the LCD display. They show progress in %25 intervals, as can be seen in this example of Grip in "small" mode. In this case, we are almost finished ripping a track, and have encoded about a quarter of a track.
