You need to look at CDRipperThread::run(). Basically what happens is for 
each track an encoder object is created and an output filename is 
generated then the track is ripped; the metadata is saved to the 
database then finally the encoder is deleted. You would have to look at 
reusing the same encoder object for the tracks you would want in the 
same file.
