k3b and ripping seems full of issues, unless i don't proceed correctly:
* Couldn't find settings for ripping in "configure k3b (eg: where to
save result by default, filename format, ogg quality)
* k3b does not seem to record actual settings entered -- have to reenter
everything for each new cd.
[few other similar]
Well, nothing here really terrible -- but I have ~ 100 cds to record...
help gratefully welcome. In the meanwhile, i'll explore wikpedia/cd
ripper for alternatives.
Well, k3b for kde4 is still in alpha, I believe (certainly an alpha is
the latest Gentoo has available, barring the live development tree
version), so it's likely not all these features are fully implemented
yet. I used it the other day for something, and it worked fine, but
while I can't remember exactly what features the kde3 version had, it did
seem like the kde4 version was missing some. However, for alpha, it
worked quite well indeed, and I was rather favorably impressed with how
it's coming along! =:^) (Too bad the same can't be said about kde4
itself, which despite claims to the contrary saying kde4 has been ready
for "normal" use since 4.2, I couldn't honestly say was proper release
quality even yet, tho it's improving fast, and 4.3 has attained what I'd
call late beta quality.)
So an alternative may indeed be better, particularly if you're doing 100
CDs worth and don't like the default defaults.
I've not tried it for that (or indeed, much at all), but perhaps the
audiocd: kioslave will do what you need? It is discussed elsewhere in
current threads. The default settings, including encoder quality, appear
to be in (the application formerly known as) kcontrol (aka generically,
system settings), advanced user settings, audio CDs. (And I see there a
CD device setting, which might be why it wasn't working for me in my very
limited tests as mentioned elsewhere, earlier.)
